Toward Genetics-Driven Early Intervention in Dilated Cardiomyopathy: Design and Implementation of the DCM Precision Medicine Study [Methods in Genetics and Clinical Interpretation]

Conclusions— We anticipate that this study will demonstrate that idiopathic DCM has a genetic basis and guide best practices for a genetics-driven approach to early intervention in at-risk relatives. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT03037632.
