Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy-2025 Update: Current Diagnostic Approaches and Emerging Therapeutic Options.
(PubMed, J Clin Med)
- "First-generation therapies such as tafamidis have demonstrated survival benefits in ATTR-CM. More recently, second-generation agents-such as the TTR stabilizer acoramidis and RNA silencers including vutrisiran and eplontersen-have shown promising efficacy in clinical trials...This review outlines current diagnostic strategies and therapeutic options for ATTR amyloidosis, emphasizing the need for early detection and individualized treatment approaches. The expanding therapeutic landscape highlights the importance of accurate phenotyping and timely intervention to optimize clinical outcomes."

Pharmacological Management of Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy: Where We Are and Where We Are Going.
(PubMed, J Clin Med)
- "TTR stabilizers, such as tafamidis and acoramidis, can reduce TTR instability and subsequent amyloid fibril formation...Gene-silencing therapies using small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), such as patisiran and vutrisiran, or antisense oligonucleotide inhibitors (ASOs), such as inotersen and eplontersen, serve as powerful therapeutic options by decreasing TTR production; trials on patients with ATTR-CM have been recently published or are ongoing. Novel, emerging therapies aim to enhance fibril clearance using monoclonal antibodies, such as NI006, that target amyloid deposits in the myocardium, promoting their depletion, plausibly with regression of the structural and functional impairments caused by the disease...Future directions will involve improving patients' screening to achieve earlier diagnoses, optimising patients' selection for disease-modifying therapy and identifying criteria for the treatment's response or lack thereof to possibly consider therapy..."

IMPROVEMENT IN MEASURES OF QUALITY OF LIFE AMONG PATIENTS RECEIVING TARGETTED THERAPY FOR ATTR AMYLOIDOSIS: A META-ANALYSIS OF DATA FROM RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIALS - Shubhashis Saha
(ACC 2025)
- "Background: Novel drugs like patisiran, vutrisiran, tafamidis, acoramidis, eplontersen, and inotersen reduce the synthesis and deposition of TTR amyloid fibrils in patients with cardiac amyloidosis. Contemporary drugs for cardiac amyloidosis improved quality of life and 6MWT, while having a good safety profile. Although they are usually classified as secondary outcomes in many clinical trials, these improvements would be more relevant to the patients in short to medium term."

GEOGRAPHIC DISPARITIES IN CARDIAC AMYLOIDOSIS PRESCRIBING PATTERNS: INSIGHTS FROM EPIC COSMOS - Mirza S. Khan
(ACC 2025)
- "Medications included novel amyloid therapies tafamidis, vutrisiran, patisiran, eplontersen, inotersen and diflunisal. The highest prescription rates for cardiac amyloidosis therapies were in the Northeast U.S., known to have a high density of dedicated amyloidosis centers. Our findings underscore the need for efforts to improve recognition and diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis and improve treatment access in underserved regions."

WAINZUA (eplontersen) approved in the EU for the treatment of hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis in adults with stage 1 or stage 2 polyneuropathy
(Businesswire)
- "Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc...announced today that Ionis and AstraZeneca’s WAINZUA (eplontersen) has been approved in the European Union (EU) for the treatment of hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis in adult patients with stage 1 or stage 2 polyneuropathy, commonly referred to as hATTR-PN or ATTRv-PN. WAINZUA is the only approved medicine in the EU for the treatment of ATTRv-PN that can be self-administered monthly via an auto-injector...The approval is based on the positive NEURO-TTRansform Phase 3 trial which showed that through 66 weeks, patients treated with WAINZUA demonstrated consistent and sustained benefit on the co-primary endpoints of serum transthyretin (TTR) concentration and neuropathy impairment measured by modified Neuropathy Impairment Score +7 (mNIS+7), and key secondary endpoint of quality of life (QoL) on the Norfolk Quality of Life Questionnaire-Diabetic Neuropathy (Norfolk QoL-DN) versus external placebo."

RNAi-based Therapies for Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis with Polyneuropathy: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials
(AAN 2025)
- "Subgroup analysis is performed based on individual RNAi drugs.We included 5 trials involving 595 patients received Patisiran, Eplontersen, Inotersen, or Vutisiran. Our results suggest that RNAi-based therapies are promising for hATTR with polyneuropathy treatment, showing improvements in neurological function, quality of life, and an acceptable safety profile. However, evidence is limited, with heterogeneity in long-term safety and effectiveness across studies. Further randomized trials are needed to clarify the role of RNAi therapeutics and optimize patient outcomes."

NICE Recommends AstraZeneca’s Wainzua for ATTRv Amyloidosis, Citing Cost Savings Over Amvuttra
(NAVLIN DAILY)
- "The company provided clinical data from the NEURO-TTRansform trial, a Phase III, multicenter, open-label, randomized study. Evidence suggests Wainzua is more effective than placebo in reducing transthyretin blood levels and extends the time before polyneuropathy worsens. Although no direct comparisons exist between Wainzua and vutrisiran, an indirect analysis indicates comparable efficacy. Additionally, a cost comparison shows that Wainzua is cost-saving compared to Amvuttra, leading to its recommendation."
