Atrial fibrillation ablation to prevent heart damage in women and men
This trial tests whether a procedure called AF ablation (which treats irregular heartbeats) can stop further damage to the heart muscle caused by atrial fibrillation. It may help people with both atrial fibrillation and early signs of heart muscle weakening.
GroningenAges 65–80 - NCT07695701RecruitingPhase 4
Heart imaging study for a new ATTR-CM treatment
This trial uses heart scans to see how the drug acoramidis affects heart structure and function in people with a specific type of heart disease called ATTR cardiomyopathy. It may help doctors understand if the treatment is working.

Understanding heart risk in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy
This study looks at heart health in people with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy to find better ways to predict and track heart problems. The goal is to improve future treatment trials.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06311708Recruiting
PKP2-related heart condition natural history study
This study looks at how plakophilin 2 (PKP2)-related arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) progresses over time. You'll give blood samples to check for antibodies to a virus used in gene therapy, and help doctors understand the disease better.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 14–65 - NCT06570902Recruiting
Heart monitor vest after first bypass surgery
This study tests a wearable heart monitor vest (WCD) for people who have had their first coronary bypass surgery and have a weakened heart pump (ejection fraction below 35%). The vest watches for dangerous heart rhythms and can shock the heart back to normal if needed.
Bad Nauheim, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT06146660Recruiting
Mavacamten safety study in Korean patients with oHCM
This study checks how safe the drug mavacamten is for Korean patients with a type of heart disease called obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM). It is for people who are already prescribed the drug by their doctor.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05332691Recruiting
Beating-heart septal myectomy for thick-heart blockage
This trial studies surgery that removes part of the thick heart muscle while the heart is still beating to relieve a blockage that makes blood leaving the heart harder. It may help people with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy whose symptoms persist despite medication.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 8 years+ - NCT05321875RecruitingPhase 3
Candesartan to prevent heart failure in certain gene carriers
This trial tests whether candesartan (a blood-pressure medicine) can delay or prevent heart muscle weakening in people who carry a disease-causing dilated cardiomyopathy gene variant but still have fairly strong heart pumping. Participants are randomly assigned to candesartan or a placebo to see which one keeps the heart healthier over time.
Majadahonda, MadridAges 18–64 - NCT07658222Recruiting
Understanding heart changes in advanced cirrhosis
This study is looking at how cirrhosis affects the heart (called cirrhotic cardiomyopathy). It aims to understand the connection between advanced liver disease and heart function, which may help improve care for people with cirrhosis.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cardiomyopathies?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 321 recruiting cardiomyopathies studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a cardiomyopathies trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a cardiomyopathies trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
