CYTK Cytokinetics
Cytokinetics is a late-stage cardiovascular biotech whose investment case now turns almost entirely around aficamten, a next-generation cardiac myosin inhibitor for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM). The clinical package in oHCM is strong: the pivotal SEQUOIA-HCM trial versus placebo and the active-control MAPLE-HCM trial versus metoprolol both met their primary endpoints with clinically meaningful gains in peak oxygen uptake (pVO₂), improved symptoms and a safety profile that appears manageable so far.
