SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Sept. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cytokinetics, Incorporated (Nasdaq: CYTK) today announced that additional data from SEQUOIA-HCM (S<\/strong>afety, E<\/strong>fficacy, and Q<\/strong>uantitative U<\/strong>nderstanding of O<\/strong>bstruction I<\/strong>mpact of A<\/em><\/strong>ficamten<\/em> in HCM<\/strong>), the pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of aficamten <\/em>in patients with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), related to cardiac remodeling and improvements in patient symptoms, cardiac structure, function and biomarkers, were presented in three Late Breaking Clinical Trial presentations and one oral presentation at the European Society of Cardiology Congress 2024 in London, UK. These presentations were accompanied by simultaneous publications in leading cardiac journals, three in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology<\/em> and one in the European Heart Journal<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we continue to dissect data from SEQUOIA-HCM, the expanding body of evidence reinforces the effects of aficamten <\/em>on clinical outcomes, symptom burden, cardiac biomarkers and cardiac structure and function,\u201d said Stephen Heitner, M.D., Vice President, Head of Clinical Research. \u201cKey data presented and published today show that treatment with aficamten<\/em> appears to improve the architecture of the heart in patients with obstructive HCM, suggesting potential for disease modification. These data reinforce the primary analyses of SEQUOIA-HCM which are central to our rolling NDA submission for aficamten<\/em> expected to be completed during this third quarter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Data from SEQUOIA-HCM CMR Sub-Study Show Treatment with <\/strong>Aficamten<\/em><\/strong> is Associated with Favorable Cardiac Remodeling <\/strong><\/p>\n

Ahmad Masri, M.D., MS, Director of the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Center at\u00a0Oregon Health & Science University presented data from the cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) sub-study in SEQUOIA-HCM. The data were simultaneously published in Journal of the American College of Cardiology<\/em>.1 <\/sup>Of the 282 patients with obstructive HCM who participated in SEQUOIA-HCM, 57 patients participated in the CMR-sub-study and 50 patients completed the study, including 21 patients who received aficamten <\/em>and 29 patients who received placebo. Baseline characteristics of patients enrolled in the CMR sub-study were comparable to the overall patient population in SEQUOIA-HCM. The primary endpoint in the CMR sub-study was the change from baseline to Week 24 in left ventricular mass index (LVMI) from baseline. Treatment with aficamten <\/em>significantly improved LVMI (-15.4 g\/m2<\/sup>, p=0.001) and resulted in favorable cardiac remodeling as demonstrated by reductions in left ventricular maximal wall thickness (p<0.001), left atrial volume index (LAVI) (p<0.001), and extracellular volume mass index (ECVi) (p=0.014), while replacement fibrosis (late gadolinium enhancement [LGE]) remained stable (Table 1). These observed structural changes are suggestive of ongoing favorable remodeling and occurred in conjunction with improvements in clinical endpoints including resting and Valsalva left ventricular outflow tract gradient (LVOT-G), NT-proBNP and NYHA Functional Class. A CMR sub-study is also being conducted in FOREST-HCM, the ongoing open-label extension clinical trial of aficamten, <\/em>to evaluate cardiac remodeling associated with long-term treatment with aficamten<\/em>, as well as in ACACIA-HCM, the pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of aficamten <\/em>in patients with non-obstructive HCM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Aficamten<\/em><\/strong> Improves Echocardiographic Measures of Cardiac Structure and Function Without Negatively Impacting Systolic Function<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sheila Hegde, M.D., M.P.H., Cardiovascular Medicine Specialist,\u00a0Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital presented data from an analysis of the impact of treatment with aficamten <\/em>on echocardiographic cardiac structure and function from SEQUOIA-HCM. The data were simultaneously published in Journal of the American College of Cardiology<\/em>.2 <\/sup>As previously reported, treatment with aficamten<\/em> significantly improved gradients by approximately 60%, improving placebo-corrected resting LVOT-G -40 mmHg (55 to 20 mmHg with aficamten<\/em>) and Valsalva LVOT-G -50 mmHg (86 to 35 mmHg with aficamten<\/em>) (Figure 1), with no significant adverse changes in left ventricular systolic function, as measured by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (-4.8%, 95% CI -6.4 to -3.3; p<0.001). Aficamten<\/em> also improved measures of left ventricular structure and function including maximal wall thickness, septal wall thickness, inferolateral wall thickness, left ventricular mass index, and left ventricular end systolic volume index, with no change in left ventricular end diastolic volume index. Aficamten <\/em>also improved LAVI as well as left ventricular relaxation and filling as indicated by an increase in lateral e\u2019 velocity and decrease in lateral E\/e\u2019, findings consistent with an improvement in diastolic function (Table 2). The improvements in these echocardiographic measures were each associated with improvements in pVO2<\/sub>, Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Clinical Summary Score (KCCQ-CSS) and NT-proBNP, demonstrating that the effects of aficamten <\/em>on cardiac function and structure were associated with improvements in exercise capacity, symptoms and quality of life.<\/p>\n

Aficamten<\/em><\/strong> Improves Symptom Burden and Quality of Life in Patients with Obstructive HCM<\/strong><\/p>\n

John A. Spertus, M.D., M.P.H., Professor, Daniel J. Lauer Missouri Endowed Chair in\u00a0Metabolic and Vascular Disease Research, Clinical Director,\u00a0University of Missouri Kansas City Healthcare Institute\u00a0for Innovations in Quality and Saint Luke\u2019s\u00a0Mid America Heart Institute presented results from an analysis of the effect of treatment with aficamten <\/em>on patient symptom burden, including the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Overall Summary Score (KCCQ-OSS) and the Seattle Angina Questionnaire Summary Score (SAQ-SS) from SEQUOIA-HCM. The data were simultaneously published in Journal of the American College of Cardiology<\/em>.3 <\/sup>At 24 weeks, aficamten <\/em>significantly improved KCCQ-OSS by 7.9 points (95% CI 4.8 to 11; p<0.001). Very large improvements in KCCQ-OSS (\u226520 points) were achieved by 30% of patients treated with aficamten<\/em> compared to 12% of patients treated with placebo (number needed to treat (NNT) = 5.8). Similarly, aficamten <\/em>significantly improved SAQ-SS scores by 7.8 points (95% CI 4.7 to 11; p<0.001), with 31% of patients treated with aficamten <\/em>experiencing a very large improvement (\u226520 points) compared to 14% of patients on placebo (NNT = 5.8) (Figure 2). No significant heterogeneity was observed in improvements in KCCQ-OSS and SAQ-SS according to patient baseline characteristics, including the severity of disease or level of symptom burden. Even in patients with minimal angina at baseline, SAQ-SS scores improved after 24 weeks of treatment with aficamten<\/em>. These results indicate that treatment with aficamten <\/em>significantly improves patient health status including symptoms, function and quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Aficamten<\/em><\/strong> Improves Cardiac Biomarkers Including NT-proBNP and hs-cTnI <\/strong><\/p>\n

Caroline Coats, M.D., Ph.D., Lead Clinician, West of Scotland Inherited Cardiac Conditions Service, Honorary Senior Lecturer,\u00a0School of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Health,\u00a0University of Glasgow presented results from a pre-specified secondary analysis from SEQUOIA-HCM related to NT-proBNP and high sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTnI), cardiac biomarkers indicative of cardiac wall stress and myocardial injury. The results were simultaneously published in the European Heart Journal.<\/em>4<\/em><\/sup> Higher baseline concentrations of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnI were associated with worse baseline echocardiographic measures of disease severity including resting and Valsalva LVOT-G, LVEF and left ventricular wall thickness. Treatment with aficamten <\/em>for 24 weeks resulted in an 80% reduction in NT-proBNP (p<0.001) and a 43% reduction (p<0.001) in hs-cTnI (Figure 3). Both measurements returned to baseline after washout. Baseline measurements of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnI were not correlated with change in pVO2<\/sub> such that treatment with aficamten<\/em> significantly improved pVO2<\/sub> irrespective of baseline biomarkers. Baseline NT-proBNP and hs-cTnI also did not predict future instances of LVEF <50%. However, at 24 weeks, improvements in NT-proBNP and hs-cTnI were strongly associated with improvements in LVOT-G, pVO2<\/sub> and KCCQ. Improvements in NT-proBNP were shown to closely mirror improvements in pVO2<\/sub>, which was not directly related to the reduction in LVOT-G, indicating that NT-proBNP may serve as an independent surrogate for change in pVO2<\/sub>. Additionally, changes in NT-proBNP as early as Week 2 were strongly associated with changes in Valsalva LVOT-G, KCCQ-CSS, LAVI and lateral E\/e\u2019 at Week 24, indicating that early improvements in NT-proBNP may be a signal of future treatment effect. These results indicate that NT-proBNP may be a potentially useful tool to monitor functional and symptomatic improvements in response to treatment with aficamten. <\/em><\/p>\n

About <\/strong>Aficamten<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Aficamten<\/em> is an investigational selective, small molecule cardiac myosin inhibitor discovered following an extensive chemical optimization program that was conducted with careful attention to therapeutic index and pharmacokinetic properties and as may translate into next-in-class potential in clinical development. Aficamten<\/em> was designed to reduce the number of active actin-myosin cross bridges during each cardiac cycle and consequently suppress the myocardial hypercontractility that is associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). In preclinical models, aficamten<\/em> reduced myocardial contractility by binding directly to cardiac myosin at a distinct and selective allosteric binding site, thereby preventing myosin from entering a force producing state.<\/p>\n

The development program for aficamten<\/em> is assessing its potential as a treatment that improves exercise capacity and relieves symptoms in patients with HCM as well as its potential long-term effects on cardiac structure and function. Aficamten<\/em> was evaluated in SEQUOIA-HCM (S<\/strong>afety, E<\/strong>fficacy, and Q<\/strong>uantitative U<\/strong>nderstanding of O<\/strong>bstruction I<\/strong>mpact of A<\/strong>ficamten in HCM<\/strong>), a positive pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial in patients with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Aficamten<\/em> received Breakthrough Therapy Designation for the treatment of symptomatic obstructive HCM from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) as well as the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in China. Cytokinetics expects to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) to the FDA in Q3 2024 and a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in Q4 2024.<\/p>\n

Aficamten<\/em>\u00a0is also currently being evaluated in MAPLE-HCM, a Phase 3 clinical trial of\u00a0aficamten<\/em>\u00a0as monotherapy compared to metoprolol as monotherapy in patients with obstructive HCM, ACACIA-HCM, a Phase 3 clinical trial of\u00a0aficamten<\/em>\u00a0in patients with non-obstructive HCM, and CEDAR-HCM, a clinical trial of\u00a0aficamten\u00a0<\/em>in a pediatric population with obstructive HCM, and FOREST-HCM, an open-label extension clinical study of\u00a0aficamten\u00a0<\/em>in patients with HCM.<\/p>\n

About Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease in which the heart muscle (myocardium) becomes abnormally thick (hypertrophied). The thickening of cardiac muscle leads to the inside of the left ventricle becoming smaller and stiffer, and thus the ventricle becomes less able to relax and fill with blood. This ultimately limits the heart\u2019s pumping function, resulting in reduced exercise capacity and symptoms including chest pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or fainting during physical activity. HCM is the most common monogenic inherited cardiovascular disorder, with approximately 280,000 patients diagnosed, however, there are an estimated 400,000-800,000 additional patients who remain undiagnosed in the U.S.5<\/sup>,<\/sup>6<\/sup>,<\/sup>7<\/sup> Two-thirds of patients with HCM have obstructive HCM (oHCM), where the thickening of the cardiac muscle leads to left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction, while one-third have non-obstructive HCM (nHCM), where blood flow isn\u2019t impacted, but the heart muscle is still thickened. People with HCM are at high risk of also developing cardiovascular complications including atrial fibrillation, stroke and mitral valve disease.8<\/sup> People with HCM are at risk for potentially fatal ventricular arrhythmias and it is one of the leading causes of sudden cardiac death in younger people or athletes.9<\/sup> A subset of patients with HCM are at high risk of progressive disease leading to dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure necessitating cardiac transplantation.<\/p>\n
