Filter by:The MaesTTRo study aims to enroll a global cohort of patients with transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis to longitudinally observe the natural course of the disease and describe real-world treatment patterns and outcomes. In addition, information on the effectiveness of ATTR amyloidosis treatments, including eplontersen, which is a ligand-conjugated antisense oligonucleotide gene silencing treatment targeting activity against both the mutant and wild-type TTR protein, will be collected.
Patients operated for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) at Ålesund Hospital (200 patients) will have a biopsy to diagnose ATTR amyloidosis. Patients with positive biopsy will be examined to decide wether they have cardiac amyloidosis. All patients with positive biopsy will be followed closely for 10 years wit echocardiography an clinically.
Tne aim purpose of this observational, multicentre and propective study is to determine the prevalence of cardiac amyloidosis in geriatric patients aged 80 years and older hospitalized within the last 12 months for heart failure with left ventricular hypertrophy (septum ≥ 12 mm) on echocardiography
A pre-post study will be conducted to assess whether treatment with LXB, nVNS or a combination of both interventions can enhance the clearance of Aβ in patients with CAA. A total of 60 subjects, 30 with sCAA and 30 with D-CAA, will be randomly assigned to receive LXB, or both interventions. The primary outcome measure will be the morning levels of Aβ40 and Aβ42 in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) before and after the intervention. The investigators will assess disease progression with (non-)haemorrhagic imaging markers on 7-Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging (7-T MRI) as a secondary outcome. Additionally, the activity of the glymphatic system by means of fluid dynamics will be assessed using 7-T MRI.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an oral drug called dapagliflozin is safe and can reduce high protein levels in the urine of patients with renal amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis using a decentralized study design. Participants will be: - screened for the trial via an online platform - contacted by study personal to obtain electronic consent - enrolled in the trial if eligible and consented - contacted by study personal for further instructions and directions - sent dapagliflozin oral medication (supplied by the site pharmacy) - followed up regularly with the study team via telemedicine or other online avenues - monitored using lab work, inquiries about side effects and assessment of protocol adherence at 1 month, 3 months and 6 months - continue treatment for 6 months
In this multicenter study, we will recruit 400 patients 40 years of age or older at 15 centers with a diagnosis of smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), a group of patients for whom standard of care is observation not treatment. The main goal of this study is to screen for the diagnosis of light-chain amyloidosis (AL) before the onset of symptomatic disease and to develop a training set for a likelihood algorithm.
Patients with autoinflammatory diseases (AID) have recurrent episodes of systemic inflammation accompanied by nonspecific elevation of blood inflammation markers typically absent between attacks. A complication of autoinflammatory diseases is AA amyloidosis, which can lead to renal failure and dialysis. Advances in genetic analysis have led to the identification of new autoinflammatory diseases and thus new pathophysiological pathways. However, genetic analyses are sometimes confronted with results that are difficult to interpret. These are the Variants of Unknown Significance, for which genetic analysis alone does not allow to determine if the genetic mutation is responsible for the symptoms. genetic analysis sometimes has limitations in the diagnosis of AID which can only be overcome by pathophysiological studies of the variants found.
The investigators of this registry aim to study the natural history, clinical presentation, characteristics, and imaging findings of patients diagnosed with ATTR amyloidosis in Thailand longitudinally. This will enable the investigators to study this disease in depth. With a better understanding, the investigators can aim to develop early screening programs for at-risk patients, raising awareness among non-cardiologists. As amyloid-specific therapies have now become available in Thailand, the findings of this registry can be helpful for epidemiological studies in Thailand.
This study is researching an experimental drug called linvoseltamab ("study drug"). This study is focused on patients who have AL amyloidosis that has returned or have failed other therapies and need to be treated again. The study consists of 2 phases (Phase 1 and Phase 2): - In Phase 1, linvoseltamab will be given to a small number of participants to study the side effects of the study drug and to determine the recommended doses of the study drug to be given to participants in Phase 2. - In Phase 2, linvoseltamab will be given to more participants to continue to assess the side effects of the study drug and to evaluate the ability of linvoseltamab to treat AL amyloidosis. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: - How many participants treated with linvoseltamab have improvement in the abnormal proteins that cause organ problems and for how long - How many participants treated with linvoseltamab have improvement in the heart or kidney and for how long - What the right dosing regimen is for linvoseltamab - What side effects may happen from taking linvoseltamab - How much linvoseltamab is in your blood at different times - Whether the body makes antibodies against linvoseltamab (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)
