CYP2C19 genotyping and mavacamten: predicting outcomes in normal, intermediate and rapid metabolisers in obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Article in European journal of clinical pharmacology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeMavacamten is the first targeted therapy for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM). It is metabolised via cytochrome p450 enzymes, with variations in the CYP2C19 gene having predominant influence on plasma concentrations of mavacamten. We aimed to outline the effect of CYP2C19 metaboliser status on outcomes in patients taking mavacamten.
methodsWe retrospectively analysed clinical and echocardiographic data in patients with symptomatic oHCM taking mavacamten. CYP2C19 genotyping was undertaken by loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) on EDTA whole blood (LaCAR MDx, Liege Belgium) followed by Sanger sequencing of the coding exons of CYP2C19. Logistical regression was used to assess time taken to optimisation.
resultsFifty-five patients (59±13 years; 73% male) were included. Genotyping of CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, and CYP2C19*17 alleles was conducted. Due to low numbers in the ultrarapid (n = 1) and poor (n = 2) groups, statistical analysis was performed in intermediate, normal and rapid metabolisers. Using normal metabolisers as the reference, there was a non-significant trend towards faster optimisation in intermediate metabolisers (odds ratio 0.63 [95% CI: 0.12–3.19]) and rapid metabolisers (OR 0.55 [95% CI: 0.11–2.53]). While reductions in peak resting (40 ± 34.37 mmHg) and Valsalva (64 ± 35.23 mmHg) left ventricular outflow tract gradients were statistically significant across the cohort (p < 0.0001), there was no interaction between differing CYP2C19 groups and time (p = 0.69).
conclusionExcluding poor metabolisers, variations in the CYP2C19 gene do not explain different clinical outcomes in patients with oHCM on mavacamten. Beyond genotyping of the targeted variants, CYP2C19 sequencing did not provide any additional clinically relevant information.
