Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of a single therapeutic (50 mg) oral dose of omecamtiv mecarbil (OM) on the QT interval / QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc), relative to placebo, in healthy adults.

The QT interval is the section on an electrocardiogram (ECG) that represents the time it takes for the electrical system to fire an impulse through the ventricles and then recharge, or the time it takes for the heart muscle to contract and then recover.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study consists of 2 parts: Part A and Part B. Participants are enrolled in Part A to determine eligibility for Part B.

In Part A participants receive a single oral dose of 25 mg omecamtiv mecarbil; participants with a resulting maximum observed OM plasma concentration (Cmax) ≤ 350 ng/mL are eligible to enter Part B.

Part B is a 3-period cross-over study in which participants are randomized to receive 3 treatments in 1 of 6 sequences, each separated by a washout of at least 7 days.

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.

Participants Investigators Outcome Assessors
This was a partially double-blind study. In Part B, placebo and OM treatments were double-blinded, moxifloxacin treatment was open-label, and the core ECG laboratory was blinded to all treatment information. Except for the moxifloxacin treatment in 1 of 3 periods in Part B, treatment assignment was blinded to all participants, site personnel, the Medical Monitor, and Clinical Research Associates.

Study Groups

* Any users of tobacco- or nicotine-containing products within 6 months before Day -1 of Part A.
* History suggestive of esophageal (including esophageal spasm, esophagitis), gastric, or duodenal ulceration or bowel disease (including, but not limited to, peptic ulceration, gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, or irritable bowel syndrome); or a history of gastrointestinal surgery other than uncomplicated appendectomy.
* History or current signs or symptoms of cardiovascular disease, including but not limited to myocardial infarction, congenital heart disease, valvular heart disease, coronary revascularization, or angina.
