    Question

    Cytokinetics Presents Aficamten HCM Data at ESC Congress 2026

    Direct answer

    Cytokinetics released late-breaking clinical results at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2026 evaluating its cardiac myosin inhibitor aficamten (MYQORZO). Data from the ACACIA-HCM trial verified significant structural and diastolic cardiac improvements in patients suffering from non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Supplementary data from MAPLE-HCM reinforced competitive differentiation against existing therapies, solidifying aficamten's profile ahead of global commercial regulatory filings.
