Exercise and heart rhythm study for ARVC patients
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how exercise affects heart rhythm in people with ARVC, a genetic heart condition. Participation involves supervised exercise sessions and heart monitoring to better understand safe activity levels.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a confirmed diagnosis of ARVC (arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy).
- You have a specific genetic change (in PKP-2, DSG-2, or DSP genes) or have had genetic testing that found no clear cause.
- You are over 14 years old and have a BMI between 18.5 and 39.9.
- You have not fainted or had a cardiac arrest during exercise in the last 6 months.
- If you have a defibrillator (ICD) and take heart medications, you may still be eligible.
- You agree to avoid exercise, caffeine, and alcohol before test days.

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.
This trial tests a new gene therapy called TN-401 for people with ARVC caused by a specific PKP2 gene mutation. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and can help reduce dangerous heart rhythms.
This study uses a special type of heart scan (FAPI PET/CT) to better visualize and understand arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), a condition where the heart muscle weakens and causes irregular heartbeats. The scan may help doctors understand the disease better and improve patient care.
This study tests a cardiac rehabilitation program designed for people with a high genetic risk of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (a condition that affects the heart's rhythm and structure). It aims to see if a safe, supervised exercise plan can help improve heart function and quality of life.
This registry collects information from people with a specific heart condition called arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy who have an ICD (a device that helps control heart rhythm). The goal is to learn more about heart rhythm problems and how the ICD responds.
This study looks at the risk of a fast heart rhythm (ventricular tachycardia) in people with genetic heart muscle diseases. It tests whether having a specific genetic change affects the success of a heart ablation procedure.
