About Cytokinetics
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 and/or declining. As a
leader in muscle biology and the mechanics of muscle performance,
the company is developing small molecule drug candidates
specifically engineered to impact muscle function and
contractility. Cytokinetics is collaborating with Amgen Inc.
(Amgen) to develop omecamtiv mecarbil, a novel cardiac muscle
activator. Omecamtiv mecarbil is the subject of an international
clinical trials program in patients with heart failure including
GALACTIC-HF and METEORIC-HF. Amgen holds an exclusive worldwide
license to develop and commercialize omecamtiv mecarbil with a
sublicense held by Servier for commercialization in Europe and
certain other countries. Cytokinetics is developing reldesemtiv, a
fast skeletal muscle troponin activator (FSTA) for the potential
treatment of ALS and other neuromuscular indications following
conduct of FORTITUDE-ALS and other Phase 2 clinical trials. The
company is considering potential advancement of reldesemtiv to
Phase 3. Cytokinetics is collaborating with Astellas Pharma Inc.
(Astellas) to research, develop and commercialize other novel
mechanism skeletal sarcomere activators (excluding FSTAs). Licenses
held by Amgen and Astellas are subject to specified co-development
and co-commercialization rights of Cytokinetics. Cytokinetics is
also developing CK-274, a novel cardiac myosin inhibitor that
company scientists discovered independent of its collaborations,
for the potential treatment of hypertrophic cardiomyopathies (HCM).
Cytokinetics has granted Ji Xing Pharmaceuticals Limited an
exclusive license to develop and commercialize CK-274 in China and
Taiwan, in accordance with Cytokinetics’ planned global
registration programs. Cytokinetics is conducting REDWOOD-HCM, a
Phase 2 clinical trial of CK-274 in patients with obstructive HCM.
Cytokinetics continues its over 20-year history of pioneering
innovation in muscle biology and related pharmacology focused to
diseases of muscle dysfunction and conditions of muscle
weakness.
