If a change of dose in mavacamten is required after an initial is approved but before 12 weeks, can the change of dose be approved under the first continuing treatment?

Yes.

Can a patient have multiple first continuing approvals of different strengths of mavacamten until they can achieve a stable dose?

Yes. The patient’s authorities remain being approved as the first continuing until they are stable on the same dose for a period of 6 months. As such, they can have multiple first continuing approvals of different strengths until a stable dose is achieved.
