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: Adult patients will participate in the study, including those with a confirmed diagnosis of hypertrophic-phenotype cardiomyopathies (sarcomeric and non-sarcomeric HCM, Anderson-Fabry disease, amyloidosis), first-degree relatives of patients with a confirmed diagnosis of hypertrophic-phenotype cardiomyopathy, and carriers of genetic mutations associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Who may be able to join

  • A confirmed diagnosis of cardiomyopathy with a hypertrophic phenotype, according to current ESC guidelines; or a first-degree relative of a patient with a confirmed diagnosis of cardiomyopathy with a hypertrophic phenotype; or a carrier of a genetic mutation for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (carriers).
  • Patient with an indication to undergo cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) according to current ESC guidelines.
  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Written informed consent obtained

Who cannot join

  • History of previous myocardial infarction or myocardial revascularization (coronary artery bypass grafting or percutaneous coronary angioplasty) and/or evidence of coronary stenosis ≥ 50% on coronary CT scan or invasive coronary angiography.

About this study

This observational study aims to evaluate myocardial perfusion abnormalities using quantitative and qualitative cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) perfusion imaging in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) phenotypes, including sarcomeric and non-sarcomeric HCM, Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD), and cardiac amyloidosis. The study will also include first-degree relatives of affected patients and genetic mutation carriers. By comparing myocardial blood flow and perfusion patterns across these different conditions, the study seeks to identify distinctive perfusion signatures that may improve diagnostic differentiation, support risk stratification, and provide insights into the role of ischemia in fibrosis progression, arrhythmias, and long-term outcomes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Quantitative Perfusion Defects

    To evaluate differences in quantitative myocardial perfusion among different hypertrophic cardiomyopathy phenotypes, aiming to identify specific and distinctive perfusion abnormality patterns for each condition.

    Measured: Baseline and after 36 months

  2. Qualitative Perfusion Defects

    To evaluate differences in qualitative myocardial perfusion among different hypertrophic cardiomyopathy phenotypes, aiming to identify specific and distinctive perfusion abnormality patterns for each condition.

    Measured: Baseline and after 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HCM - Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and Anderson Fabry Disease, run by IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna 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 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Feb 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Luigi Lovato (+390512144740, luigi.lovato@aosp.bo.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Quantitative Perfusion Defects (time frame: Baseline and after 36 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 2 Feb 2026.
