About this study

Heart failure (HF), a current worldwide pandemic with an unacceptable high level of morbidity and mortality, brings an enormous medical and societal burden. Chronic HF is characterized by progressive alteration of cardiac structure and function. But the molecular mechanism of these alterations is still not well-established and needs to be discussed further. HF is a highly heterogeneous disease that can be caused by a multiple of diseases. Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) are the main causes of this syndrome. Although HF is the common manifestation of DCM and ICM, the etiology and pathogenesis are different. Understanding the different pathophysiological mechanisms will contribute to the prevention and individualized therapy of heart failure. Therefore, this study aims to observation the different characteristics of the molecular biology and clinical courses in DCM and ICM patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure, run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 Jan 2019. 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 China. 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 Zhangwei Chen (+86 021 64041990, chen.zhangwei@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

NYHA functional class (time frame: one year after enrolled). 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 9 Jan 2019.
