The Efficacy of Cardiac Myosin Inhibitors Versus Placebo in Patients With Symptomatic Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy : A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review

Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

We aimed to assess the overall clinical impact of cardiac myosin inhibitors in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). We performed a meta-analysis of published trials assessing the effect of cardiac myosin inhibitors (mavacamten and aficamten) on resting and Valsalva left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) gradients and functional capacity in symptomatic HCM. The co-primary outcomes were mean percent change (mean difference [MD]) from baseline in LVOT gradient at rest and Valsalva LVOT gradient and the proportion of patients achieving New York Heart Association class improvement ≥1. The secondary outcomes included the mean percent change from baseline N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, troponin I, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). A total of 4 studies (all randomized controlled trials, including 3 mavacamten-focused and 1 aficamten-focused trials) involving 463 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Compared with placebo, the cardiac myosin inhibitor group demonstrated statistically significant differences in the baseline percent change in mean LVOT gradient at rest (MD -62.48, confidence interval [CI] -65.44 to -59.51, p <0.00001) and Valsalva LVOT gradient (MD -54.21, CI -66.05 to -42.36, p <0.00001) and the proportion of patients achieving New York Heart Association class improvement ≥1 (odds ratio 3.43, CI 1.90 to 6.20, p <0.0001). Regarding the secondary outcomes, the intervention group demonstrated statistically significant reductions in mean percent change from baseline in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (MD -69.41, CI -87.06 to -51.75, p <0.00001), troponin I (MD, -44.19, CI -50.59 to -37.78, p <0.00001), and LVEF (MD -6.31, CI -10.35, -2.27, p = 0.002). In conclusion, cardiac myosin inhibitors may confer clinical and symptomatic benefits in symptomatic HCM at the possible expense of LVEF. Further trials with large sample sizes are needed to confirm our findings.
