NCT05885412
This Phase 1 dose escalation trial will assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of a single dose intravenous infusion of RP-A601 in high-risk adult patients with PKP2-ACM.
NCT06174220
The TaRGET study is a multi-centre, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the potential therapeutic efficacy of tideglusib, a glycogen synthase kinase-3 β inhibitor, in genotype positive arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy.
NCT07354646
The goal of this observational study is to create a comprehensive real-world spectrum of T1 mapping measurements across different heart conditions. We aim to establish reference values for how heart tissue characteristics vary in various diseases, which will help doctors better interpret these advanced MRI measurements in clinical practice. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the normal T1 mapping values for different heart diseases, and how do they compare to healthy hearts? Can we use the simpler "native T1" measurement (without contrast dye) instead of the more complex "ECV" measurement (which requires contrast dye) for diagnosis? Patients with various myocardial conditions will undergo CMR T1 mapping scans. We will analyze the MRI images and clinical records to establish disease-specific reference ranges for T1 mapping parameters, and validate the diagnostic accuracy of T1 mapping
NCT06976606
An observational study to assess real-world patient characteristics and clinical course of disease in participants with PKP2-ACM.

Non-ischemic cardiomyopathies (NICM) represent a heterogeneous group of pathologies characterized by absence of obstructive disease of the epicardial coronary vessels and distinct structural and functional changes of the myocardium. The main identified forms include dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM), and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy proper (ACM). More recently, further forms of cardiomyopathy have been described, less common and not uniquely classifiable, including: uncompressed myocardium (LVNC), peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM), structural correlates of arrhythmogenic mitral valve prolapse (AMVP), Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD), NICM associated with multi- system neuromuscular or autoimmune diseases, lysosomal diseases, glycogenosis, mitochondrial cytopathies and canal diseases with structural substrates. Finally, there are "overlap" forms, characterized by the sharing in the same subject of characteristic aspects of two or more of the above- mentioned diseases; and of the "undefined" forms, which to date do not reach the diagnostic criteria for any of the above-mentioned diseases. To the best of current knowledge, there are two points discovered in scientific research, namely the description of the arrhythmogenic and "inflammatory" phenotypes in a broad sense, which are summarized here with the acronym AINICM. In detail: 1. Arrhythmic manifestations account for the arrhythmogenic component of AINICM, which is not limited to ACM proper. In fact, most of the above diseases have a non-arrhythmic clinical presentation and a prevailing tendency to evolve towards a picture of cardiovascular decompensation. Although sudden arrhythmic death has been described throughout the spectrum of AINICM, early arrhythmic manifestations of such diseases have an unknown prevalence, an uncertain association with different disease genotypes and phenotypes, and still uncertain predictivity of long-term arrhythmic risk. At the same time, optimal diagnostic and therapeutic pathways in arrhythmias associated with AINICM are still being studied. 2. Myocardial inflammation (M-Infl) accounts for the inflammatory component of AINICM, and has recently been described in association with many AINICM on a genetic basis, including undefined and arrhythmic forms. The data is of high interest not only in the diagnostic, but also in prognostic and therapeutic field. In fact, on the one hand the presence of M-Infl seems to have a physio- pathological role in AINICM; on the other, as already known in myocarditis, the optimal therapeutic paths of arrhythmias may differ in patients with and without M-Infl; in particular, also in the light of the preliminary data available in adult and paediatric AINICM, the inflammatory forms are expected to respond better to immunosuppressive therapy, the arrhythmogenic ones to an ablative therapy with frequent need of implantation of cardiac devices. Based on the clinical presentation, NICM patients will be divided into arrhythmic (AINICM) and non-arrhythmic patients as study and control groups , respectively. The AINICM group will include presentation with ventricular fibrillation (VF), either sustained or non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT; NSVT), frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVC), supraventricular arrhythmias (SVA) and bradyarrhythmias (BA). Clinical presentations other than arrhythmic, including chest pain and heart failure, will define the control group. In parallel, as shown in Figure 1, patients with any evidence of M-Infl will be compared with those showing no signs of M-Infl.
NCT06352307
This study will include patients diagnosed with Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi 'an Jiaotong University and other centers, and collect clinical data and biological samples of patients with different ACM phenotypes. Through the establishment of disease cohort and long-term follow-up, to explore the disease characteristics, development law, clinical characteristics, natural course of disease and long-term prognosis of ACM.
