Primary Outcome(s)
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: This end-point will be evaluated after 6 months of treatment

Secondary Objective: ii. Does Trientine lead to reduction in left ventricular (LV) i.e. heart muscle mass in patients with HCM?
iii. Does Trientine lead to an improvement in myocardial fibrosis (heart muscle scarring) in HCM?
iv. Does Trientine lead to improved exercise capacity in patients with HCM?
Main Objective: i. Does Trientine lead to an improvement in high-energy phosphate metabolism (myocardial energetics, i.e. energy processing) in patients with HCM?
Primary end point(s): To evaluate the change in myocardial energetics, as measured using cardiac MRI, in patients with HCM after treatment with Trientine.
Secondary Outcome(s)

Secondary end point(s): ii. Does Trientine lead to reduction in left ventricular (LV) mass in patients with HCM?
iii. Does Trientine lead to an improvement in myocardial fibrosis in HCM?
iv. Does Trientine lead to improved exercise capacity in patients with HCM?
