Filter by: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.
This single-practice prospective cohort study aims to enhance the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis in high-risk patients undergoing standard cardiac device implantation. By analyzing chest wall fat tissue, which is usually discarded, we aim to determine the diagnostic yield of such biopsies for amyloidosis and to develop a predictive screening model based on clinical, lab, and imaging data. The study, running from December 2023 to December 2024, expects to enroll 100 patients and may provide a new, non-invasive diagnostic avenue for this condition.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of ALXN2220 in the treatment of adult participants with ATTR-CM by evaluating the difference between the ALXN2220 and placebo groups as assessed by the composite endpoint of all-cause mortality (ACM) and total cardiovascular (CV) clinical events.
Immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis is the most common form of systemic amyloidosis. AL amyloidosis has many root causes and is characterized by the overproduction of AL that are secreted by clonal bone marrow plasma cells. This is a study to determine adverse events and change in disease activity in adult participants with AL amyloidosis treated with ABBV-383. ABBV-383 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of AL amyloidosis. This study in broken into 2 parts (dose escalation and safety expansion) with 5 arms. During dose escalation (arms 1-3) participants will receive 1 of 3 doses of ABBV-383 to determine the part 2 doses. After completion of the dose escalation portion of the study, the safety expansion (part 2) portion of the study will begin. Two arms (arm 4-5) will begin and participants will receive 1 of 2 doses as determined during the dose escalation portion (part 1). Around 76 adult participants with relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis will be enrolled at approximately 20 sites across the world. Participants will receive ABBV-383 as an infusion into the vein for up to approximately 2 year study duration. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and questionnaires.
This is a clinical registry of patients with cardiac amyloidosis being treated at University Hospital Leipzig. The aim of the registry is to collect detailed information about clinical events, symptoms, imaging, biomarkers, comorbidities, and treatment from routine patient management which would not be provided by randomized clinical trails.
The dual pathology of aortic stenosis (AS) and cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is increasingly recognized. Even tough efforts have been undertaken to bring cohorts together, the largest cohort of AS-ATTR to date is <50 patients. It is the aim of the present international, multi-center registry to collect ~300 patients with AS-CA creating a big enough cohort to allow 1. thorough characterization of this condition 2. assessment of log-term clinical outcomes of AS-CA 3. assessment of effectiveness of amyloid-specific treatment on top of valve replacement
