MYQORZO (aficamten)
Cardiac myosin modulators constitute a class of targeted small-molecule agents that directly interact with cardiac sarcomeric beta-myosin to regulate myocardial contractility without altering intracellular calcium handling.
Within this class, cardiac myosin inhibitors decrease the formation of actin-myosin cross-bridges to relieve pathological hypercontractility, reducing left ventricular outflow tract gradients in conditions such as obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Conversely, cardiac myosin activators promote cross-bridge recruitment to prolong systolic ejection and enhance contractile efficiency, an approach developed primarily to improve cardiac performance in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
Together, these agents provide mechanism-targeted pharmacotherapy across the spectrum of myocardial contractile disorders.
