Brief Summary:
The primary objectives of this study are (i) to select an oral modified release (MR) formulation and dose of omecamtiv mecarbil for chronic twice daily (BID) dosing in adults with heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction and (ii) to characterize its pharmacokinetics (PK) over 20 weeks of treatment.

Detailed Description:

Omecamtiv mecarbil (AMG 423, CK-1827452) is a novel small molecule that increases cardiac contractility by selectively and directly activating the enzymatic domain of cardiac myosin heavy chain, the force-generating motor protein of the cardiac sarcomere. This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter, phase 2 study, consisting of a dose escalation phase to select 1 of 3 omecamtiv mecarbil oral formulations in 2 dose escalation cohorts, followed by an expansion phase to evaluate 20 weeks of administration of the selected omecamtiv mecarbil formulation at 2 target dose levels, compared with placebo.

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.

  7. Dose Escalation Phase: Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events [ Time Frame: From first dose of study drug to 4 weeks after last dose; treatment duration was 7 days in the dose escalation phase. ]

    An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial participant, including worsening of a preexisting medical condition. The event does not necessarily have a causal relationship with study treatment. Laboratory value changes that required treatment or adjustment in current therapy were considered adverse events.

    Each adverse event was graded for severity according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), where Grade 1 = Mild AE, Grade 2 = Moderate AE, Grade 3 = Severe AE, and Grade 4 = life-threatening AE.

    A serious adverse event is defined as an adverse event that met at least 1 of the following serious criteria:

    • fatal
    • life threatening
    • required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization
    • resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity
    • congenital anomaly/birth defect
    • other medically important serious event

  8. Expansion Phase: Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events [ Time Frame: From first dose of study drug until 4 weeks after last dose; treatment duration was 20 weeks in the expansion phase. ]
