Study genetics of inherited heart and muscle conditions
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at genetic causes of inherited heart (cardiovascular) and muscle/nerve (neuromuscular) conditions. You may be asked about your family history and possibly genetic samples to help connect symptoms to specific genetic changes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You (or your loved one) have a suspected inherited heart or muscle/nerve condition
- You may be included at any age
- It’s especially helpful if more than one family member has been affected
- You will likely be excluded if there is no suspicion of an inherited heart or muscle/nerve disorder

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is looking for people with inherited heart muscle disease that may be genetic. It uses advanced genetic testing to better understand the cause.
This study looks at people with unusual or rare heart problems, or people with a family history of these issues. Doctors and researchers may collect and study your blood or tissue (and possibly store samples) to learn what causes the condition and how it may affect the heart.
This research study evaluates people with inherited neurological conditions (nervous system disorders that run in families) and their relatives. Researchers aim to better understand these conditions and improve diagnosis through clinical exams and genetic testing.
This study looks at the genes of people whose heart muscle becomes weak due to a fast or irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation or flutter). The goal is to better understand why this happens in some people and not others.
This study looks at the genes behind cardiomyopathy (a disease of the heart muscle). It may help explain why it happens in your family and guide better care for you and relatives.
This study looks at genetic (DNA) changes that may cause cardiomyopathy, a disease where the heart muscle is weakened. It may help families understand possible causes and inform future care.
