Impact of Aficamten on Echocardiographic Cardiac Structure and Function in Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background: Aficamten, a next-in-class cardiac myosin inhibitor, improved peak oxygen uptake (pVO2) and lowered resting and Valsalva left ventricular outflow (LVOT) gradients in adults with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM) in ...

Abstract Complex diseases are caused by a combination of genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors and comprise common noncommunicable diseases, including allergies, cardiovascular disease, and psychiatric and metabolic disorders. More than 25% of Europeans suffer from a complex disease, and together these diseases account for 70% of all deaths ...

Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a genetically and clinically heterogeneous cardiomyopathy, is commonly caused by mutations in the MYBPC3 gene or other various sarcomeric genes. HCM patients carrying sarcomeric gene mutations may experience an asymptomatic period at early stage but still possess an escalating risk of developing adverse ...

Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most prevalent cardiac disease in cats and lacks efficacious preclinical pharmacologic intervention, prompting investigation of novel therapies. Genetic mutations encoding sarcomeric proteins are implicated in the development of HCM and small molecule myosin inhibitors are an emerging class of ...

Effect of Hepatic Impairment or Renal Impairment on the Pharmacokinetics of Aficamten. [PDF]
Aficamten, a small-molecule, selective cardiac myosin inhibitor, is under development for the treatment of symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM). Aficamten is primarily eliminated by hepatic metabolism with renal excretion playing a minor role.

Aficamten for Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
One of the major determinants of exercise intolerance and limiting symptoms among patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an elevated intracardiac pressure resulting from left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Aficamten is an oral selective cardiac myosin inhibitor that reduces left ventricular outflow tract gradients by ...

Is mavacamten superior to aficamten for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy? A frequentist network meta-analysis [PDF]
Background: Myosin inhibitors have been shown to improve exercise capacity and symptoms, as well as reduce the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) gradient. This study explores the efficacy of mavacamten versus aficamten in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (
