Acoramidis therapy significantly increases serum transthyretin (sTTR) levels in participants with TTR amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), compared with tafamidis plus placebo, according to a study being presented at ACC.25.
In this study, researchers analyzed the efficacy of tafamidis when administered concomitantly with acoramidis in increasing sTTR levels in patients from the ATTRibute-CM study. Patients were randomized in 2:1 fashion to receive either acoramidis or placebo. After 12 months, the study population could initiate concomitant tafamidis treatment, with sTTR levels monitored over a duration of 30 months.
The investigators noted that at month 12, the mean (SEM) changes from baseline in sTTR levels were as follows: acoramidis all, 7.9 (0.31) mg/dL and placebo all, −0.6 (0.33) mg/dL. Furthermore, at month 30, the mean (SEM) changes from baseline in sTTR levels were as follows: acoramidis only, 9.1 (0.38) mg/dL; placebo+ tafamidis, 6.4 (1.24) mg/dL; and acoramidis+ tafamidis, 8.9 (0.79) mg/dL. In the placebo-only group, researchers observed a mild decrease in sTTR levels after 30 months. Overall, acoramidis therapy was well tolerated across all groups.
