The KCCQ is a validated patient reported outcomes tool<sup>1<\/sup> used to evaluate heart failure symptoms and their impact on social and physical limitations as well as quality of life. Higher scores indicate better health status. As early as Week 12, patients experienced substantial and significant symptom improvements as measured by the change in their KCCQ scores. The KCCQ Overall Summary Score (KCCQ-OSS) and all KCCQ sub-domain scores demonstrated these improvements, improvements which were also noted to be sustained through Week 24. At 12 and 24 weeks, the change from baseline (mean [SD]) change in KCCQ-OSS was 16.5 [16.7] (p&lt;0.0001) and 17.6 [24.7] (p=0.0015). The proportion of patients with clinically important improvements (improvement \u22655 points on the KCCQ-OSS) was 72.7% at Week 12 and 72.0% at Week 24, and 36.4% of patients at Week 12 and 40.0% at Week 24 reported a very large clinical improvement (\u226520 points).

Malik, M.D., Ph.D., Cytokinetics\u2019 Executive Vice President of Research &amp; Development. \u201cAs REDWOOD-HCM OLE continues, <em>aficamten <\/em>is also under study in SEQUOIA-HCM, the Phase 3 registrational clinical trial in patients with obstructive HCM.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Literature Synthesis Finds Patients with Worsening Heart Failure and LVEF \u226430% have Disproportionately High Risk of Heart Failure Hospitalization<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">In patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), previous work has identified that worsening heart failure (WHF) and lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) are risk factors for cardiovascular (CV) death and HF hospitalization. However, gaps remain in understanding the relative impact of these factors. A new analysis conducted in partnership with Yale University School of Medicine examined heart failure prevalence and rates of hospitalization. Reported statistics and U.S. 2020 Census data were used to estimate the prevalence of three groups of patients, including those with heart failure, those with HFrEF, and a third higher-risk subgroup of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction with LVEF \u226430%. Among these groups, patients were defined as having worsening heart failure if they had a heart failure event within the prior 6-12 months. Approximately 882 per 100,000 patients in the U.S. were estimated to have HFrEF including 634 per 100,000 with LVEF \u226430%. Within the HFrEF subgroup, 168 per 100,000 patients had worsening heart failure, including 126 per 100,000 with LVEF \u226430% and worsening heart failure and (7% of all patients with heart failure). Rates of heart failure hospitalizations were then estimated using reported event rates. Among the 343 heart failure hospitalizations per 100,000, 263 (76.7%) were for patients with worsening heart failure, suggesting that patients with worsening heart failure have a disproportionately high risk of HF hospitalization. Furthermore, the higher-risk subgroup with both worsening heart failure and LVEF \u226430% comprised 7% of patients with heart failure, but accounted for 36% of all heart failure hospitalizations (p&lt;0.0001), an excess risk of 516% relative to the average patient with heart failure. This suggests that there remains significant unmet medical need among people with worsening heart failure.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About <\/strong><br \/>\n        <strong><br \/>\n          <em>Aficamten<\/em><br \/>\n        <\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <em>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. <em>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, <em>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. The development program for <em>aficamten<\/em> is assessing its potential as a treatment that improves exercise capacity and relieves symptoms in patients with HCM as well as its long-term effects on cardiac structure and function. <em>Aficamten<\/em> received Breakthrough Therapy Designation for the treatment of symptomatic obstructive HCM from the U.S. Food &amp; Drug Administration (FDA).<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">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 symptoms including chest pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or fainting during physical activity. A subset of patients with HCM are at high risk of progressive disease which can lead to atrial fibrillation, stroke and death due to arrhythmias. There are no FDA approved medical treatments that directly address the hypercontractility that underlies HCM.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About Heart Failure<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Heart failure is a grievous condition that affects more than 64 million people worldwide<sup>2<\/sup>\u00a0about half of whom have reduced left ventricular function.<sup>3,4<\/sup>\u00a0It is the leading cause of hospitalization and readmission in people age 65 and older.<sup>5,6<\/sup>\u00a0Despite broad use of standard treatments and advances in care, the prognosis for patients with heart failure is poor.<sup>7<\/sup>\u00a0An estimated one in five people over the age of 40 are at risk of developing heart failure, and approximately 50 percent of people diagnosed with heart failure will die within five years of initial hospitalization.<sup>8,9<\/sup>\u00a0More than 2 million people in the\u00a0U.S.\u00a0are estimated to have an ejection fraction &lt;30%, indicating they may have severe heart failure.<sup>10<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Cytokinetics<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Cytokinetics is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing first-in-class muscle activators and next-in-class muscle inhibitors as potential treatments for debilitating diseases in which muscle performance is compromised.
