    Cytokinetics Presents Aficamten Cardiac Trial Data at ESC 2026

    Question

    Cytokinetics Presents Aficamten Cardiac Trial Data at ESC 2026

    Direct answer

    Cytokinetics unveiled additional clinical trial findings for aficamten (MYQORZO) during a late-breaking clinical session at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2026. Data from the ACACIA-HCM study in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy showed statistically meaningful improvements in diastolic function and cardiac structural markers alongside functional capacity gains. Additionally, results from the MAPLE-HCM analysis reinforced the therapeutic profile of aficamten. The combined presentations provide clinical support for Cytokinetics as it advances regulatory filings and prepares for potential commercialization in expanded cardiomyopathy indications.
