Eplontersen for Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy.

Eplontersen, an antisense oligonucleotide that reduces hepatic transthyretin production, did not reduce cardiovascular death or recurrent cardiovascular events in transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy. In the phase 3 CARDIO-TTRansform trial, 1432 patients received subcutaneous eplontersen 45 mg or placebo every 4 weeks for 140 weeks; the primary composite occurred at a rate ratio of 0.89 (95% CI, 0.73 to 1.09; P = 0.28). The finding leaves no demonstrated outcome benefit for eplontersen on top of standard treatment in ATTR-CM.
