Bromocriptine for Peripartum Cardiomyopathy
Houston, TexasThe study will enroll 200 women newly diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy within 5 months postpartum in a randomized placebo controlled trial of bromocriptine therapy to evaluate its impact on myocardial recovery and clinical outcomes. Given that bromocriptine prevents breastfeeding, an additional 50 women with peripartum cardiomyopathy excluded from the trial due to a desire to continue breastfeeding but meeting all other entry criteria will be followed in an observational cohort.

ASP2016 + Prednisolone for Friedreich Ataxia
Houston, TexasFriedreich 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.

CCM Device for Heart Failure
Houston, TexasThe goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that the OPTIMIZER® Integra CCM-D System (the "CCM-D System") can safely and effective convert induced ventricular fibrillation (VF) and spontaneous ventricular tachycardia and/or ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF) episodes in subjects with Stage C or D heart failure who remain symptomatic despite being on guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), are not indicated for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), and have heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≤40%).
Eligible subjects will be implanted with the CCM-D System. A subset of subjects will be induced into ventricular fibrillation "on the table" in the implant procedure room. During the follow-up period, inappropriate shock rate and device-related complications will be evaluated. The follow-up period is expected to last at least two years.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Cardiomyopathy clinical trials in Houston, TX 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 in Houston, TX 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 in Houston, TX 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 in Houston, TX 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 in Houston, TX 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 in Houston, TX ?
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 in Houston, TX ?
Most recently, we added Vutrisiran for Amyloid Cardiomyopathy, ASP2016 + Prednisolone for Friedreich Ataxia and Mavacamten for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy to the Power online platform.
