What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of the association between hormonal deficits (single or multiple), miRNA profile and clinical/functional indices in patients with heart failure

    Patients will be followed with the goal of determining whether the deficits hormonal deficits have an impact on prognosis. In the pilot study, a significant benefit is expected in terms of improved quality of life and physical performance of patients following adequate hormone replacement treatment. In addition, the clinical relevance of the association between anabolic deficits (single or multiple), miRNA expression profile, vitamin D levels, and clinical/functional indices in patients with HCI in order to identify novel biomarkers for the progression of human collagenase inhibitor HCI

    Measured: 1-48 months

  2. Evaluation of clinical and morphological effects where necessary in patients With multiple hormonal deficits in addition to standard medical therapy

    Evaluation of the prognostic impact of hormone deficits and miRNA levels in a large population of heart failure patients

    Measured: 1-48 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Patients With Ischemic or Idiopathic Dilated Cardiomyopathy, run by IRCCS SYNLAB SDN at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 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 15 Mar 2023. 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 Italy. 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?

Evaluation of the association between hormonal deficits (single or multiple), miRNA profile and clinical/functional indices in patients with heart failure (time frame: 1-48 months). 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 15 Mar 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
