Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of ATTR Cardiomyopathy among patients admitted due to Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH) >15mm of unknown etiology by using a 99mTc-tracer scintigraphy based protocol
Those with abnormal vital signs after TAVR need to be willing to obtain a bone scan to evaluate for wildtype amyloidosis. Positive bone scan findings will require evaluation for primary amyloidosis with blood and urine monoclonal immunoglobulin testing. Primary amyloidosis is a different type of disease which requires different treatment.
Evaluate MyoStrain cardiac MRI pulse sequence in Clinical practice
In this study, the investigators will recruit a cohort of elderly Black and Hispanic patients with heart failure to define the number of patients who have cardiac amyloidosis by utilizing highly sensitive heart imaging and blood tests. The investigators will also explore differences in genetics and sex as they relate to heart failure disease progression in cardiac amyloidosis.
[18F]Florbetaben PET/CT imaging will noninvasively assess amyloid deposition in systemic amyloidosis.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the natural history of leukocyte chemotactic factor 2 amyloidotic (ALECT2) disease. In this observational study participants with ALECT2 disease will be enrolled. Participants, who have already reached end-stage renal disease (ESRD), will provide retrospective chart review data and biological specimens at baseline only. Other participants, in addition to retrospective chart review, will be followed prospectively.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vutrisiran (ALN-TTRSC02) in participants with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR amyloidosis). Participants will receive vutrisiran subcutaneous (SC) injection once every 3 months (q3M) or the reference comparator patisiran intravenous (IV) injection once every 3 weeks (q3w) during the 18 month Treatment Period. This study will use the placebo arm of the APOLLO study (NCT01960348) as an external comparator for the primary and most other efficacy endpoints during the 18 Month Treatment Period. Following the 18 Month Treatment Period, all participants will be randomized to receive vutrisiran SC injection once every 6 months (q6M) or q3M in the Randomized Treatment Extension (RTE) Period.
To evaluate the safety and tolerability, as well as the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of single and multiple doses of Eplontersen administered subcutaneously to healthy volunteers and patients with Hereditary Transthyretin-Mediated Amyloidosis (hATTR ).
TTR-FAP is a rare disabling inherited disorder that predominantly affects the peripheral nervous system and the heart. Due to an important phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity, the diagnosis is often delayed, preventing therefore early onset treatment. Our project is to evaluate the prevalence of TTR-FAP in a series of 130 patients with from chronic neuropathy of undetermined aetiology through a systematic screening of TTR mutations.
The primary purpose of this protocol is to create a registry of patients with plasma cell disorders (PCDs), including for example the cancer multiple myeloma (MM), who complete the assessment, previously known as a "geriatric assessment," as is outlined in this protocol. Secondary objectives include measuring the response rate to participation of patients in this study, assessing patient satisfaction with the questionnaire, and gathering information that would lend support for future research into these types of assessments in patients with PCDs. Additionally the study offers an optional blood draw to look at a genetic marker of aging called p16INK4a (IRB 15-1899, IRB 15-0244).
