Background therapy1
Majority of patients received conventional background HCM treatment:
- 96% of CAMZYOS patients (beta blockers 76%, calcium channel blockers 20%)
- 87% of placebo patients (beta blockers 74%, calcium channel blockers 13%)
- Exclusion: disopyramide or ranolazine
HCM=hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; LVEF=left ventricular ejection fraction; LVOT=left ventricular outflow tract; NYHA=New York Heart Association; oHCM=obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Trial Endpoints
Primary composite endpoint: Exercise capacity and symptoms1
Composite of change at Week 30 from baseline in exercise capacity (measured by pVO2) and symptoms (measured by NYHA Class)
Patients with change from baseline in pVO2 ≥1.5 mL/kg/min
AND
Improvement in NYHA Class ≥1 at Week 30
Patients with change from baseline in pVO2 ≥3.0 mL/kg/min
AND
No worsening in NYHA Class at Week 30
Patients with change from baseline in pVO2 ≥3.0 mL/kg/min
AND
Improvement in NYHA Class ≥1 at Week 30
Secondary endpoints: LVOT peak gradient, functional capacity and health status1
Observed:
- Change from baseline to Week 30 in:
- Post-exercise LVOT peak gradient
- pVO2
- Proportion of patients with improvement of ≥1 NYHA Class at Week 30
Patient-reported:
- Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-23 Clinical Summary Score (KCCQ-23 CSS)
- Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Symptom Questionnaire Shortness-of-Breath subscore (HCMSQ SoB)
LVOT=left ventricular outflow tract; NYHA=New York Heart Association; oHCM=obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; pVO2=peak oxygen consumption
PRIMARY COMPOSITE ENDPOINT
With CAMZYOS: Statistically significant improvement shown in symptoms and exercise capacity vs. placebo in patients with symptomatic oHCM1
CAMZYOS met the primary composite endpoint measured by change in symptoms (NYHA Class) and exercise capacity (pVO2) from baseline to Week 30.1
Adapted from the Product Monograph.
NYHA=New York Heart Association; oHCM=obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; pVO2=peak oxygen consumption
Patients achieving the primary endpoint at Week 30.1
Adapted from the Product Monograph.
NYHA=New York Heart Association; pVO2=peak oxygen consumption
Adapted from the Product Monograph.
Peak VO2: Greater mean increase in pVO2 shown with CAMZYOS vs. placebo1
Adapted from the Product Monograph.
LVOT=left ventricular outflow tract; pVO2=peak oxygen consumption
SECONDARY ENDPOINTS
NYHA Class: Statistically significantly more patients had improvement of ≥1 NYHA Class with CAMZYOS vs. placebo1
Adapted from the Product Monograph.
NYHA Class I achieved at Week 30:
With CAMZYOS, 50% of patients (61/123) achieved
NYHA Class I vs. 21% (27/128) placebo1
NYHA=New York Heart Association
NYHA Class: Status achieved at Week 301
50% of all patients on CAMZYOS reached NYHA
Class I, regardless of class at baseline vs. 21% placebo
(61/123 vs. 27/128)
NYHA=New York Heart Association
SECONDARY ENDPOINTS: PATIENT-REPORTED
KCCQ-23 CSS*: Statistically significantly greater improvement shown in patient-reported combined physical limitations and total symptom burden scores with CAMZYOS vs. placebo1
Adapted from the Product Monograph.
Adapted from the Product Monograph.
KCCQ-23 CSS=Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-23 Clinical Summary Score; LS=least squares; oHCM=obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; SE=standard error
* The KCCQ-23 CSS is a validated patient-reported outcome in oHCM and is composed of the physical limitations and the total symptom burden scores of the KCCQ-23. The Clinical Summary Score (CSS) ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores representing better health status.
HCMSQ SoB*: Statistically significantly greater improvement shown in patient-reported frequency and severity of shortness of breath with CAMZYOS vs. placebo1
Adapted from the Product Monograph.
Adapted from the Product Monograph.
HCMSQ SoB=Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Symptom Questionnaire Shortness of Breath subscore; LS=least squares; oHCM=obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; SE=standard error
* The HCMSQ SoB domain score is a validated patient-reported outcome in oHCM and measures frequency and severity of shortness of breath. The HCMSQ Shortness of Breath (SoB) domain score ranges from 0 to 18, with lower scores representing less shortness of breath.
