TTR can misfold into pathogenic amyloid fibrils that deposit in the heart and nerves, causing a life-threatening transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), and a progressive and debilitating polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN). Recent therapeutic advances have resulted in the development of drugs that reduce TTR production. Patisiran is a small interfering RNA that disrupts the complimentary mRNA and inhibits TTR synthesis, and is the first gene-silencing medication licensed for the treatment of ATTR amyloidosis. After encouraging results following the use of patisiran for the treatment of patients with ATTR-PN, there has been increasing interest in the use of patisiran for the treatment of ATTR-CM. Various studies have demonstrated improvements across a wide range of cardiac biomarkers following treatment with patisiran, and have changed the perception of ATTR-CM from being thought of as a terminal disease process, to now being regarded as a treatable disease. These successes represent a huge milestone and have the potential to revolutionize the landscape of treatment for ATTR-CM. However, the long-term safety of patisiran and how best to monitor cardiac response to treatment remain to be determined.</p>","PeriodicalId":12836,"journal":{"name":"Heart International","volume":"17 1","pages":"27-35"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10339464/pdf/touchcardio-17-1-27.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9879971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
