St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07600177RecruitingPhase 4
Switching Heart Medicines: Mavacamten to Aficamten
This study tests switching from mavacamten to aficamten, two newer medicines that help improve heart function in people with a thickened heart muscle (HCM) that blocks blood flow. The goal is to see if aficamten works as well or better.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18–90 - NCT06679946Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Study of Vutrisiran for heart condition from TTR amyloidosis
This study tests a drug called vutrisiran for people with a condition called transthyretin amyloidosis that affects the heart. It is for patients who have already been in certain earlier studies of patisiran or vutrisiran.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05667493Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term safety follow-up for eplontersen in ATTR heart disease
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.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07207811RecruitingPhase 3
Study of coramitug for heart failure from ATTR amyloidosis
This study tests an investigational medicine called coramitug in people with heart failure caused by ATTR amyloidosis, a condition where abnormal protein builds up in the heart. The goal is to see if it can slow or improve heart function.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06865482Recruiting
Study of Friedreich's Ataxia With Cardiomyopathy
This study follows people with Friedreich's ataxia (FA) who also have a heart condition called cardiomyopathy. By tracking how the disease progresses over time, researchers hope to better understand FA-related heart problems.
St Louis, MissouriAges 6 years+ - NCT06964464RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two heart failure medications in ICD patients
This trial compares two beta-blocker medications, carvedilol and metoprolol succinate, to see which one works better for people with heart failure who have an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). If you are currently taking metoprolol succinate, you may be able to switch to carvedilol and help researchers find the best treatment.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - 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.
Columbia, MissouriAges Any age - 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.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 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.

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.
