Filter by:The goal of this study is to develop an algorithm using artificial intelligence (AI) to assist identification of potential ATTR-CM cases using routine transthoracic echocardiography. The main questions it aims to answer are: - is the algorithm able to diagnose ATTR-CM - is the algorithm able to diagnose different types of ATTR-CM (ATTRv, ATTRwt) This is a non interventional study. Participant' echocardiographies will be, after deidentification, used to train, valid and test the algorithm.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of the inotropic drug named dobutamine, in patients with wild-type Transthyretin Amyoid Cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt). The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the effects of increasing dosages of dobutamine infusion on cardiac output and filling pressures in patients with symptomatic ATTRwt. - Safety of dobutamine infusion in this patient population. Participants will be given increasing dosages of dobutamine infusion, and its effect on cardiac output and filling pressures will be assessed non-invasively by echocardiography, and invasively by right heart catheterization, simultaneously.
Descriptive cross-sectional study on 100 consecutive ATTRwt-CM patients reflecting all NAC stages aiming primarily to investigate ATTRwt-CM patient's quality of life (QoL) measures and their relation to ATTRwt-CM severity. Secondarily aiming to investigate the possibility to measure misTTR and fragTTR in plasma and urine and to detect fragTTR in endomyocardial biopsies from ATTRwt-CM patients. To investigate whether misTTR and fragTTR levels are correlated with ATTRwt-CM severity.
The aim of this study is to investigate the association between increased lifetime physical activity and the development of wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy.
This study will test a medicine, NNC6019-0001, for people who have a heart disease due to TTR amyloidosis. It will look at how safe this medicine is in the long term and if it can reduce symptoms of a heart disease due to TTR amyloidosis, such as heart failure. It is an extension to a study called "A research study to look at how a new medicine called NNC6019-0001 works and how safe it is for people who have a heart disease due to TTR amyloidosis". Only participants who have completed that study will be invited for this new study. Participants will get NNC6019-0001, regardless of whether they got placebo or NNC6019-0001 in the first study. The study will last for up to 157 weeks (36 months/3 years).
All ATTRwt patients on tafamidis 61 mg treatment will be clinically evaluated before treatment initiation and subsequently every six months for the eligibility to continue tafamidis treatment, according to Italian Medicines Agency regulations. C onsidering the significant risk of developing heart rhythm disturbances due to cardiac amyloidosis, especially in transthyretin form (ATTRwt), in routine clinical practice a stricter heart rhythm monitoring is recommended in ATTRwt patients. Moreover, particular attention is usually paid for those who present atrio-ventricular and/or intraventricular block at the baseline electrocardiogram. Data about rhythm disturbances and diuretic dose need will be collected during the planned physical examination every six months and the Holter ECG monitoring requested by the physician at the end of every planned clinical evaluation.
A prospective patients' registry collecting all new cases of AL amyloidosis evaluated at referral Centers from across Europe and a sample sharing network will be created to study mechanisms of the disease through the use of advanced molecular technologies and big data analysis tools.
Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) has recently been reported as a common cause of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF), with a prevalence of 6% in elderly HFpEF patients. However, the diagnosis of CA is still challenging and requires multiple costly investigations. Regardless of the type of CA, TTR or AL, early diagnosis significantly improves prognosis. In this study, the investigators aimed to determine the prevalence of CA in Tunisian HFpEF patients and to identify clinical and ultrasound criteria predictive of CA.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of eplontersen compared to placebo on the reduction of serum TTR concentration and long-term safety in Chinese participants with hereditary or wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy.
Achievement of complete hematologic response (CHR) is vital for systemic AL amyloidosis. Currently, the CHR rate of daratumumab, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (DBD) is close to 60%. Considering that Bcl-2 inhibitor is effective for AL amyloidosis with t(11; 14) and the median hematologic onset time of DBD is 7 days. We design a a prospective study on AL amyloidosis with t(11; 14). All patients receive DBD at the beginning. Patient will receive DBD for at least 6 cycles if achieve rapid hematologic response at day 7, while other patients will receive daratumumab, venetoclax and dexamethasone.
