A Study of Mavacamten in Participants With HFpEF and Elevation of NT-proBNP With or Without Elevation of cTnT

Phase 2

Completed

• Conditions: Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
• Interventions: Drug: mavacamten

• Registration Number: NCT04766892
• Lead Sponsor: Bristol-Myers Squibb

Brief Summary

This is a Phase 2a proof-of-concept study to assess safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of mavacamten treatment on biomarker levels in participants with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and elevation of NT-proBNP with or without elevation of cTnT. Data from this study will inform future study designs of mavacamten in patients with HFpEF.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Ratio to Baseline at Week 26 in Resting N-Terminal Pro B-Type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) Levels	At Week 26	Ratio to baseline in N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide levels.; The baseline value is defined as the last available value before the first administration of study drug.
Ratio to Baseline at Week 26 in Resting High Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin T (Hs-cTnT) Levels Assessed by High-Sensitivity Assay	At Week 26	Ratio to Baseline in resting high sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) levels.; The baseline value is defined as the last available value before the first administration of study drug.
Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)	From the first dose of study drug through 56 days following last dose of study drug (assessed for an average of 225 days up to a max of approximately 270 days)	Treatment-emergent Adverse event (TEAE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.

Number of Participants With Laboratory Abnormalities Reported as Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)	From the first dose of study drug through 56 days following last dose of study drug (assessed for an average of 225 days up to a max of approximately 270 days)	Blood samples were collected to assess the abnormalities in laboratory parameters.
Number of Participants With Abnormal Vital Signs Reported as Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)	From the first dose of study drug through 56 days following last dose of study drug (assessed for an average of 225 days up to a max of approximately 270 days)	Treatment-emergent Adverse event (TEAE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
Number of Participants With Cardiac Rhythm Abnormalities Reported as Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)	From the first dose of study drug through 56 days following last dose of study drug (assessed for an average of 225 days up to a max of approximately 270 days)	Treatment-emergent Adverse event (TEAE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
