Abstract
Two open-label, Phase 1 studies assessed the effects of omeprazole (a weak to moderate cytochrome P450 [CYP] 2C19 inhibitor) and verapamil (a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor) on the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of mavacamten. In the omeprazole study, healthy participants received mavacamten 15 mg alone or with a 31-day course of omeprazole 20 mg once daily. In the verapamil study, healthy participants received mavacamten 25 mg alone or with a 28-day course of verapamil 240 mg once daily. In the omeprazole study, 27 of 29 randomized participants completed the study. Nine participants receiving mavacamten alone were normal metabolizers (NMs) of CYP2C19 substrates, and 6 were rapid metabolizers; 8 NMs and 6 rapid metabolizers received mavacamten + omeprazole. In both studies, mavacamten showed no safety signals and was generally well tolerated. Overall mavacamten exposure (area under the plasma concentration-time curve) increased by approximately 50% with omeprazole coadministration; maximum observed concentration (Cmax ), time to Cmax , and elimination half-life were not affected appreciably. In the verapamil study, 25 of 26 randomized participants received the study drug(s) and were included in the pharmacokinetic analyses; 24 completed the study. In the pharmacokinetic population, 12 participants received mavacamten alone (11 NMs, 1 poor metabolizer) and 13 received mavacamten + verapamil (7 NMs, 4 intermediate metabolizers, 2 poor metabolizers). Following verapamil coadministration in NMs and intermediate metabolizers, mavacamten area under the plasma concentration-time curve was minimally increased (by less than 20%), and Cmax was modestly increased (by 52%). These results suggest that mavacamten can be coadministered with weak CYP2C19 and moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors.
