NCT ID NCT07351838

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at a recently identified heart condition called non-dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy (NDLVC), where the heart muscle is abnormal but not enlarged. Researchers will review medical records and heart MRI scans from 1,000 patients to find which scan features best predict serious events like death or need for a heart transplant. The goal is to create a better way to identify high-risk patients and guide their care.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Non-dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy (NDLVC), formally recognized in the 2023 ESC guidelines as a distinct entity,1 encapsulates patients with non-ischemic fibrosis or fatty replacement or isolated systolic dysfunction without ventricular dilatation.

Ages

16 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * age ≥ 16 years; * indexed left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDVi) \<96 mL/m2 in females and \<105 mL/m2 in males at baseline cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR); * either left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \<50% and/or non-ischemic left ventricular (LV) scar/fatty replacement at baseline cardiac magnetic resonance. Exclusion Criteria: * lacked enhanced CMR images due to contraindications for receiving gadolinium contrast, such as severe renal disease; * ischemic heart disease, defined as stenosis of \>50% in a major epicardial coronary artery underwent coronary computed tomography angiography or coronary angiography, ischemic late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) pattern on CMR indicating prior infarction, or prior coronary revascularization; * abnormal loading conditions, defined as moderate to severe valvular heart diseases, congenital heart diseases, uncontrolled hypertension; * systemic rheumatologic diseases or sarcoidosis; * diagnostic criteria for other cardiomyopathies according to the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) definitions.
