Omecamtiv mecarbil is a first in class, small molecule cardiac myosin activator in development for the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
Omecamtiv mecarbil is designed to increase the number of active actin-myosin cross bridges during each cardiac cycle and consequently augment the impaired contractility that is associated with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
The FDA has assigned the NDA a standard review with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date of November 30, 2022.
