          A photo of Robert Blum speaking at the STAT Summit West on May 16, 2024
          Cytokinetics CEO Robert Blum spoke last week at a talk during STAT’s Breakthrough Summit West in San Francisco.																									Sarah Gonzalez for STAT
          Cytokinetics, a drugmaker that is expected to soon launch a promising new heart therapy called aficamten, said Wednesday that it had agreed to pay biotech firm Royalty Pharma a higher royalty on the medicine in return for up to $575 million, which will be used to fund the marketing of the drug and Cytokinetics’ ongoing research and development efforts.
          Cytokinetics shares fell nearly 10% in after-hours trading after the announcement, which investors viewed as lowering the odds that the company will be purchased by a larger pharmaceutical company.

          The firm also said that it would be raising $500 million through a stock sale.
