Abstract
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is an infiltrative cardiomyopathy that results from myocardial deposition of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) protein. The biology of amyloid formation has been elucidated resulting in several effective therapeutic strategies. Accordingly, the therapeutic landscape for ATTR-CM is rapidly evolving, with multiple disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) approved and others anticipated to be imminently available. Currently, DMT strategies involve either stabilization of TTR, thereby inhibiting misfolding, or reduction of hepatic TTR production, and antibodies (“depleters”) that facilitate amyloid fibril removal are under development. In this review, available evidence is synthesized and expert experience provided to assist clinicians in the complex navigation of treatment selection and the role of advanced therapies (heart transplantation and left ventricular assist device), as well as to identify key areas for future research.
期刊介绍:
JACC: Heart Failure publishes crucial findings on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment, and care of heart failure patients. The goal is to enhance understanding through timely scientific communication on disease, clinical trials, outcomes, and therapeutic advances. The Journal fosters interdisciplinary connections with neuroscience, pulmonary medicine, nephrology, electrophysiology, and surgery related to heart failure. It also covers articles on pharmacogenetics, biomarkers, and metabolomics.
