Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Genetic analysis will compare 500 patients implanted with an ICD for primary prevention and having received an appropriate shock and another 500 patients implanted with an ICD for primary prevention and have not received appropriate shock after a minimum follow-up three years before inclusion. To allow the matching of two groups, it requires to recruit 500 patients in the "appropriate treatment" group and 1000 patients in the "no event" group.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients implanted for primary prevention, an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) single or double room, for severe cardiomyopathy (EF <35%)
  • Patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.- "Appropriate treatment" group: patients who had a rhythmic event (before or after inclusion) appropriately treated either by administering an electric shock or by antiarrhythmic stimulation
  • Group "no event" patients who have never received treatment or electrical antiarrhythmic stimulation and with a minimum follow-up of three years before inclusion and did not receive proper treatment during the follow up period of the study

Who cannot join

  • Patients implanted with an ICD for primary prevention in the context of a family hereditary disease (long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, ventricular tachycardia catecholergic right ventricular dysplasia ...).
  • Patients with left ventricular function greater than 35%.
  • Patients implanted with a defibrillator function resynchronization.
  • Patients minors, adults under guardianship and protected persons are eligible under this project.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of polymorphisms pre-selected candidates (or by direct sequencing by High Resolution Melting).

    Measured: 4 years

  2. Identification of polymorphisms frequent (> 5% in the general population) by association study ( "Genome Wide Association Study '(GWAS)) using genotyping technology broadband Axiom (Affymetrix).

    Measured: 4 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiomyopathy, run by Nantes University Hospital at 18 sites 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 23 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites 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?

Prevalence of polymorphisms pre-selected candidates (or by direct sequencing by High Resolution Melting). (time frame: 4 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 23 Jan 2018.
