Cardiomyopathies clinical trials in Massachusetts
We’re tracking 34 recruiting cardiomyopathies studies with a site in Massachusetts — including Phase 1/Phase 2, Phase 2, Phase 2/Phase 3 and Phase 4 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Massachusetts
- NCT06865482Recruiting
Understanding heart disease in Friedreich's ataxia
This study looks at how heart disease progresses in people with Friedreich's ataxia, a genetic condition that affects coordination and heart health. By taking part, you help researchers better understand the condition, which may guide future treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 6 years+ - NCT06644742Recruiting
PKP2 heart condition natural history study
This study is for people with a specific genetic heart condition (PKP2-related arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy) who already have an ICD. It does not test a new treatment but instead follows participants over time to learn more about the condition.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 12 years+ - NCT04500665RecruitingPhase 2
Colchicine for kidney-related heart inflammation
This Phase 2 trial tests whether colchicine can reduce inflammation and improve heart function in people with kidney disease and a certain type of heart problem. If you qualify, you’ll be closely monitored for side effects and lab changes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 21–80 - 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.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06034405Recruiting
Checking spine tissue for heart amyloidosis signs
This trial is looking at leftover tissue from past spine surgeries to see if it contains signs of a heart condition called TTR amyloidosis. It may help find people who have this condition early.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 50 years+ - NCT05836259RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
TN-201 for heart symptoms from MYBPC3 heart disease
This early trial tests TN-201 to see how safe it is and how well it works to reduce symptoms in adults with MYBPC3-related hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It’s designed to learn safe dosing, and you may be eligible if you have specific genetic heart changes and ongoing symptoms.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–75 - NCT05034432RecruitingPhase 4
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.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04848506Enrolling by invitationPhase 2/Phase 3
Long-term safety follow-up with aficamten for adults with HCM
This study checks how safe and well-tolerated aficamten is over the long run in adults with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). You may be eligible if you finished a prior Cytokinetics aficamten study and your heart pumping strength is in the required range.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT04520347Enrolling by invitation
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.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT01790152Recruiting
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.

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.

Common questions
- Are there cardiomyopathies clinical trials in Massachusetts?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 34 recruiting cardiomyopathies studies with a site in Massachusetts, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a cardiomyopathies study in Massachusetts?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Massachusetts to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Massachusetts, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a cardiomyopathies trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New cardiomyopathies studies open in Massachusetts regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
Clin2 helps you find and understand clinical trials and does not provide medical advice. Study data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov. Talk with your doctor about whether a specific trial is right for you.
