This study aims to identify how useful polygenic risk score (PRS) and integrated risk scoring (IRS) is in both helping doctors to treat and manage their patients and identifying people at risk of developing coronary artery disease.

The purpose of this research is to answer the following questions:

• Does PRS/IRS influence how doctors treat or manage patients?
• Does PRS/IRS identify patients with increased risk for coronary artery disease?
• Does PRS/IRS influence patient outcomes, including cholesterol levels, occurrence of heart attack, and presence of coronary artery disease risk factors?
• Does PRS/IRS affect patient understanding of risk for developing coronary artery disease?

This study is being done to develop a serum and tissue bank for future research of patients with heart failure, mechanical circulatory support and/or cardiothoracic transplants. This blood/tissue will be used for three principle purposes: (1) laboratory tests which will be available in the future but that are not currently available and which may be of benefit to the patient, (2) review of previous patient laboratory results made necessary by development of a new disease process by the patient, and (3) future unspecified research purposes.

The purpose of this study is to validate a precision genetic testing approach guided by machine learning (ML)-based models.

To determine biomarker responses to Entresto™in patients with Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) and who have high or low serum neprilysin (NEP) levels.

In order to facilitate future interventional trials, this study in participants with cardiomyopathy attributable to pathologic BAG3 mutations aims to comprehensively describe baseline characteristics and disease progression. This study will characterize circulating, imaging, and clinical biomarkers in BAG3 Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) to understand biomarker correlations, as well as to the clinical course of BAG3 DCM over time.

The purpose of this study is to establish safety and preliminary effectiveness of treatment with MYK-491 in patients with primary dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) due to MYH7 or TTN variants .

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and impact of screening FDR of DCM probands using a mobile ECG with the ability to transmit the ECG for cloud-based AI analysis to detect reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). This protocol will examine the impact of incorporating the screening AI enhanced ECG into SOC recommendations (screening TTE).

This study is an observational study to determine predictors of sudden cardiac death or appropriate ICD therapy in patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. Patients will be followed for 36 months for the occurrence of sudden cardiac death

The purpose of this study is to develop an RNA-seq based peripheral blood assay predictive of inflammation/rejection on allograft biopsy in adult heart transplant recipients.
