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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.

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.

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.

This is a long-term study to check the safety of eplontersen over time in adults with transthyretin-mediated amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). It is mainly for people who already took the study medication before, or who joined an earlier related study and are doing well.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01076660Recruiting
MRI study to predict sudden cardiac death risk
This trial uses heart MRI images and measurements to look for warning signs that could predict sudden cardiac death. It focuses on people with significantly reduced heart pumping function who are being considered for an ICD to prevent sudden death.

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.
