Genes Associated With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: A Reappraisal by the ClinGen Hereditary Cardiovascular Disease Gene Curation Expert Panel.

Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an inherited cardiac condition affecting ∼1 in 500 and exhibits marked genetic heterogeneity. Previously published in 2019, 57 HCM-associated genes were curated providing the first systematic evaluation of gene-disease validity.

Objectives: The authors report work by the Clinical Genome Resource Hereditary Cardiovascular Disease (HCVD) Gene Curation Expert Panel (GCEP) to reappraise the clinical validity of previously curated and new putative HCM genes.
