To change the world for people with serious cardiovascular diseases through bold and innovative science, we’re pioneering a precision medicine approach to treating cardiomyopathies and other forms of heart failure that results from biomechanical defects in cardiac muscle contraction.

Our Programs

Mavacamten

Obstructive HCM

Phase 3

Non-obstructive HCM

Phase 2

Mavacamten

Mavacamten is designed to address the excessive contractility, left ventricular hypertrophy and reduced compliance characteristic of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).

MYK-491

Precision Systolic Disease Indications

Phase 2

MYK-491

MYK-491 is designed to increase contractility without impairing diastolic filling in patients with systolic heart failure.

MYK-224

HCM

Phase 1

MYK-224

MYK-224 is our second program targeting hypercontractility and impaired relaxation.

ACT-1

Precision Systolic Disease Indications

Preclinical

ACT-1

ACT-1 is our preclinical activator program directed toward increasing cardiac contractility in targeted dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).

LUS-1

Precision Diastolic Disease Indications

Preclinical

LUS-1

LUS-1 is an emerging preclinical program targeting a muscle abnormality that results in impaired relaxation of the left ventricle.
