Efficacy and Safety of Selective Cardiac Myosin Inhibitors in the Treatment of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: a Meta-analysis [PDF]
Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disorder, characterized primarily by left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and asymmetric myocardial hypertrophy, which predisposes to sudden cardiac death and malignant arrhythmias. Although

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: Current Perspectives
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a multifaceted genetic disorder characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in the absence of alternative causes, with an estimated prevalence ranging from 1 in 200 to 1 in 500 individuals. Since HCM was first

Treatment options for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy in the era of myosin inhibitors
Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is characterised by left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) caused by septal hypertrophy and its interaction with the mitral valve and systolic anterior motion.

Aficamten is a small-molecule cardiac myosin inhibitor designed to treat hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
International audienceHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an inherited disease of the sarcomere resulting in excessive cardiac contractility. The first-in-class cardiac myosin inhibitor, mavacamten, improves symptoms in obstructive HCM.

Effect of Aficamten on Cardiac Structure and Function in Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background: Obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM) is characterized by left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, LV outflow tract obstruction, and left atrial dilation, which can be associated with progressive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and ...
