Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Transthyretin (ATTR) cardiac amyloidosis

Subjects diagnosed with ATTR cardiac amyloidosis will have CMR, TTE, and 6-minute walk

Cardiac magnetic resonance image (CMR)

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A magnetic resonance imaging study for assessment of cardiac structure and intracardiac flow

Transthoracic Echocardiogram (TTE)

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

An imaging test that uses soundwaves that cannot be heard (ultrasound) to take pictures of the heart and vessels.

Six-minute Walk Test

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A self-paced, test of exercise capacity performed unencouraged intensity that measures the distance that patients can walk on a flat, hard surface in a period of 6 minutes

Light chain amyloidosis (AL) with cardiac involvement

Subjects diagnosed with AL with cardiac involvement will have CMR, TTE, and 6-minute walk

Cardiac magnetic resonance image (CMR)

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A magnetic resonance imaging study for assessment of cardiac structure and intracardiac flow

Transthoracic Echocardiogram (TTE)

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

An imaging test that uses soundwaves that cannot be heard (ultrasound) to take pictures of the heart and vessels.

Six-minute Walk Test

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A self-paced, test of exercise capacity performed unencouraged intensity that measures the distance that patients can walk on a flat, hard surface in a period of 6 minutes
