Brief summary

This study is being performed to understand the effect of different doses of CK-3773274 on patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).

Detailed description

This was a Phase 2, multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, dose-finding study in participants with symptomatic HCM. The study consisted of 4 cohorts. For Cohorts 1 and 2, participants with obstructive HCM (oHCM) and not receiving disopyramide were randomized 2:1 to active or placebo treatment and received up to 3 escalating doses of aficamten (5, 10, and 15 mg once daily in Cohort 1 and 10, 20, and 30 mg once daily in Cohort 2) or placebo based on site-read echocardiographic guidance. Cohort 3 consisted of participants with oHCM whose background HCM therapy included disopyramide. All participants in Cohort 3 received up to 3 escalating doses of aficamten (5, 10, and 15 mg once daily) based on echocardiographic guidance. Cohort 4 consisted of participants with non-obstructive HCM (nHCM) on standard of care background therapy. Cohort 4 participants received up to 3 doses of aficamten (5, 10, and 15 mg once daily), titrated based on site-read echocardiographic guidance. In all 4 cohorts, treatment duration was 10 weeks with a 4-week follow-up period after the last dose.

Inclusion criteria

* Males and females between 18 and 85 years of age at screening. * Body weight is ≥45 kg at screening. * Diagnosed with HCM per the following criteria: * Has left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy with non-dilated LV chamber in the absence of other cardiac disease. * Has minimal wall thickness ≥15 mm (minimal wall thickness ≥13 mm is acceptable with a positive family history of HCM or with a known disease-causing gene mutation). * Adequate acoustic windows for echocardiography. * For Cohorts 1, 2 and 3 has LVOT-G during screening as follows: * Resting gradient ≥50 mmHg OR * Resting gradient ≥30 mmHg and \<50 mmHg with post-Valsalva LVOT-G ≥50 mmHg * For Cohort 4 has resting and post-Valsalva LVOT-G \< 30 mmHg at the time of screening * For Cohort 4 has elevated NT-proBNP \> 300 pg/mL at the time of screening * LVEF ≥60% at screening. * New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II or III at screening. * Patients on beta-blockers, verapamil, diltiazem, or ranolazine should have been on stable doses for \>4 weeks prior to randomization and anticipate remaining on the same medication regimen during the study. * For Cohort 3: Patients must be taking disopyramide. Patients should have been on stable disopyramide doses for \>4 weeks prior to screening and anticipate remaining on the same medication regimen during the study.

Exclusion criteria

* Aortic stenosis or fixed subaortic obstruction. * Known infiltrative or storage disorder causing cardiac hypertrophy that mimics oHCM (eg, Noonan syndrome, Fabry disease, amyloidosis). * History of LV systolic dysfunction (LVEF \<45%) at any time during their clinical course. * Documented history of current obstructive coronary artery disease (\>70% stenosis in one or more epicardial coronary arteries) or documented history of myocardial infarction. * Has been treated with septal reduction therapy (surgical myectomy or percutaneous alcohol septal ablation) or has plans for either treatment during the study period (Cohorts 1, 2, and 3 only). Patients having undergone septal reduction therapy \> 12 months prior to screening who remain symptomatic from nHCM, and who meet all other criteria for inclusion, may be enrolled in Cohort 4. * For Cohorts 1, 2 and 4: Has been treated with disopyramide or antiarrhythmic drugs that have negative inotropic activity within 4 weeks prior to screening. (For Cohort 3, use of disopyramide is required). * Has any ECG abnormality considered by the investigator to pose a risk to patient safety (eg, second degree atrioventricular block type II). * Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation or flutter documented during the screening period. * Paroxysmal or permanent atrial fibrillation requiring rhythm restoring treatment (eg, direct-current cardioversion, ablation procedure, or antiarrhythmic therapy) ≤6 months prior to screening. (This exclusion does not apply if atrial fibrillation has been treated with anticoagulation and adequately rate-controlled for \>6 months). * History of syncope or sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmia with exercise within 6 months prior to screening. * Has received prior treatment with CK-3773274 or mavacamten. * For Cohort 4: has any documented history of LVOT-G ≥ 30 mmHg at rest, with Valsalva, or with exercise (for subjects who have had prior septal reduction therapy, this
