<p>Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an intractable X-linked myopathy caused by dystrophin gene mutations. Patients with DMD suffer from progressive muscle weakness, inevitable cardiomyopathy, increased heart rate (HR), and decreased blood pressure (BP). The aim of this study was to clarify the efficacy and tolerability of ivabradine treatment for DMD cardiomyopathy.</p><p>A retrospective analysis was performed in 11 patients with DMD, who received ivabradine treatment for more than 1 year. Clinical results were analyzed before (baseline), 6 months after, and 12 months after the ivabradine administration.</p><p>The initial ivabradine dose was 2.0 ± 1.2 mg/day and the final dose was 5.6 ± 4.0 mg/day. The baseline BP was 95/64 mmHg. A non-significant BP decrease to 90/57 mmHg was observed at 1 month but it recovered to 97/62 mmHg at 12 months after ivabradine administration. The baseline HR was 93 ± 6 bpm and it decreased to 74 ± 12 bpm at 6 months (P = 0.011), and to 77 ± 10 bpm at 12 months (P = 0.008). A linear correlation (y = 2.2x + 5.1) was also observed between the ivabradine dose (x mg/day) and HR decrease (y bpm). The baseline LVEF was 38 ± 12% and it significantly increased to 42 ± 9% at 6 months (P = 0.011) and to 41 ± 11% at 12 months (P = 0.038). Only 1 patient with the lowest BMI of 11.0 kg/m2 and BP of 79/58 mmHg discontinued ivabradine treatment at 6 months, while 1-year administration was well-tolerated in the other 10 patients.</p><p>Ivabradine decreased HR and increased LVEF without lowering BP, suggesting it can be a treatment option for DMD cardiomyopathy.</p>
