On Friday CYTK announced the results from a first-time-in-humans clinical trial of its CK-2127107 in healthy male volunteers which were presented at the 7th International Conference of the Society on Sarcopenia, Cachexia and Wasting Disorders in Kobe, Japan.

CK-2127107 and other skeletal sarcomere activators have demonstrated pharmacological activity that may lead to new therapeutic options for diseases associated with aging and muscle wasting.
The clinical effects of muscle wasting, fatigue and loss of mobility can range from decreased quality of life to life-threatening complications.
By directly improving skeletal muscle function, a small molecule activator of the skeletal sarcomere may potentially enhance physical performance and quality of life in patients with conditions marked by muscle weakness and fatigue. <g>
