A lost motion assembly for a valve of an internal combustion engine includes a cam, a cam piston which is spring biased to follow motion of the cam, a valve piston operatively engaged with a poppet valve, and an auxiliary piston. The cam piston, valve piston and auxiliary piston are in continuous contact with a fluid in an enclosed control chamber having a fixed volume, such that rotation of the cam causes displacement of the cam piston into the control chamber, which causes a corresponding displacement of at least one of the valve piston and auxiliary piston while the volume of fluid in the control chamber remains substantially constant.
