Could a simple blood thinner stop strokes before they start in heart disease patients?

NCT ID NCT07202897

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether the blood thinner rivaroxaban can prevent strokes, heart attacks, and death in people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) who have early signs of atrial damage but normal heart rhythm. About 532 adults aged 40-80 with HCM and reduced left atrial strain will be randomly assigned to rivaroxaban or a placebo. The goal is to see if early treatment can reduce serious events before atrial fibrillation develops.
