Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: Principle question:<br>Does trimetazidine improve exercise capacity in patients with HCM? <br><br>We will test trimetazidine against placebo (dummy drug) in patients who have symptoms despite standard treatment. <br>;Secondary Objective: Secondary question:<br>Does trimetazidine improve quality of life, heart pump function and heart rhythm problems in patients with HCM?;Primary end point(s): Peak oxygen consumption (peak VO2);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 3 months treatment
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): • 6 minute walk distance<br>• Number of ventricular ectopics as determined by 24 h Holter,<br>• Minnesota Heart Failure score<br>• Echo (ejection fraction %, category of diastolic dysfunction. left atrial area, global systolic strain)<br>• Lab tests (NT pro BNP, Troponin T, Insulin/Glucose ratio)<br>• Sub maximal exercise parameters (VE/VO2 slope, VO2/work slope, VE/VCO2).<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 3 months treatment
