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 16 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients of both sex over 16 year-old with HCM

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with known HCM or recently discovered with a wall thickness greater than or equal to15 mm without family background or> 13 mm in an HCM family context in the absence of other causes found capable of producing such a degree of hypertrophy
  • HCM apparently linked to a mutation of a protein of the sarcomere (identified mutation or absence of other causes of hypertrophy found when the mutation search was not performed or was unsuccessful)
  • Control subjects will be patients greater than or equal to 18 years without known cardiovascular disease or that may affect their ability to function, addressed to achieve a stress echocardiography for assessment of atypical symptoms, with a low pretest probability of coronary artery disease, and accepting blood sample before and after exercise. They do not realize Holter ECG or cardiac MRI as part of the study.

Who cannot join

  • Refusal of the patient
  • Age < 16 years old
  • Valvulopathy associated significant (grade 3 or 4 regurgitation, or severe stenosis) other than mitral insufficiency
  • Defibrillator, pacemaker, or other cons-indication or intolerance to achieving MRI
  • Unable to receive clear information (patient's intellectual default)
  • Under protective measure of justice

About this study

Fibrosis, myocardial deformation and biomarkers in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)

Read the detailed description

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a rare genetic disease (1), whose phenotypic expression is found in less than 1/1000 people, mainly linked to a mutation of a protein of the sarcomere (14 genes and 400 mutations identified nowadays). HCM occurs in about 50% of cases in young adults under the age of 30 years. Progress in the identification of the responsible mutation does not have allowed significant advances for the clinical management and evaluation of the prognosis of patients with HCM. In fact, the link between genotype and phenotype is poor in the HCM, so that identification of the mutation in approximately 60% of patients does not properly characterize the disease and its evolution. It is therefore necessary to identify new markers to better characterize HCM patients. Myocardial fibrosis could be a severity marker of the HCM but its consequences and determinants are little known or unknown.

The objective of this work is to identify the determinants and consequences of myocardial fibrosis in HCM, particularly the relationship between fibrosis and left ventricular dysfunction assessed by the analysis of myocardial deformation and between fibrosis and heart failure. The study of fibrosis, which concerns 30 to 70% of patients and replace 1 to 70% of the myocardial tissue, is made possible in vivo by analysis of delayed enhancement gadolinium in MRI. This work aims to study the relationship between myocardial fibrosis, heart function assessed by myocardial deformation, heart failure, and biological profile (proteomics) of patients at rest and after exertion.

This study is an observational research. Indeed, all examinations are done as part of usual care patients. Only additional tubes of blood are collected in the initial biological assessment.

What is being measured

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

  1. measurement of the overall longitudinal myocardial strain (in 2D strain)

    Measured: day 90

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. global myocardial longitudinal deformation (three-dimensional)

    Measured: day 90

  2. Transforming growth factor (TGF) blood dosage

    Measured: at year 3

  3. Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) blood dosage

    Measured: at year 3

  4. Periostin blood dosage

    Measured: at year 3

  5. Heart Failure Symptoms evaluation

    New York Heart Association (NYHA) stage, presence of congestive signs according to the Framingham Heart Study, functional capacity

    Measured: day 90

  6. type of heart failure

    sub aortic obstruction if gradient rest or effort greater than or equal to 30 mmHg, left ventricle (LV) systolic dysfunction assessed on the ejection fraction (EF) less than or equal to 50%, restrictive heart disease

    Measured: day 90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, run by Nantes University Hospital 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 3 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Sep 2021. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Thierry Le Tourneau, PU-PH (0617908670, thletourneau@yahoo.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

measurement of the overall longitudinal myocardial strain (in 2D strain) (time frame: day 90). 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 9 Sep 2021.
