Open-Label Extension and Safety Monitoring Study of Acoramidis (AG10) in Participants with Symptomatic Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy Who Completed the Phase 3 ATTRibute-CM Trial (AG10-301)
Previous studies detected that up to 15% of patients undergoing aortic valve replacement (AVR) for degenerative aortic stenosis have concomitant transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) cardiomyopathy (Castano, 2017). The aim of this study is to investigate the effectivity and practicability of a systematic ATTR-Screening in patients undergoing planned AVR. Moreover, we plan to develop a screening algorithm to detect ATTR in aortic stenosis (AS).
The study aims to test the diagnostic accuracy of native T1 mapping for the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis prospectively. The hypothesis is that native T1 mapping with a cut-off value of 1341ms (3 tesla CMR) in older patients with symptomatic heart failure, increased LV wall thickness and elevated cardiac biomarkers is non-inferior to the reference method to diagnose cardiac amyloidosis (CA). As secondary measure, a web-based ATTR probability estimator for the diagnosis of CA will be evaluated.
This study will investigate the prevalence of echocardiographic red-flags of amyloid cardiomyopathy (AC) in patients undergoing clinically-indicated echocardiography (observational phase) and the prevalence of AC among AC-suggestive echocardiograms (interventional phase).
Background: A significant portion of cardiac amyloidosis patients have a 5 to 10 years prior history of spinal canal stenosis, reflecting a diagnostic red flag that should raise suspicion for amyloidosis presence. Mild troponin release and NT-proBNP elevation, both serum cardiac biomarkers, often coincide with cardiac amyloidosis. Early cardiac amyloidosis treatment improves survival, warranting timely diagnosis. Study aim: to test a prospective screening strategy, based on serum cardiac biomarkers, to increase early detection of cardiac amyloidosis in patients with spinal canal stenosis. Design: Single-centre prospective observational non-interventional diagnostic study. Methods: Consecutive patients during a one-year period in AZ Sint-Jan Bruges, without known cardiac amyloidosis history and scheduled for spinal canal stenosis surgery, will have cardiac evaluation including serum cardiac biomarker (high-sensitive troponin T and NT-proBNP) assessment, electrocardiography and transthoracic echocardiography. During surgery, all patients will undergo ligamentum flavum biopsy to evaluate presence and burden of transthyretin amyloid deposition (Congo-red staining and immune histochemistry). All patients with suspicion for cardiac amyloidosis will undergo further diagnostic testing (including laboratory test and bone scintigraphy). A chronologic cascade screening process will be used starting with abnormal serum cardiac biomarkers (high-sensitive troponin T ≥ 14 ng/ml and/or NT-proBNP > 125 pg/ml), followed by electrocardiography, transthoracic echocardiography and finally ligamentum flavum biopsy results. The diagnostic performance of this biomarker-based strategy will be compared to electrocardiography, echocardiography and ligamentum flavum biopsy. Conclusion: It is hypothesised that serum cardiac biomarker testing in patients undergoing spinal canal stenosis surgery represents a simple and valuable prospective screening strategy for early detection of cardiac amyloid(osis).
This prospective study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ALXN2060 (also known as AG10), as well as to establish its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile in Japanese participants with symptomatic ATTR-CM administered on a background of stable heart failure therapy.
This study will be conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of NTLA-2001 in participants with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN) and participants with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTRv-CM) or wild type cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM)
AL (or light chain) amyloidosis begins in the bone marrow where abnormal proteins misfold and create free light chains that cannot be broken down. These free light chains bind together to form amyloid fibrils that build up in the extracellular space of organs, affecting the kidneys, heart, liver, spleen, nervous system and digestive tract. The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether CAEL-101, a monoclonal antibody that removes AL amyloid deposits from tissues and organs, improves overall survival and it is safe and well tolerated in patients with stage IIIa AL amyloidosis.
