About Cytokinetics
Cytokinetics is a late-stage biopharmaceutical
company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing
first-in-class muscle activators and best-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 collaborating with
Astellas Pharma Inc. (Astellas) to develop reldesemtiv, a fast
skeletal muscle troponin activator (FSTA) for diseases of
neuromuscular dysfunction, including ALS. Astellas holds an
exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialize
reldesemtiv. 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. 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.
