Cytokinetics announced that Myqorzo is now available for prescription in 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg and 20 mg tablets in the U.S. Myqorzo was recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of adults with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy to improve functional capacity and symptoms. "With Myqorzo now available in the U.S., we are delivering on our long-standing commitment to patients living with obstructive HCM and turning the page onto a new chapter as a commercial biopharmaceutical company," said Robert I. Blum, Cytokinetics' President and Chief Executive Officer. "This product launch is the culmination of decades of rigorous science, clinical development, and commercial readiness preparations, reflecting our unwavering commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of patients. We are grateful to the healthcare professionals, patients and advocates across the HCM community whose insights and partnerships helped bring Myqorzo to this important milestone. With our REMS program now live, and our supply chain and specialty pharmacy distribution network fully operational, we are proud to make Myqorzo available as a new treatment option for patients with oHCM."

Reason
Barclays analyst Hang Hu assumed coverage of Cytokinetics with an Overweight rating and $87 price target. The firm says that given a "differentiated" label with flexibility of titration, it continues to view Myqorzo as a preferred drug over Camzyos in obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

B. Riley raised the firm's price target on Cytokinetics to $108 from $90 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Recent Myqorzo launch metrics show strong early uptake, with over 50% new patient share among roughly 700 high-volume HCPs by YE26 and formulary parity achieved despite a modest wholesale acquisition cost premium to Camzyos, positioning the product to compete on Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy differentiation rather than price, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Near-term focus is on the Phase 3 ACACIA Non-obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy readout expected in early 2Q26, which could drive a halo effect in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy share capture, supported by a higher-dose, faster titration protocol and rigorous patient selection that improve on prior peer trial outcomes, the firm says.
