Phase 2
Terminated
Conditions
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT02291237
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of eleclazine (GS-6615) on exercise capacity as measured by Peak oxygen uptake (VO2) achieved during cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), in participants with symptomatic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Peak Oxygen Uptake (VO2) Achieved During Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET) From Baseline to Week 24Baseline to Week 24
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Minnesota Living With Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) From Baseline to Week 12Baseline to Week 12

The MLHFQ is a 21-item quality of life (QoL) questionnaire that measures the effects of symptoms, functional limitations, and psychological distress on an individual. Each item is measured on a 6-point Likert scale (0 to 5) and is scored by summing the responses to all 21 questions. Scores range from 0 to 105, with lower scores indicating a better quality of life.

Change in Treadmill Exercise Time From Baseline to Week 12Baseline to Week 12

Treadmill exercise time is the time to peak exercise.
