Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) refers to a phenomenon in which blood cells with somatic mutation circulate in the peripheral blood due to abnormal proliferation and differentiation of mutant hematopoietic cells.

CHIP is considered one of the aging phenomena, and the mutant blood cells increased by CHIP cause chronic inflammation, thereby increasing the occurrence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Therefore, CHIP is known to be closely related to poor prognosis of ischemic heart failure. Meanwhile, chronic inflammation may be involved in the development of non-ischemic myocardial disease, which is one of the major causes of heart failure.

This study will identify CHIP and perform NLRP3 inflammasome assay in 100 non-ischemic heart failure patients and evaluate the relationship between CHIP and inflammation, imaging markers of heart failure, Left ventricle reverse remodeling after guideline-directed medical treatment, and prognosis of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.

    Arms and Interventions

    Arm Intervention/Treatment
    Experimental

    Patients with heart failure without significant stenosis of the major epicardial coronary artery and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction below 40%

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Left ventricular reverse remodeling [3 months after guideline-directed medical treatment]

      a second measurement of left ventricular ejection fraction > 40% and a ≥10% increase from baseline left ventricular ejection fraction of ≤ 40%

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Clinical outcome [3 years after enrollment]

      Heart failure hospitalization or cardiovascular death
