Mavacamten: A Review of a Novel Therapeutic Approach for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
View through CrossRef
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heart disease that can cause left ventricular
hypertrophy, arrhythmias, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death. Currently, pharmacological
treatment is limited and ineffective. Mavacamten (Camzyos<sup>TM</sup>) is a cardiac myosin inhibitor developed
as a therapeutic option to reduce myocardial contractility and restoration of myocardial
function. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the use of Mavacamten in 2022
for HCM symptoms. Clinical studies have proven that Mavacamten can reduce Left Ventricular
Outflow Tract (LVOT) involvement, cardiac hypercontraction, and hypertrophy. This review
provides an overview of HCM, its pathophysiology, current treatments, synthesis of Mavacamten,
and the clinical trials of Mavacamten.
