A new study presented at ACC.25 shows that acoramidis therapy induces a significant increase in serum transthyretin (sTTR), which is typically lower in patients with variant TTR amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRv-CM).
The investigators noted that all outcomes were analyzed using a stratified Cox proportional hazard model.
The findings showed that at baseline, sTTR was lower in individuals with ATTRv-CM than in patients with wild-type TTR amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM). After acoramidis therapy, the study found that patients with ATTRv-CM had greater increases in sTTR, yet achieved sTTR levels similar to those of patients with ATTRwt-CM. The investigators further noted that this increase was stable through month 30. Overall, in a prespecified subgroup analysis of time to all-cause mortality or cardiovascular-related hospitalization, the findings of the Cox-proportional hazard model were observed to be statistically significant in both patients with ATTRv-CM (hazard ratio [HR], 0.41; 95% CI, 0.21-0.81) and those with ATTRwt-CM (HR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.52-0.90).
