Introduction: We have previously reported that genetically positive patients have a more profound early decrease in provocable left ventricular outflow tract gradient compared to genetically negative patients utilizing mavacamten in the first 12 weeks of therapy.
Methods And Results: In this current analysis, we found that genetically positive patients have less favorable remodeling as measured by left ventricular wall thickness regression when evaluated long-term as compared to genetically negative patients, despite an overall better early response to mavacamten. The majority of genetically positive patients were maintained on only 2.
