Background• Heart failure (HF) is a progressive disorder with a natural history punctuated by frequent
recurrent hospitalizations and ultimately death.• HF is a condition most commonly marked by cardiac systolic dysfunction.• While several interventions have been shown to reduce the rate of HF hospitalizations
and improve mortality, including angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, beta-blockers, aldosterone antagonists, coronary revascularization, and biventricular pacing,1 mortality and morbidity still remain high.
• Another target for treatment of HF is to improve myocardial contractility.2
• Omecamtiv mecarbil (OM) is a novel therapy to increase cardiac contractility. It increases stroke volume, decreases filling pressures, and improves ventricular volumes by increasing the left ventricular systolic ejection time, without increasing the rate of left ventricular pressure development or heart rate, and without noticeable effect upon myocardial oxygen uptake, blood pressure, or coronary blood flow.3-7
Study Organization
COSMIC-HF: Primary Objectives• To select an oral modified release (MR) formulation and dose of OM for chronic twice
daily (BID) dosing in subjects with HF and left ventricular systolic dysfunction• To characterize its pharmacokinetics (PK) over 20 weeks of treatment
COSMIC-HF: Secondary Objectives• To evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral OM• To measure changes in systolic ejection time (SET), stroke volume, left ventricular
end-systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), and heart rate over 20 weeks of oral dosing with OM
• To evaluate the effect over 20 weeks of oral dosing with OM on N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)
• To evaluate the PK of OM metabolites with oral OM dosing

KEY Eligibility Criteria – Inclusion• Male/female ≥ 18 and ≤ 85 years of age• History of chronic stable HF and left ventricular systolic dysfunction (defined as requiring
treatment for HF for a minimum of 4 weeks prior to screening)• Treated for HF with stable, optimal pharmacological therapy
– Optimal therapy will include a beta-blocker and an ACE inhibitor and/or an angiotensin receptor blocker at doses shown to be efficacious in HF trials, unless not tolerated.
– Stable therapy is defined as having no new HF drug class introduced or uptitrated ≤ 4 weeks prior to randomization.
• LVEF ≤ 40%• At screening, NT-proBNP ≥ 200 pg/mL (≥ 23.6 pmol/L); ≥ 1200 pg/mL (≥ 141.6 pmol/L)
if the subject has atrial fibrillation at presentation• Subjects enrolled in expansion phase must have NYHA class II or III symptoms and an
acceptable image quality of screening echocardiogram per central echo core laboratory
KEY Eligibility Criteria – Exclusion• Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) or implantable cardioverter defibrilator (ICD)
implantation within 30 days prior to enrollment• NYHA class IV• Hospitalization for any reason within 30 days prior to randomization• Likely to receive within 3 months after randomization, in the opinion of the Investigator,
planned revascularization, implantation of ICD or CRT, ventricular assist device, continuous or intermittent inotropic therapy, hospice care, or cardiac transplant
• Severe uncorrected valvular heart disease• Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, active myocarditis, or constrictive pericarditis,
or clinically significant congenital heart disease• Acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, or persistent angina at rest within 30 days
prior to randomization• Chronic antiarrhythmic therapy, with the exception of amiodarone• Routinely scheduled outpatient IV infusions for HF (eg, inotropes, vasodilators [eg,
nesiritide], diuretics) or routinely scheduled ultrafiltration• Systolic BP > 160 mmHg or < 90 mmHg, or diastolic BP > 90 mmHg, or HR > 110 beats
per minute (bpm) or HR < 50 bpm at screening• Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 at screening• Currently taking, or has taken a potent CYP3A4 inhibitor (within 14 days prior to
randomization) or potent CYP3A4 inducer (within 28 days prior to randomization)

• OM increases entry rate of myosin into force-producing state; hence increasing the number of “force generators” (myosin heads) interacting with actin.4
• OM prolongs duration of systole.• OM increases stroke volume, decreases filling pressures, and improves left ventricular
volumes.

COSMIC-HF Trial: Study Design• Multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose escalation • Dose escalation phase to select 1 of 3 OM oral formulations in 2 dose escalation cohorts,
compared with placebo BID, for 7 days each.– Cohort 1: 25 mg BID– Cohort 2: 50 mg BID– A third cohort (contingent) of 75 mg BID was determined not to be necessary based on
pharmacokinetic data from cohorts 1 and 2• Following completion of the escalation phase, an expansion phase to evaluate 20 weeks of
administration of the selected formulation at 2 target dose levels• Up to approximately 530 subjects with HF and left ventricular systolic dysfunction
– 40 subjects in each dose escalation cohort randomized 1:1:1:1 to receive 1 of 3 OM formulations (A, B, or C) or placebo
– Approximately 450 subjects in expansion phase randomized 1:1:1 to receive the selected OM formulation at 1 of 2 target dose levels or placebo
