    A prospective observational registry of patients with LVEF <45% and no LGE on CMR.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    All-Cause Mortality

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Number of Participants who have Sudden Cardiac Death
    Number of Participants who have a Haemodynamically significant ventricular arrhythmia event
    Quality of life assessed by Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire
    The Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire is a 23-item, self-administered instrument that quantifies physical function, symptoms (frequency, severity and recent change), social function, self-efficacy and knowledge, and quality of life. An overall summary score can be derived from the above 23 items which will be between 0-100. A higher score reflects a better health status.
    Number of Participants who have a Heart Failure related hospitalisation
    Health economic evaluation of cost
    Various different country jurisdictions will be chosen

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    CMR GUIDE DCM is a randomized controlled trial with a registry for non-randomized patients. Patients enrolled will have non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM) with mild to severe Left Ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction with replacement fibrosis identified on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR). 954 patients will be randomised from 50 sites across 4-6 countries worldwide to receive an implantable defibrillator (ICD) or implantable loop recorder (ILR). Device and clinical follow-up will be performed at 3, 6, 12, 24, 36 months and at end of study.
    Detailed Description
    The planned research will have two components: A prospective, blocked, randomized, controlled trial of primary prophylaxis ICD therapy or ILR insertion in patients with LVEF <45% and Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) on CMR and A prospective observational registry of patients with LVEF <45% and no LGE on CMR. Registry patients will not have an intervention but will have the same follow up frequency as the randomized patients. The Primary objective is to determine if routine CMR guided management strategy of implantable defibrillator (ICD) insertion reduces total mortality compared to a conservative strategy of implantable loop recorder (ILR) insertion and standard care. The secondary objectives include: To determine if routine CMR guided management strategy of ICD insertion reduces sudden cardiac death (SCD) compared to a conservative strategy of ILR insertion and standard care. To ascertain the rate of SCD in patients with DCM and LGE scar across a wide range of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Statistical analysis will be performed on an intention-to-treat basis. The main analysis of time to death from any cause will be performed using a log- rank test.
