Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a single-center observational study evaluating the potential value of NfL as a biomarker for diagnosis, detection of disease onset, monitoring of disease progression, and treatment response in asymptomatic carriers of TTR variants and symptomatic hATTR amyloidosis patients with polyneuropathy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this study, participants' data will be extracted from their medical records or collected based on clinical and laboratory assessments during routine visits, per the site's standard of care. Blood samples collected from the participants during routine visits will also be used for analysis. The study will be conducted in two parts: Cross-Sectional part during which a single measurement of NfL levels will be performed using blood samples collected from asymptomatic carriers, and symptomatic hATTR amyloidosis patients; Longitudinal part during which measurements of NfL levels will be performed over time using blood samples (already collected from the participants during routine visits) from asymptomatic carriers and patients with symptomatic hATTR amyloidosis.

Study Groups

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

Asymptomatic Carriers

Participants who are asymptomatic carriers of a pathogenic TTR variant, and not diagnosed with hATTR amyloidosis with polyneuropathy will be enrolled in this cohort.

Standard of Care

Intervention Type OTHER

This is an observational study. No study drug will be administered as a part of the study, participants will be treated according to the decision of the treating physician.

Participants with hATTR Amyloidosis with Polyneuropathy

Participants with a confirmed diagnosis of hATTR amyloidosis with polyneuropathy with a documented TTR variant will be enrolled in this cohort.

Standard of Care

Intervention Type OTHER

This is an observational study. No study drug will be administered as a part of the study, participants will be treated according to the decision of the treating physician.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria
