Study summary

Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is a heritable heart condition that leads to the thickening of the heart muscle and causes obstruction of blood flow, impeding it's ejection from the heart (LVOT obstruction). Often individuals with HOCM suffer from chest pain and shortness of breath due to lack of oxygen supply (ischaemia) to the heart muscle in the absence of blockages in the coronary arteries.

Despite proven advances in treatment of LVOT obstruction with the novel medication Camzyos (Mavacamten), there is a limited understanding of its effect on myocardial ischaemia.

This study, called the PEACH Trial, is designed to assess whether Camzyos also improves blood supply (perfusion) to the heart muscle in patients with HOCM. A specialised imaging technique called Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET-CT), using Rubidium-82 will be used to evaluate blood flow to the heart muscle before and after treatment. Camzyos is part of participants' regular clinical treatment and is not being supplied, administered, or influenced by the study in any way.

Participants with HOCM who are starting treatment with Camzyos as part of their clinical care will undergo a baseline PET-CT scan (if not already done), and a second scan after 12 months. The follow-up scan is done solely for research purposes. The scans will allow researchers to evaluate whether the medication improves myocardial perfusion in addition to relieving outflow obstruction.

The study is sponsored by the University of Manchester and funded by Bristol Myers Squibb. It will involve up to 75 participants recruited at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust. The findings could help improve understanding of how Camzyos works and support personalised treatment approaches in HOCM.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Written .
  2. Aged 18 and over.
  3. Confirmed diagnosis of Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy (HOCM) based on diagnostic criteria, such as unexplained left ventricular hypertrophy with a maximal wall thickness ≥15 mm in the absence of uncontrolled hypertension, valvular heart disease, or HCM phenocopies such as amyloidosis and storage disorders, and presence of either a resting or provoked peak left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) gradient ≥30 mmHg.
  4. Symptoms suggestive of myocardial ischaemia (chest pain, shortness of breath on exertion) with a clinical indication for Rb-PET.
  5. Eligible for Mavacamten treatment according to standard clinical guidelines. [see: https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ta913/chapter/1-Recommendations]. Mavacamten is part of participants' regular clinical treatment and is not being supplied, administered, or influenced by the study in any way.
  6. PET-CT performed for clinical reasons at any time in the preceding 5 years, whether reported as normal or abnormal.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (epicardial coronary stenosis >50%, assessed by either invasive coronary angiography or computed tomography angiography (CTCA). Patients will undergo the initial PET study as part of their routine clinical care. If evidence of ischaemia is identified, the standard next step would involve either CT coronary angiography or, in some cases, invasive angiography to guide further clinical management. If the angiography reveals a clear lesion responsible for the ischaemia identified on PET, the patient will not be eligible for inclusion in the study and will not be approached. Conversely, if the angiography does not identify a definitive cause for the ischaemia, it will be presumed to be of microvascular origin. In such cases, the patient becomes eligible for the study and will be approached to discuss participation and provide consent at this stage. It is important to emphasize that any angiographic procedure occurs prior to consent and as part of routine clinical care. No angiographic investigations are planned or conducted as part of the study protocol. Data from the clinical angiogram will not be included in the study, except to note a 'positive angiogram' as a reason for patient exclusion.
  2. to Mavacamten, including (LVEF) less than 55%, or allergic reaction to the drug.
  3. Contraindication to Rubidium PET-CT, including:

    • Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
    • Severe claustrophobia.
    • Morbid obesity when the patient dimensions are beyond the scanning chamber capacity.
  4. Any medical condition, which in the opinion of the Investigator, may place the patient at higher risk from his/her participation in the study, or is likely to prevent the patient from complying with the requirements of the study or completing the study.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction)

The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in Myocardial Ischaemia:

    This will be assessed using Rubidium PET-CT. Looking at change in parameters such as global myocardial blood flow reserve (GMBFR)

    Time frame: 12 months

  2. Change in Myocardial Ischaemia:

    This will be assessed using Rubidium PET-CT. Looking at change in parameters such as global myocardial stress flow (GMSF).

    Time frame: 12 months

  3. Change in Myocardial Ischaemia:

    This will be assessed using Rubidium PET-CT. Looking at change in parameters such as coronary flow capacity (CFC).

    Time frame: 12 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Patient-Reported Symptoms

    Secondary outcomes: 1\. Patient-Reported Symptoms: • Angina and Shortness of Breath: Changes in the frequency and severity of angina episodes and shortness of breath will be documented using validated the Seattle Angina Questionnaire- 7 (SAQ). Seattle Angina Questionnaire-7 (SAQ-7, 2014 version): The SAQ-7 is a validated, patient-reported outcome measure assessing the impact of angina on health status. It consists of 7 items covering 3 domains: Physical Limitation, Angina Frequency, and Quality of Life. Each domain is scored on a 0-100 scale, where higher scores indicate better health status (less angina, fewer physical limitations, and improved quality of life). Scores are transformed according to published scoring algorithms. The SAQ-7 Summary Score is the mean of the 3 domain scores. Minimum score: 0 (worst possible angina-related health status) Maximum score: 100 (no angina, no limitation, best possible quality of life)

    Time frame: 12 months

  2. Patient-Reported Symptoms

    Secondary outcomes: 1\. Patient-Reported Symptoms: * Angina and Shortness of Breath: Changes in the frequency and severity of angina episodes and shortness of breath will be documented using validated the the HCM Shortness of Breath Questionnaire (HCMSQ-SoB) (also used in the EXPLORER-HCM trial) * The HCMSQ total score is as the equally weighted sum of the three domain scores, i.e., the sum of the SoB domain score divided by four (items), the tiredness domain score (a single item), and the CV symptom domain score divided by three (items), if all three domain scores are calculated; otherwise, the HCMSQ total score is missing. The potential range of scores is 0-12.5, with lower scores indicating a lower presence of symptoms overall/better health.

    Time frame: 12 months

  3. Patient-Reported Symptoms

    Secondary outcomes: NYHA Functional Class: Improvement in NYHA functional class will be evaluated to assess changes in functional capacity and symptom severity. New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Classification - Ordinal scale ranging from Class I (no symptoms and no limitation in ordinary physical activity) to Class IV (severe limitations; symptoms present even at rest). Lower classes indicate better functional status, and improvement is reflected by a decrease in NYHA class from baseline.

    Time frame: 12 months

  4. Subgroup Analyses

    Differences in Efficacy Based on Patient Subgroups: • Subgroup Analyses: The study will investigate differences in the impact of Mavacamten on myocardial ischemia and symptoms based on: o Age years (younger vs. older patients)

    Time frame: 12 months

  5. Subgroup Analyses

    Differences in Efficacy Based on Patient Subgroups: • Subgroup Analyses: The study will investigate differences in the impact of Mavacamten on myocardial ischemia and symptoms based on: o Sex (male vs. female)

    Time frame: 12 months

  6. Subgroup Analyses

    Differences in Efficacy Based on Patient Subgroups: • Subgroup Analyses: The study will investigate differences in the impact of Mavacamten on myocardial ischemia and symptoms based on: o Genetic Status (gene-positive vs. gene-negative vs VUS)

    Time frame: 12 months

  7. Subgroup Analyses

    Differences in Efficacy Based on Patient Subgroups: • Subgroup Analyses: The study will investigate differences in the impact of Mavacamten on myocardial ischemia and symptoms based on: o Baseline LVOT Gradient Levels (mmHg) (higher vs. lower LVOT gradients)

    Time frame: 12 months

1 registry update since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Mar 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Oct 2028, 31 months after the start.

Of 47 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic, half reached primary completion within 43 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 26 and three quarters within 60. This study's planned 31 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 52 studies reached it within 52 months; a quarter within 26 and three quarters within 60.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
