PK/PD Substudy Endpoint:Change in Systolic Ejection Time (SET) Baseline systolic ejection time for all patients was 258 msec. N: number of patients in the bin, n: number of observations in the bin; Control = observations in Placebo + PK below quantification limit; PK bin concentration analysis: repeated measures analysis of covariance; Linear regression slope analysis: repeated measures multiple linear regression.
Change in Heart Rate and SBP N: number of patients in the bin, n: number of observations in the bin. Heart rate measured by ECG. Control = observations in Placebo + PK below quantification limit. PK bin concentration analysis: repeated measures analysis of covariance. Linear regression slope analysis: repeated measures multiple linear regression.
Summary • Efficacy • OM did not meet the 1° endpoint of dyspnoea relief • Appeared to improve dyspnoea in Cohort 3 • Trends towards reduction of worsening HF • Safety • Overall SAE profile and tolerability similar to placebo • Increase in troponin; no clear relationship to OM concentration • Numerical imbalance in MIs in Cohort 3 • No evidence of pro-arrhythmia • Pharmacology • PK similar to healthy volunteers and stable HF patients • Systolic ejection time significantly increased consistent with MOA • Small fall in heart rate & rise in systolic BP at higher doses
