Description

Summary

This clinical trial will study the effects of aficamten (versus placebo) on the quality of life, exercise capacity, and clinical outcomes of patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Official Title

A Phase 3, Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Aficamten Compared to Placebo in Adults With Symptomatic Non-Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Keywords

Symptomatic Non-Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, CK-3773274, CK-274, Aficamten, nHCM, ACACIA-HCM, ACACIA, Cardiomyopathies, Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophy

Eligibility

You can join if…

Open to people ages 18-85

  • Between 18-85 years of age
  • Body mass index < 40 kg/m2
  • Diagnosed with nHCM and has a screening echocardiogram with the following:
    • End-diastolic left ventricular (LV) wall thickness:
      • ≥ 15 mm in one or more myocardial segments OR
      • ≥ 13 mm in one or more wall segments and a known disease-causing gene mutation or positive family history of HCM AND
      • Resting LVOT-G < 30 mmHg AND Valsalva LVOT-G < 50 mmHg AND
      • LVEF ≥ 60%
    • Participants with a history of intracavitary obstruction are eligible.
  • NYHA class II or III
  • Respiratory exchange ratio of ≥ 1.00 at screening by cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) and predicted peak oxygen uptake (pVO2) ≤ 90% for age and sex
  • KCCQ-CSS score of ≥ 30 and ≤ 85
  • NT-proBNP of:
    • NT-pro BNP ≥ 300 pg/mL or NT-proBNP ≥ 900 pg/mL if in atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter OR
    • For Black participants, an NT-pro BNP ≥ 225 pg/mL or NT-proBNP ≥ 675 pg/mL if in atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter

You CAN'T join if...

  • Significant valvular heart disease (per Investigator judgment)
    • Moderate or severe valvular aortic stenosis or fixed subaortic obstruction
    • Moderate or severe mitral regurgitation
  • Known or suspected infiltrative, genetic or storage disorder causing cardiac hypertrophy that mimics nHCM (eg, Noonan syndrome, Fabry disease, amyloidosis)
  • Known current unrevascularized coronary artery stenosis of ≥ 70% or documented history of myocardial infarction.
  • History of LV systolic dysfunction (LVEF < 45%) or stress cardiomyopathy
  • Inability to exercise on a treadmill or bicycle (eg, orthopedic limitations)
  • Documented room air oxygen saturation reading < 90% at screening or history of significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or severe/significant pulmonary hypertension
  • History of syncope, symptomatic ventricular arrhythmia, or sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmia with exercise within 3 months prior to screening
  • History of resistant hypertension (persistently elevated blood pressure despite maximal doses of 3 or more classes of medications for hypertension control)
  • Screening diastolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mmHg
  • Received prior treatment with aficamten
  • Received treatment with mavacamten within 3 months prior to screening (must be discussed with the medical monitor prior to screening)
  • Undergone septal reduction therapy < 6 months prior to screening
  • Is being considered for or is likely to be considered for heart transplant listing or left ventricular assist device placement during the study period
  • Paroxysmal or permanent atrial fibrillation is excluded only if:
    • rhythm restoring treatment (e.g., direct-current cardioversion, atrial fibrillation ablation procedure, or antiarrhythmic therapy) has been required ≤ 3 months prior to screening
    • rate control and anticoagulation have not been achieved for at least 3 months prior to screening.
