UIC Multi-Ethnic DCM Registry
NCT07145138
This study is recruiting at 1 US site in 1 state, according to its ClinicalTrials.gov record last updated .
Summary
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a condition where the heart loses its ability to pump blood throughout the body, is a common cause of death in the United States (US). It affects minorities more frequently and appears to causes greater harm than Whites. However, almost all research related to DCM has been performed in Whites, where up to half of cases run in the family. Several genes have been identified that cause the disease, but we are unsure if these same genes are also responsible for DCM in African Americans or Hispanic/Latino patients.
