Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults 18–80 with biopsy-confirmed transthyretin amyloid deposits, a disease-associated TTR mutation, stage 1 peripheral neuropathy, and Karnofsky score ≥50.

Probably not a fit

Patients with other forms of amyloidosis, recent tafamidis or other ATTR-specific therapy use, or more advanced disease stages are unlikely to benefit from enrollment.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a phase 4 interventional study giving tafamidis meglumine soft capsules to adults with biopsy-confirmed transthyretin amyloid deposits and a disease-associated TTR mutation who have stage 1 peripheral neuropathy. Eligible participants are 18–80 years old with a Karnofsky Performance Status ≥50 and no other causes of amyloidosis. The protocol excludes recent use of tafamidis or other ATTR-specific therapies and limits NSAID exposure. Participants will be followed for measures of efficacy and safety per the study protocol at the enrolling site.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this could slow neuropathy progression and improve quality of life for adults with ATTR-PN.

How similar studies have gone: Tafamidis has been studied and used for transthyretin amyloidosis previously, with prior trials showing benefit in slowing disease progression, so this study builds on established therapy.
