Abstrakt:	Background: Obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM) is characterized by left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, LV outflow tract obstruction, and left atrial dilation, which can be associated with progressive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and stroke. Aficamten is a next-in-class cardiac myosin inhibitor that reduces outflow tract obstruction by modulating cardiac contractility, with the potential to reverse pathological remodeling and, in turn, reduce cardiovascular events. Objectives: This study sought to investigate the effect of aficamten on cardiac remodeling compared with placebo using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and its association with key clinical endpoints in the SEQUOIA-HCM (Safety, Efficacy, and Quantitative Understanding of Obstruction Impact of Aficamten in HCM) CMR substudy. Methods: SEQUOIA-HCM was a phase 3 double-blind, placebo-controlled trial for adults with symptomatic oHCM who were randomized 1:1 to 24 weeks of aficamten (dose range: 5-20 mg) or placebo. Eligible participants were offered enrollment in the CMR substudy with studies performed at baseline and week 24. Image analysis was performed in a blinded fashion by a core laboratory. Results: Of the 282 randomized patients, 57 (20%) participated in the substudy, and of those, 50 (88%) completed both baseline and week 24 CMR. Baseline characteristics of the CMR cohort were similar to the overall study population. Of these 50 patients, 21 received aficamten and 29 received placebo. Relative to placebo, patients receiving aficamten demonstrated significant reductions (Δ least-squares mean) in LV mass index (-15 g/m 2 ; 95% CI: -25 to -6 g/m 2 ; P = 0.001), maximal LV wall thickness (-2.1 mm; 95% CI: -3.1 to -1.1 mm; P < 0.001), left atrial volume index (-13 mL/m 2 ; 95% CI: -19 to -7 mL/m 2 ; P < 0.001), native T1 relaxation time (-37 ms; 95% CI: -69 to -5 ms; P = 0.026), indexed extracellular volume fraction (-3.9 g/m 2 ; 95% CI: -7.0 to -0.9 g/m 2 ; P = 0.014), and indexed myocyte mass (-14 g/m 2 ; 95% CI: -23 to -4 g/m 2 ; P = 0.004), while there were no significant changes in LV chamber volumes, LV replacement fibrosis (late gadolinium enhancement mass -0.7 g; 95% CI: -2.9 to 1.6 g; P = 0.54), or extracellular volume (0.7%; 95% CI: -2.2% to 3.6%; P = 0.61). Conclusions: The CMR substudy of SEQUOIA-HCM demonstrated that treatment with aficamten relative to placebo for 24 weeks resulted in favorable cardiac remodeling. These changes, particularly with regard to LV mass, wall thickness, and left atrial size, could potentially lead to reduced cardiovascular events including heart failure and atrial fibrillation with longer follow-up.
