Community score
Incorporated in 1997, Cytokinetics Inc. has established its headquarters in South San Francisco, California. As a biopharmaceutical company, Cytokinetics concentrates on the discovery, development, and commercialization of muscle activators and inhibitors. These therapeutic agents are tailored for the treatment of serious diseases and conditions that impact muscle performance. Unlike traditional consumer brands, Cytokinetics advances drug candidates like omecamtiv mecarbil, aimed at addressing heart failure, and reldesemtiv, focused on diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). While Cytokinetics is centered on drug development, the United States serves as its primary operational territory. Collaborations with international pharmaceutical companies for clinical trials signify an extension of their reach beyond the U.S. Nevertheless, Cytokinetics does not yet maintain a widespread international commercial presence, as the company is in the development phase with its drug candidates.
