Safety, PK, and Efficacy of Omecamtiv Mecarbil in Japanese Subjects With Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction

July 25, 2021 updated by: Cytokinetics

A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of Omecamtiv Mecarbil in Japanese Subjects With Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction

  • To evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) of omecamtiv mecarbil in Japanese subjects with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction
  • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral omecamtiv mecarbil

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This study was conducted by Amgen as the IND holder, with Cytokinetics as a collaborator. Due to the termination of the collaboration agreement between Amgen and Cytokinetics in May 2021 and subsequent transfer of the omecamtiv mecarbil IND from Amgen to Cytokinetics, Cytokinetics is now listed as the sponsor.

Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline at Week 16 in Systolic Ejection Time (SET)
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 16 (Day 112)
LS mean was from the repeated measures model, which included treatment group, stratification factor (from IVRS), scheduled visit, baseline value, and the interaction of treatment group with scheduled visit as covariates.

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Time Frame: From first dose of study drug up to Week 20 (Day 140 + 3 days)
An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence. Serious AEs are defined as AEs that meets at least 1 of the following serious criteria: fatal, life threatening, requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, other medically important serious event. AEs are graded as: 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=life-threatening, 5=death. TEAEs are defined as events occurring after the first dose of study drug.
From first dose of study drug up to Week 20 (Day 140 + 3 days)
