Abstract
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a progressive form of restrictive cardiomyopathy caused by the misfolding and deposition of transthyretin protein. What was once a condition that had little by way of treatment other than liver transplantation has now become a manageable disease due to revolutionary novel therapies. This review outlines therapeutic strategies aimed at halting or reversing disease progression. Current approaches include transthyretin (TTR) stabilizers such as tafamidis and acoramidis, as well as TTR silencers such as vutisiran. In addition, novel therapies under clinical investigation are emerging, such as gene-editing strategies and monoclonal antibodies targeting amyloid deposits. The aim of this paper is to investigate the current literature and ongoing clinical trials exploring treatment options for ATTR-CM. Transthyretin stabilizers and RNA silencers improve survival, functional capacity, and quality of life. Early-phase studies of gene-editing and monoclonal antibody therapies demonstrate promising amyloid-lowering effects. Stabilizers and silencers continue to constitute the standard therapy, while gene-editing and monoclonal antibodies offer potential as future treatments. The advent of a multitude of therapies for ATTR-CM holds promise for a future of targeted, personalized medicine for the treatment of this not-so-uncommon cause of heart failure.
