Emerging Therapies for Transthyretin Amyloidosis.
Current Oncology Reports 2023 March 22
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review provides an overview of the available therapies for treating neuropathic and/or cardiac manifestations of transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR), as well as investigational therapeutic agents in ongoing clinical trials. We discuss additional emergent approaches towards thwarting this life-threatening disease that until recently was considered virtually untreatable.
RECENT FINDINGS: Advances in noninvasive diagnostic methods for detecting ATTR have facilitated easier diagnosis and detection at an earlier stage of disease when therapeutic interventions are likely to be more effective. There are now several ATTR-directed treatments that are clinically available, as well as investigational agents that are being studied in clinical trials. Therapeutic strategies include tetramer stabilization, gene silencing, and fibril disruption. ATTR has been historically underdiagnosed. With advances in diagnostic methods and the advent of disease-modifying treatments, early diagnosis and initiation of treatment is revolutionizing management of this disease.
