Three Late Breaking Science Presentations from MAPLE-HCM Provide Additional Data Including Responder Analyses, Patient Reported Outcomes, and Cardiac Biomarkers SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. , Nov. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cytokinetics, Incorporated (Nasdaq: CYTK) today announced that additional data from MAPLE-HCM ( M etoprolol vs A ficamten in P atients with L VOT Obstruction on E xercise Capacity in HCM ) were presented in three Late Breaking Science sessions at the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Medical Society Scientific Sessions and the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2025 in New Orleans, LA . Two of the presentations were simultaneously published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology . 1,2 “These additional analyses from MAPLE-HCM expand on the primary finding that aficamten is superior to metoprolol on exercise capacity, with new insights into the overall treatment effect of aficamten as well as its effect on symptoms and biomarkers in comparison to metoprolol ,” said Fady I. Malik , M.D., Ph.D., Cytokinetics’ Executive Vice President of Research & Development . “What’s notable is patients treated with aficamten achieved a significantly greater number of clinical response categories compared with metoprolol, and that nearly 40% achieved significant improvements in patient reported symptoms.” Responder Analysis Shows Significantly More Patients on Aficamten Achieved Positive or Complete Response Compared to Metoprolol Andrew Wang , M.D., Cardiologist and Professor of Medicine, Duke University School of Medicine presented a pre-specified responder analysis from MAPLE-HCM evaluating five clinically relevant measures of disease burden: complete hemodynamic response, symptom improvement, cardiac biomarker response, enhanced exercise capacity and favorable cardiac remodeling. These results were also simultaneously published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology . 1 After 24 weeks of treatment, aficamten was associated with greater improvements than metoprolol in all outcome measures (all p
