481 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This will be a two-arm investigator-initiated randomized controlled study of patients with nHCM and LV ejection fraction ≥50% and NYHA II-III symptoms, normal intrinsic conduction system and pre-existing suitable dual-chamber implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) systems. Patients will be randomly assigned to either personalized accelerated pacing (using the myPACE+ algorithm with mono-fractional exponent) or usual care groups. At baseline and after 3 months of pacing all patients will undergo a CPET, echocardiogram, blood work for NT-proBNP levels and complete the KCCQ-OSS and HCMSQ, questionnaires. The investigator team hypothesizes that personalized accelerated pacing will be safe and improve symptoms and heart-failure related quality of life, physical activity, pVO2, biomarkers (i.e. NT-proBNP), diastolic parameters and cardiac structure.

Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTR) with Cardiomyopathy
The purpose of this study is to learn about the natural progression of DCM (dilated cardiomyopathy) caused by BAG3 gene mutations. DCM is a condition as the heart muscle is weakened and the heart becomes enlarged. This makes it hard for the heart to pump enough blood for the body. The study is seeking up to about 35 participants who have: * BAG3 mutation (change in the gene) that causes or is likely to cause dilated cardiomyopathy * NYHA (New York Heart Association) Class I-IV at screening (Stage B-D) * Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction less than or equal to 50% (meaning reduced heart function) All participants in this study will receive their usual treatment. The investigators will observe the natural progression of people who have BAG3 DCM. This will help the investigators better understand the disease and aid in future research. Participants will take part in this study for one year. During this time, participants will visit the site at least 4 times (about every 3 months). Participants will undergo study procedures and give information about their health. These procedures will include a physical exam, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, echocardiography, ECG monitoring, activity monitoring, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and blood tests. Participants will answer questions about health and quality of life. The study team will also call participants about 1 time over the phone.

This study will also collect information on treatments, procedures and outcome in infants and children up to 18 yrs who have this mutation.
Cardiomyopathy
Transthyretin is a protein produced in the liver that transports thyroid hormone and vitamin A. A single substitution of an amino acid in the structure of TTR can result in a relatively unstable protein, the breakdown products of which (predominantly monomers) aggregate abnormally and produce proteinaceous deposits in nerves and the heart. These deposits are known as amyloid and produce progressive nerve and heart damage. Amyloidosis due to a mutant TTR is usually an autosomal dominant and hence is a familial condition. Wild-type TTR is also capable of producing amyloid deposits which predominantly involves the heart (rather than the nervous system) resulting in a progressive decrease in cardiac function with increasing signs of heart failure. This study aims to determine whether subcutaneous injection of an antisense oligonucleotide drug, known as ION-682884, that has been specifically designed to reduce production of the protein transthyretin by the liver, can slow or stop the progression of TTR amyloid cardiomyopathy as compared to historical controls, using advanced echocardiography and cardiac MRI. This study drug will only be administered to patients who have completed a 24-month study of a similar drug, inotersen (clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT037028289).The study also aims to determine the tolerability and safety of this drug when administered over a 36+-month period to patients with TTR amyloid cardiomyopathy. The study duration is open-ended and will continue either until this agent is approved by the FDA, or production is discontinued based on results of ongoing double-blinded studies.
Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiopathy
Background: HCM is a genetic heart disease. It can cause fatigue, chest pain, or even death. For more than 50 years, a surgery called septal myectomy has been used to help people with this disease. Dr. Andrew G. Morrow originated the surgery and performed it more than 200 times at NIH starting in 1960. Researchers want to learn the long-term success of this surgery. Objective: To determine long-term survival at least 35 years after surgical myectomy at NIH and examine data for people who are confirmed to be deceased or alive. Eligibility: People who had surgical myectomy by Dr. Morrow from 1960 to 1983. Design: This study uses images and data that were obtained in the past. Many of the participants are deceased. Most of the others are no longer being followed at the NIH. The medical records of people treated by Dr. Morrow were microfiched. These records can be accessed at the NIH. The records will be searched for keywords to find participants for this study. Participants clinical data, such as lab testing and imaging, will be used. Other data collected as part of the original study will also be used. Researchers will use participants name, date of birth, and Social Security number to learn if they are alive or deceased. If they are deceased, researchers will try to find the age of death. Online databases and search engines will also be used. Survival data will be compared to data from the general U.S. population for the same time period. Data will be stored in a database that is password protected. The study will last about 1 year.

7 Tesla MRI is a new magnetic field strength that has become available at Penn for cardiovascular MRI. This new scanner has potential to improve assessment of cardiovascular disease due to its increased signal-to-noise ratio, higher spatial resolution, and response to magnetic properties of tissue at high field. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of 7 T CMR. Secondly, we wish to investigate its use, to improve clinical and research MRI. Altogether, 7 T may permit better clinical diagnosis of cardiomyopathy.

Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) coexist in patients with heart failure (HF) and LV dysfunction. Frequent PVCs have shown to induce a reversible cardiomyopathy (PVC-CM). This clinical pilot study will enroll 36 patients with frequent PVCs (burden \>10%) and CM (LVEF \<45%) and randomize them to either: 1) RFA or 2) AADs. Prior to treatment, patients will undergo a baseline cardiac MR if clinically indicated followed by 3-month observation period (optimal HF medical therapy). Changes in LV function/scar, PVC burden/arrhythmias and clinical/functional status (QOL, HF symptoms and admissions, NYHA class) and adverse events will be assessed throughout the observation period and compare with PVC suppression strategies (RFA or AAD). Similar comparison will be made between RFA and AAD treatment groups during a 12-month follow up using a Prospective Randomized Open, Blinded End-point (PROBE) study design. The treatment regimens will be compared in an intention-to-treat analysis. In addition, a total of 20,000 consecutive ambulatory ECG Holter monitors from all participating centers will be screened to identify all patients with probable diagnosis of PVC-CM. This pilot study is intended to estimate the prevalence of this clinical entity and pave the way for a large full scale randomized trial to identify best treatment strategy for patients with PVC-CM. Treating and reversing this underestimated PVC-CM may improve patient's health and subsequently decrease HF healthcare spending.
