What this trial studies

This observational study aims to gather data on pediatric patients with cardiomyopathy caused by MYBPC3 gene mutations. It will evaluate the disease course, burden of illness, risk factors, and quality of life in children under 18 years old. The study will also collect information on treatments and outcomes for these patients, providing valuable insights into this genetic condition.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include infants and children under 18 years with documented MYBPC3 mutations and a diagnosis of cardiomyopathy.

Not a fit: Patients who have received a cardiac transplant or died more than 10 years prior to the study initiation may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance understanding of MYBPC3 mutation-associated cardiomyopathy, leading to improved management and treatment strategies for affected children.

How similar studies have performed: While this study focuses on a specific genetic mutation, similar observational studies have shown success in understanding genetic cardiomyopathies and their impacts on patient outcomes.

Eligibility criteria

Retrospective

Inclusion Criteria:

* Data is available for patient \<18 years of age. Patients must be \<18 years of age at enrollment or at time of death.
* Documented results of genotyping showing the presence of at least one pathogenic or likely pathogenic MYBPC3 mutation (heterozygous, homozygous, or compound heterozygous).

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patient received cardiac transplantation or died \>10 years before study initiation. For homozygous or biallelic infants, data may be collected beyond this 10-year period.

Prospective

Inclusion Criteria:

For Infants:

* Infants who are homozygous or compound heterozygous for the known pathogenic truncating MYBPC3 mutations are eligible.

For all other participants:

* Age \<18 at entry into the prospective study.
* Documented results of genotyping identifying at least one pathogenic or likely pathogenic MYBPC3 mutation (heterozygous, homozygous, or compound heterozygous).
* Diagnosis of Cardiomyopathy (CM): HCM, DCM, RCM, mixed CM, or LVNC.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Concurrent participation in an interventional clinical trial unless approved by the sponsor.
* Severe noncardiac disease anticipated to significantly reduce life expectancy.
