Study of children’s heart disease caused by MYBPC3 gene changes
This is an observational study that follows children under 18 with cardiomyopathy caused by certain MYBPC3 gene mutations. It aims to better understand how the disease changes over time, which may help future treatments be better targeted.
Houston, TexasAges birth–18 years - NCT05650658Recruiting
Compare two heart pacing options in people with weak heart function
This trial compares two types of “left-side” heart pacing to see which one works better in people with weak heart pumping. It may help guide the best pacing choice for improving heart function and symptoms.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06145035RecruitingPhase 2

This trial tests whether stem cells from donated umbilical cord blood can improve heart function in people with heart failure caused by blocked arteries. You'll receive one or more infusions of these cells through a vein.
Houston, TexasAges 21–85 - NCT04476901RecruitingPhase 2
Study of donor stem cell treatment for non-ischemic heart failure
This Phase 2 trial tests whether donor “MSC” cells can improve heart function in people with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy and reduced pumping strength. You may be eligible if your condition is already treated with standard heart medicines and you can safely undergo a heart catheterization and follow-up testing.

Dexrazoxane study to monitor heart damage in cancer survivors
This study tests dexrazoxane (DRZ) to see how it affects blood and heart-related “biomarkers,” or measurable signs of heart damage, after cancer treatment. It mainly targets survivors who may be at risk for cardiomyopathy (heart muscle weakness) or related heart failure.

Registry for heart rhythm ablation in VT or PVC
This study is a “registry,” meaning it collects information about people undergoing a procedure to treat abnormal heart rhythms like ventricular tachycardia (VT) or premature ventricular contractions (PVCs). It may help researchers better understand which patients benefit from the procedure and how it is done over time.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT06128629RecruitingPhase 3
A study of NTLA-2001 for transthyretin amyloidosis with heart problems
This study tests a new treatment, NTLA-2001, for people with a type of heart disease called transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy. It aims to see if the medicine can help improve heart function and quality of life.

Test treatment for dangerous heart rhythm episodes in LVAD patients
This trial studies a procedure to fix abnormal heart rhythms (ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation) in people who have an LVAD and a defibrillator (ICD) or an alternative device. It may help prevent future dangerous rhythm episodes after LVAD treatment.

Real-world registry for mavacamten and other obstructive HCM treatments
This study collects real-world information about people with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) who are being treated with mavacamten or other standard medicines. It aims to understand patient characteristics, treatment choices over time, and long-term outcomes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05511246RecruitingPhase 2
Alcohol injection for fast heart rhythm
This trial tests injecting ethanol (alcohol) into a vein near the heart to treat a dangerous fast heart rhythm called ventricular tachycardia. It may be an option for people who have an implanted defibrillator and have not found relief with other treatments.

What taking part in a cardiomyopathies study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
