Edgewise Therapeutics Announces Positive Top-Line Data from 12-Week Phase 2 CIRRUS-HCM Trial with EDG-7500 in Obstructive and Nonobstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM)June 16, 2026 7:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) – No relationship observed between EDG-7500 exposure and LVEF; no LVEF reductions below 50% – – Consistent and clinically meaningful improvements observed in echocardiogram parameters, biomarkers, symptoms and functional status across obstructive and nonobstructive HCM  –– EDG-7500 administration continued to be generally well tolerated –– Company to host webcast today at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time –BOULDER, Colo., June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Edgewise Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: EWTX), a leading muscle disease biopharmaceutical company, today announced positive top-line results from the 12-week Phase 2 Part D CIRRUS-HCM trial of EDG-7500 in obstructive (oHCM) and nonobstructive (nHCM) HCM. EDG-7500 is a novel, oral, selective cardiac sarcomere modulator designed to slow early contraction velocity and improve impaired cardiac relaxation in symptomatic HCM without compromising systolic function. To date, in over 700 echocardiograms performed in healthy adults and patients with HCM, there was no relationship observed between multiple measures of systolic function and concentration of EDG-7500. CIRRUS-HCM is a multi-part (A-D), open label trial of EDG-7500 in patients with oHCM and nHCM. Part D is a 12-week cohort designed to inform a Phase 3 trial. In oHCM, dosing was guided by left ventricular outflow tract gradient (LVOT-G), while in nHCM, dosing was guided by N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), a key biomarker of heart failure. Patients in both groups received doses ranging from 25 mg to 150 mg. A total of 53 patients (20 with oHCM and 33 with nHCM) completed Part D 12-week study.Results in Patients with oHCM
Patients with oHCM receiving EDG-7500 demonstrated broad and clinically meaningful responses across key measures of hemodynamics, biomarkers, patient-reported health status and functional status. Consistent with previous findings, significant reductions in LVOT-G were observed at rest and post Valsalva, with 90% of patients demonstrating improvement in hemodynamic measures. In a key measure of heart failure severity, 74% of patients achieved either normalization of NT-proBNP levels (defined as

Piper Sandler Maintains Overweight on Edgewise Therapeutics, Raises Price Target to $51

CANYON Phase 2 placebo-controlled trial in adults with Becker : CANYON, the largest interventional Becker trial to date, includes 40 adults and 29 adolescents with a sevasemten treatment period of 12 months. The primary endpoint of CANYON is change in creatine kinase (CK) over the treatment period with additional measures collected, including North Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA), 100-meter timed test, biomarkers of muscle damage and MRI. The Company expects to report CANYON data in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Topline data from CANYON is anticipated in 4Q24

Phase 2 trial in adults with Becker

Kiwi

From IBD ....The biotech company tested its drug, EDG-7500, in healthy volunteers and patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In this disease, a genetic mutation causes the heart ventricles to thicken. This limits cardiac function and exercise capacity.

After a single dose, patients showed improved blood flow from the left ventricle. But sometimes drugs can do their job too well, suppressing cardiac function — a measure known as reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, or LVEF. But patients didn't show meaningful reductions in LVEF.. my emphasis


Kiwi

RMB Gr8 data ...especially . Importantly, gradient reduction was achieved without a meaningful change in LVEF
So maybe no REMS limitation

I used to own CYTK and think I sold it because of this ...from the CYTK trial Core echocardiographic left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was observed to be

Thanks for all the info Kiwi. Been a long busy day so I will have to do some more DD on this one but it appears to be promising. The fact that the drug does not have the ejection fraction problem is important in my books. This could be another CYTK. My one worry is that it has had quite a sunup in 2024 already and hopefully not everything is priced in yet.

Watch for a technical breakout as market anticipates the P1 HCM data
Mavacamten is I think the drug currently approved for HCM ( heart contractibility problems ) . The problem is it lowers ejection fraction ( the pump out movement ) to low for about 20% of the patients so it has a REMS rating limiting its use.
EWTX EDG-5506 works the same way but without the ejection fraction problem

Data due this Qt ( Q3 )

The opportunity seems to be here, but I will try to exhibit something I rarely do, namely; patience.

It has risen a bunch in a short time and I hope to pick some up after a bit of a retracement.
