Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • The patient has signed an Informed Consent Form/Patient Information Sheet for this study approved by the governing Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Independent Ethics Committee (IEC)
  • ≥18 years old at the time of consent
  • Heart failure (HF) for ≥ 3 months and New York Heart Association class II or III at enrollment
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction < / = 35% by most recent echocardiogram within 3 months of enrollment. For patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) assessment for eligibility must be performed at least 3 months after device implantation
  • Treated for HF with optimal, stable pharmacological therapy. In general, optimal treatment will include a beta-blocker and an Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and/or an Angiotensin Receptor Blocker (ARB) at doses shown to be efficacious in Heart Failure (HF) trials, unless not tolerated. Stable medical therapy is defined as having no new HF drug class introduced 4 weeks prior to enrollment, although doses of all drugs may be adjusted throughout the trial
  • Considered to be an appropriate candidate for study enrollment as determined by the patient's clinical laboratory findings, vital signs and electrocardiograms (ECGs) within normal range, or if outside of the normal range not deemed clinically significant in the opinion of the Investigator
  • For female patients only: The patient is post-menopausal (≥ 1 year) or sterilized, or if she is of childbearing potential, she is not breastfeeding, her pregnancy test is negative, she has no intention to become pregnant during the course of the study and within 1 week following the last dose of omecamtiv mecarbil, and she is using highly effective methods of birth control. Postmenopausal female is defined as 12 continuous months of spontaneous amenorrhea confirmed by a serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) result > 40mIU/mL, or at least 6 weeks postsurgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy) as documented in medical history (verified with an operative note, if available)
  • For male patients only: Male patients agree for the duration of the study and 11 weeks after the last dose of omecamtiv mecarbil to use a condom during sexual intercourse with female partners who are of reproductive potential and to have female partners use an additional effective means of contraception (eg, diaphragm plus spermicide, or oral contraceptives) or the male subject must agree to abstain from sexual intercourse for the duration of the study and 11 weeks after the last dose of omecamtiv mecarbil.

  • Concomitant non-cardiovascular disease that is expected to reduce life expectancy to less than 1 year
  • Routinely scheduled outpatient intravenous (IV) infusions for HF (eg, inotropes, vasodilators [eg, nesiritide], diuretics) or routinely scheduled ultrafiltration
  • Subjects on digoxin therapy with a steady state plasma level (approximately 6 hours post-dose) that exceeds 1.0 ng/mL at screening
  • Chronic antiarrhythmic therapy, with the exception of amiodarone
  • Currently taking, or has taken within 14 days prior to enrollment, a potent Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) inhibitor
  • Currently taking, or has taken within 28 days prior to enrollment, a potent CYP3A4 inducer
  • Prior treatment with omecamtiv mecarbil
  • Currently enrolled in, or at least 60 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is greater, since ending participation in other investigational device or drug trial(s) or receiving other investigational agent
  • Systolic blood pressure > 150 mm Hg or < 80 mm Hg, or diastolic blood pressure > 95 mm Hg, assessed on two separate occasions prior to enrollment
  • Supine heart rate ≥ 100 beats per minute after 5 minutes of rest or an untreated symptomatic bradyarrhythmia within 1 month prior to enrollment
  • Troponin I at screening > upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Total bilirubin ≥ 1.5 times ULN, or an Alanine transaminase (ALT) or Aspartate transaminase (AST) ≥ 3 times ULN
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≤ 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 calculated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation
  • In the opinion of the Investigator, a condition that compromises the ability of the subject to give written informed consent or to comply with study procedures

About this study

Official title: An Open Label, Multiple Dose Study to Investigate the Pharmacokinetics of Omecamtiv Mecarbil Administered Orally to Patients With Stable Heart Failure

The purpose of this trial is to obtain a pharmacokinetic profile (i.e. amount of drug in the blood over time) of Omecamtiv mecarbil in patients with stable heart failure.

Read the detailed description

This study was conducted by Amgen as the IND holder, with Cytokinetics as a collaborator. Due to the termination of the collaboration agreement between Amgen and Cytokinetics in May 2021 and subsequent transfer of the omecamtiv mecarbil IND from Amgen to Cytokinetics, Cytokinetics is now listed as the sponsor.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Omecamtiv mecarbil in people with Heart Failure, run by Cytokinetics.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 24 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pharmacokinetic profile of oral formulations of Omecamtiv mecarbil following the morning dose on Days 7 and 8 (time frame: Following 8 Days of dosing). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jul 2021.
