Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: Establish if trimetazidine reverses reduced myocardial efficiency in asymptomatic HCM mutation carriers;Secondary Objective: As impaired relaxation of the heart (i.e. diastolic dysfunction) is present in asymptomatic HCM mutation carriers, in addition to cardiac efficiency, we will study effects of trimetazidine on diastolic cardiac function;Primary end point(s): Second 11C acetate PET/CT-scan and MRI scan ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 2 months after the start of treatment with trimetazidine
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): not applicable;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: not applicable
