A Real-World Study on Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in Chinese Population

This study is a prospective cohort study aimed at exploring the baseline characteristics and treatment patterns of the Chinese population with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in real-world settings. The objective is to assess the real-world treatment approaches and longitudinal outcomes in this population.

Inclusion criteria

  • Willing and able to provide written informed consent (ICF) and any required privacy authorization before the start of the study.
  • Aged ≥18 years at the time of signing the written informed consent.
  • Diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) according to the 2023 Guideline for Diagnosis and Treatment of Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, meeting the following criteria:
  • Left ventricular wall thickness ≥15 mm in any segment at end-diastole, as assessed by echocardiography or cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
  • Left ventricular wall thickness ≥13 mm in individuals with a positive pathogenic gene test or those identified as members of a genetically affected family.
  • Exclusion of other cardiovascular diseases or systemic/metabolic diseases causing ventricular wall thickening.

Exclusion criteria

  • Uncontrolled primary hypertension.
  • Moderate or severe aortic valve stenosis and/or primary mitral valve disease with severe mitral regurgitation.
  • Confirmed infiltrative or storage diseases with a phenotype resembling hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (e.g., Fabry disease, amyloidosis).
  • Expected life expectancy <1 years.
  • Severe infections, liver failure, renal failure, or other life-threatening conditions.

No interventions were applied to the patients.

Primary outcomes

  1. Composite Cardiovascular Endpoints

    Time frame: 5 years

    Number of Participants with a composite cardiovascular endpoint consisting of ischemic stroke, heart failure hospitalization, and cardiovascular death

Secondary outcomes

  1. All-cause mortality

    Time frame: 5 years

    Rate of death resulting from any cause, encompassing both disease-related and non-disease-related factors

  2. Cardiovascular death

    Time frame: 5 years

    Rate of death resulting from cardiac diseases

  3. New-onset arrhythmia

    Time frame: 5 years

    Number of Participants with new-onset arrhythmia

  4. Sudden cardiac death (SCD)

    Time frame: 5 years

    Number of Participants suffer from sudden cardiac death

  5. Non-fatal acute myocardial infarction

    Time frame: 5 years

    Number of Participants suffer from non-fatal acute myocardial infarction

  6. Ischemic stroke

    Time frame: 5 years

    Number of participants suffer from ischemic stroke

  7. Heart failure hospitalization

    Time frame: 5 years

    The rehospitalization rate of participants due to heart failure

  8. New York Heart Association (NYHA) Classification

    Time frame: 5 years

    Percentage of participants with changes in NYHA classification

  9. Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-23 (KCCQ-23)

    Time frame: 5 years

    The KCCQ-23 is a disease-specific health status assessment tool consisting of 23 items that quantify physical limitation, symptoms, self-efficacy, social limitation, and quality of life related to heart failure. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better health status

  10. BNP/NT-proBNP

    Time frame: 5 years

    Changes in serum BNP/NT-proBNP concentrations compared to baseline

  11. Troponin T/I

    Time frame: 5 years

    Changes in serum cardiac troponin concentrations compared to baseline
