All relevant financial relationships have been mitigated prior to this activity. 

 

The following financial relationships have been provided:

Grants/Research Support: Pfizer, Ionis, Ultomics
Consultant: Bristol Myers Squibb, Eidos
Honoraria: Alnylam, Eidos, Pfizer

 

Discussion of Off-Label, Investigational, or Experimental Drug/Device Use: The use of unlabelled drugs (aficamten and mavacamten) will be discussed. 

Staff and Reviewer Disclosures

ACHL and Radcliffe Medical Education staff members and others involved with the planning, development, and review of the content for this activity have no relevant affiliations or financial relationships to disclose.

Terms & Conditions

The content for this activity was developed independently of the commercial supporter. All materials are included with permission. The opinions expressed are those of the faculty and are not to be construed as those of the publisher or grantor.

 

This educational activity was planned and produced in accordance with the ACCME Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education. Recommendations involving clinical medicine in a continuing medical education (CME) activity must be based on evidence that is accepted within the profession of medicine as adequate justification for their indications and contraindications in the care of patients. All scientific research referred to, reported, or used in CME in support or justification of a patient care recommendation must conform to the generally accepted standards of experimental design, data collection, and analysis.

 

This CME activity might describe the off-label, investigational, or experimental use of medications that may exceed their FDA-approved labeling. Physicians should consult the current manufacturers’ prescribing information for these products. ACHL requires the speaker to disclose that a product is not labeled for the use under discussion.

Target Audience

  • Cardiologists
  • Heart Failure Specialists
  • Other Allied Healthcare Professionals

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Recall the efficacy and safety of existing HCM treatments and summarise results from ongoing trials with experimental treatments
  • Differentiate the signs and symptoms of HCM from other conditions that frequently mask, or mimic the disease and in the presence of comorbidities
