Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is a disease where the normally occurring transthyretin (TTR) protein falls apart and forms amyloid, a sticky plaque- like substance that accumulates in different organs in the body and can cause damage to the organ. There are two ways that the TTR protein can fall apart. One way occurs as a person ages, where the normal TTR protein can fall apart and form amyloid that may no longer be sufficiently cleared by the body. This type of ATTR is known as wild-type ATTR (ATTRwt). The other way occurs when a person inherits a defective TTR gene that causes the TTR protein to spontaneously fall apart. This form of the disease is known as variant ATTR (ATTRv) and can be detected in adults by a genetic test of their TTR gene before they age. Amyloid build-up in the heart causes the heart wall to become thick and stiff and can result in heart failure and even death. Accumulation of TTR amyloid in the heart is known as transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy or ATTR-CM. Amyloid can also deposit in the nerve tissues leading to nerve problems. Accumulation of TTR in the nerves is known as transthyretin amyloid polyneuropathy or ATTR-PN. Acoramidis is an experimental drug designed to bind tightly to TTR in the blood and stabilize its structure, so it does not form the harmful amyloid plaques that can cause damage to organs. This study is intended to determine if treatment with acoramidis in participants with ATTRv who have not yet developed any symptoms of disease can prevent or delay the development of ATTR-CM or ATTR-PN disease. If adults with an inherited defective TTR gene are treated early before any of the symptoms of disease have developed, it may be possible to delay the onset or prevent the disease entirely.

Friedreich Ataxia is a rare condition that causes damage to the nervous system and muscles. People with Friedreich Ataxia have difficulty walking, lose sensation in their arms and legs, and have slurred speech. It can also affect the heart and many people with Friedrich Ataxia develop serious heart problems. Friedreich Ataxia is a genetic condition which means a faulty gene is passed down through families. This type of gene therapy treats a genetic condition by providing a healthy copy of the gene. At the time this study started, there was no approved treatment for heart problems in people with Friedreich Ataxia. In this study, ASP2016 is being tested in humans for the first time. The people taking part are adults with Friedreich Ataxia who have heart problems. The main aims of the study are to check the safety of ASP2016 and how people cope with (tolerate) ASP2016. ASP2016 is given as a slow injection into a vein. This is called an infusion. People will also take tablets of a medicine called prednisolone. This is taken to stop the immune system interfering with ASP2016. Each person in the study will be given 1 single infusion of ASP2016. Different small groups will receive lower or higher doses of ASP2016. Each person will stay overnight in the clinic for at least 1 night after their infusion. For the first few months, people will visit the clinic regularly. There may be the option of home visits by a study nurse at some visits. At the 6-month and 12-month visits extra tests, procedures, and scans will be done. One of these is an ECHO (echocardiogram) scan. This is like an ultrasound scan for the heart. Another is an endomyocardial biopsy. A tiny piece of their heart tissue is removed (biopsy). A flexible hollow tube (catheter) goes into the blood vessels up to the heart. Then, a small device on the end of the catheter takes a tiny piece of heart tissue (about the size of a pencil tip). Another is a cardiac MRI. This takes pictures of the inside of the heart using a powerful magnet. Another is a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). This involves moving a specially designed set of bicycle pedals using hands and arms. This will check how the lungs, heart and muscles are affected during exercise. After the 12-month visit, people will visit the clinic every few months for up to a few years.

Over the last decade, radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has become an established treatment for ventricular arrhythmias (VA). Due to the challenging nature of visualizing lesion formation in real time and ensuring an effective transmural lesion, different surrogate measures of lesion quality have been used. The Ablation Index (AI) is a variable incorporating power delivery in its formula and combining it with CF and time in a weighted equation which aims at allowing for a more precise estimation of lesion depth and quality when ablating VAs. AI guidance has previously been shown to improve outcomes in atrial and ventricular ablation in patients with premature ventricular complexes (PVC). However research on outcomes following AI-guidance for VT ablation specifically in patients with structural disease and prior myocardial infarction remains sparse. The investigators aim at conducting the first randomized controlled trial testing for the superiority of an AI-guided approach regarding procedural duration.

This research study is testing whether an experimental drug, called SRD-001, is safe and helps the weakened heart of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) regain its ability to effectively pump blood to the rest of the body. SRD-001 is a form of gene therapy. The goal of SRD-001 gene therapy is to provide the heart muscle cells with extra copies of the SERCA2a gene so that they can produce more SERCA2a protein to help the heart muscle cells squeeze/contract better. Researchers will compare SRD-001 treated participants with no-treatment participants; all participants will continue to take their current heart medications. All participants will be followed very closely for 2 years and undergo cardiac magnetic resonance imaging of their heart at baseline, year 1 and year 2 along with assessment of upper limb function and lung function. After the 2 years of close follow-up, all participants will roll over into long-term follow-up where they will be called biannually for information on their current medical status.

This Phase 1b/2a study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of genistein in patients with Transthyretin (TTR) Amyloidosis. The focus is on its impact on inflammatory and cardiometabolic biomarkers, along with the effects on cardiac function and exercise capacity. Blood samples will be collected at baseline, following each dose of genistein, and after a six-week placebo washout period. These samples will undergo extensive analyses, including profiling for inflammatory cytokines and novel molecular markers, and routine tests like CBC, Chem 7, LFT, HbA1c, NT-proBNP, CRP, troponin T, and serum TTR. RNA-seq analyses on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and isolation of plasma exosomes for inflammatory biomarkers are also part of the protocol. Following ESC/AHA guidelines, echocardiography will assess cardiac structure and function, focusing on the left and right ventricles and valvular function. Additionally, exercise capacity will be evaluated through a standardized 6-minute walk test, and NT-proBNP levels will be measured as a cardiac stress biomarker. The trial will include an 18-week follow-up period post-enrolment, with the primary endpoint being the change in inflammatory markers from baseline to three months. Secondary endpoints are cardiac function and exercise capacity changes over the same timeframe. This study aims to provide significant insights into genistein's therapeutic potential for TTR Amyloidosis and its broader implications in managing heart failure. Following ethical committee approval and written informed consent, the Investigators aim is to enroll 40 participants. This is an open-label study. Each patient will receive genistein by mouth: 250 mg twice a day for 4 weeks (500 mg total/day), 500 mg twice a day for 4 weeks (1000 mg total/day), and 750 mg twice a day (1500 mg total/day) for an additional 4 weeks. This will be followed by a 6-week washout period to conclude the study. An 18-month study is anticipated based on the average enrollment rates. Results from this study are expected to offer critical insights for future larger studies.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test IC14 (atibuclimab) in patients with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) and who have an implantable cardoverter/defibrillator in place. ACM is also called arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARV) or arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). The main questions the study aims to answer are the effect of treatment on blood markers of inflammation, safety, and pharmacokinetics. There will also be measurements of myocardial imaging of C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2+) immune cells (optional), monitoring of cardiac arrhythmias using the patient's pre-existing intracardiac cardioverter/defibrillator (ICD) and a Holter monitor, electrocardiogram (ECG), echocardiogram (ECHO), and blood tests. Results will be compared to baseline; there is no inactive placebo treatment group. Participants will be asked to undergo screening and baseline testing, then receive 4 intravenous infusions with blood measurements before and after the infusion (including 24, 48, and 72 hours and 7, 14, and 28 days). Participants will be offered specialized scanning of the heart muscle, and will be asked to provide recordings from their ICD, undergo Holter monitoring twice, and have electrocardiograms (ECG), echocardiograms (ECHO) and blood tests.

The Canadian CABG or PCI in Patients With Ischemic Cardiomyopathy (STICH3C) trial is a prospective, unblinded, international multi-center randomized trial of 754 subjects enrolled in approximately 45 centers comparing revascularization by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vs. coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with multivessel/left main (LM) coronary artery disease (CAD) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The primary objective is to determine whether CABG compared to PCI is associated with a reduction in all-cause death, stroke, spontaneous myocardial infarction (MI), urgent repeat revascularization (RR), or heart failure (HF) readmission over a median follow-up of 5 years in patients with multivessel/LM CAD and ischemic left ventricular dysfunction (iLVSD). Eligible patients are considered by the local Heart Team appropriate and amenable for non-emergent revascularization by both modes of revascularization. The secondary objectives are to describe the early risks of both procedures, and a comprehensive set of patient-reported outcomes longitudinally.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Cardiomyopathy clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Cardiomyopathy clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Cardiomyopathy trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Cardiomyopathy is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Cardiomyopathy medical study ?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Cardiomyopathy clinical trials ?

Most recently, we added Tideglusib for Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy, Acoramidis for Amyloidosis and Vutrisiran for Amyloid Cardiomyopathy to the Power online platform.
