Cytokinetics To Report New Data At Heart Failure Society Of America Meeting Sept. 30-Oct. 6

Cytokinetics, Incorporated (NASDAQ:CYTK) today announced that new data will be presented at the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) Virtual Annual Scientific Meeting 2020 taking place online from September 30, 2020 -- October 6, 2020.

The new data include analyses characterizing real-world patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) representative of patients in GALACTIC-HF (Global Approach to Lowering Adverse Cardiac Outcomes Through Improving Contractility in Heart Failure), the Phase 3 event driven cardiovascular outcomes clinical trial of omecamtiv mecarbil. Additional results from COSMIC-HF (Chronic Oral Study of Myosin Activation to Increase Contractility in Heart Failure), the completed Phase 2 clinical trial which evaluated omecamtiv mecarbil in patients with HFrEF, will also be presented.
