Trial summary

: Fibrosis, in general, is a scarring process, which is characterized by fibroblast accumulation and excess deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, which leads to distorted organ architecture and function. The contribution of fibrogenesis to impaired cardiac function is increasingly recognized. Read more about this study

About this study

: Fibrosis, in general, is a scarring process, which is characterized by fibroblast accumulation and excess deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, which leads to distorted organ architecture and function. The contribution of fibrogenesis to impaired cardiac function is increasingly recognized. The fibrotic ECM causes increased stiffness and induces pathological signaling within cardiomyocytes resulting in progressive cardiac failure. Also, the excessive ECM impairs mechano-electric coupling of cardiomyocytes and increases the risk of arrhythmias. But today patient treatment and prognosis is based on ejection fraction quantification, QRS duration, and symptoms.

Hypothesis: the increased level of fibrosis quantified using T1 mapping technique, compared with normal value, is of prognostic value in patient with dilated cardiomyopathies under optimal treatment.

Methods: 330 patients are planned to be included and followed for 2 years

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Prognostic value of the increased level of myocardial fibrosis

    The long-term forecast of the patients affected by CMD will be estimated by the survival without event. The events considered in this study are included in an associating combined criterion:

    • Death(Deaths), whatever is its cause.
    • The heart transplant
    • Hospitalization for cardiac cause, including acute(sharp) cardiac insufficiency, disorder(confusion) of the rhythm, required by rehabilitation of the treatment(processing), the thrombus ventriculaire left, cerebrovascular accident.
    • Palpitation ventriculaire steady (ventriculaire extrasystole > 120 pulsation for minutes more than 30 on Holter of 24 hours(12 pm)).
    • Palpitation ventriculaire not steady

    Measured: two years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. hemodynamic consequences of the increased level of myocardial fibrosis

    The quantity of interstitial fibrosis at the time of the diagnosis will be correlated to the indicators of the reshaping left ventriculaire measured in echocardiography: decrease of more than 10 % of the fraction of ejection over 2 years or increase of the volume télédiastolique furthermore of 20ml / the year.

    Measured: txw years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CMR using T1 mapping technique in people with Cardiomyopathy, Dilated, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prognostic value of the increased level of myocardial fibrosis (time frame: two years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02352129, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 May 2026.
