Where CYTK is headed

Cytokinetics finally crossed the line. MYQORZO (aficamten) is on the market for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, the +1125% revenue line above is the first taste of a real commercial drug rather than collaboration milestones, and the company is no longer a binary clinical-stage story. The interesting question now is not whether the drug works, it does, but how big the obHCM opportunity actually is once cardiologists have a second mechanism to reach for alongside Bristol's Camzyos, and how fast Cytokinetics can stretch the molecule into non-obstructive HCM and adjacent indications.
