| Popis | Aims Recent-onset dilated cardiomyopathy (RODCM) is characterized by heterogeneous aetiology and diverse clinical outcomes, with scarce data on genotype-phenotype correlates. Our aim was to correlate individual RODCM genotypes with left ventricular reverse remodelling (LVRR) and clinical outcomes. Methods and results In this prospective study, a total of 386 Czech RODCM patients with symptom duration <= 6 months underwent genetic counselling and whole-exome sequencing (WES). The presence of pathogenic (class 5) or likely pathogenic (class 4) variants in a set of 72 cardiomyopathy-related genes was correlated with the occurrence of all-cause death, heart transplantation, or implantation of a ventricular assist device (primary outcome) and/or ventricular arrhythmia event (secondary outcome). LVRR was defined as an improvement of left ventricular ejection fraction to >50% or >= 10% absolute increase, with a left ventricular end-diastolic diameter <= 33 mm/m(2) or >= 10% relative decrease. Median follow-up was 41 months. RODCM was familial in 98 (25%) individuals. Class 4-5 variants of interest (VOIs) were identified in 125 (32%) cases, with 69 (18%) having a single titin-truncating variant (TTNtv) and 56 (14%) having non-titin (non-TTN) VOIs. The presence of class 4-5 non-TTN VOIs, but not of TTNtv, heralded a lower probability of 12-month LVRR and proved to be an independent baseline predictor both of the primary and the secondary outcome. The negative result of genetic testing was a strong protective baseline variable against occurrence of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. Detection of class 4-5 VOIs in genes coding nuclear envelope proteins was another independent predictor of both study outcomes at baseline and also of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias after 12 months. Class 4-5 VOIs of genes coding cytoskeleton were associated with an increased risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias after baseline assessment. A positive family history of dilated cardiomyopathy alone only related to a lower probability of LVRR at 12 months and at the final follow-up. ConclusionsRODCM patients harbouring class 4-5 non-TTN VOIs are at higher risk of progressive heart failure and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. Genotyping may improve their early risk stratification at baseline assessment. |
