EMPEROR-Reduced Label Analysis

Last week, FDA approved Jardiance for the treatment of HFrEF (view updated Jardiance label here; previous FENIX insight). The approval was based on results from the EMPEROR-Reduced CVOT which was first presented at ESC 2020; previous FENIX insight). As a reminder, BI/Lilly will be presenting full results from EMPEROR-Preserved as a Hot Line session at ESC 2021 on August 27 at 11:25AM ET (view ESC session). Recall, in July 2021, BI/Lilly announced positive topline results from the Ph3 EMPEROR-Preserved trial, but it did not provide any information on the magnitude of effect (previous FENIX insight). Below, FENIX provides thoughts on the new Jardiance HFrEF indication, including a favors/disfavors analysis for the HF market.

GALACTIC-HF Results Disappoint; Omecamtiv Approval, but Utility is Questionable

Amgen, Cytokinetics, and Servier announced topline results from the Ph3 GALACTIC–HF trial, evaluating omecamtiv mecarbil in patients with HFrEF. Results demonstrated a statistically significant 8% RRR in the primary composite endpoint (CV death or HF events) but failed to show a benefit in CV death alone. Below, FENIX provides an overview of the topline data and thoughts on the results.
