About Cytokinetics
Cytokinetics is a late-stage
biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and
commercializing first-in-class muscle activators as potential
treatments for debilitating diseases in which muscle performance is
compromised and/or declining. As a leader in muscle biology and the
mechanics of muscle performance, the company is developing small
molecule drug candidates specifically engineered to increase muscle
function and contractility. Cytokinetics’ lead drug candidate
is tirasemtiv, a fast skeletal muscle troponin activator, for
the potential treatment of ALS. Tirasemtiv has been
granted orphan drug designation and fast track status by
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and orphan
medicinal product designation by the European Medicines
Agency for the potential treatment of
ALS. Cytokinetics retains the right to develop and
commercialize tirasemtiv, subject to an option held
by Astellas Pharma Inc. Cytokinetics is also
collaborating with Astellas to develop CK-2127107, a fast skeletal
muscle activator, for the potential treatment of spinal muscular
atrophy, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and
ALS. Cytokinetics is collaborating with Amgen
Inc. to develop omecamtiv mecarbil, a novel cardiac
muscle activator, for the potential treatment of heart
failure. Amgen holds an exclusive license worldwide to
develop and commercialize omecamtiv mecarbil and Astellas
