Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Describe the phenotypic variables (preclinical, cardiological, neurological and mixed) in patients carrying the TTR Val50Met variant in a non-endemic population.

    The predominantly cardiac phenotype includes patients with abnormal ECG due to rhythm disturbance, heart failure, or dyspnea, minimal neurologic or GI symptoms, and diagnostic findings such as interventricular septum hypertrophy (\>12 mm), Holter monitoring, and \[99mTc\]Tc-DPD scintigraphy (Peugerini Score 1-3). The predominantly neurologic phenotype features patients with ongoing neurologic or GI symptoms definitively linked to ATTR amyloidosis, without abnormal ECG findings. Key assessments include autonomic neuropathy (orthostatic hypotension, sexual dysfunction), EMG, Norfolk QoL-DN (-4-246), COMPASS-31 (0-100), and NIS-LL (0-88). The mixed phenotype includes patients with abnormal ECG and neurologic or GI symptoms of any severity, failing to meet criteria for predominantly cardiac or neurologic phenotypes.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Explore minimum criteria considered for the onset of disease in patients carrying the Val50Met variant initially identified as asymptomatic.

Study Arms (1)

Carriers of the Val50Met variant

Patients with positive genetic test for patogenic variant of the TTR gene

Other: A complete physical examination of all body systems, including height and body weightOther: Neurological examination includes motor strength testing; sensory testing with pinprick, light touch, temperature, and proprioception; deep tendon reflexes; and gait assessment.Diagnostic Test: Electrocardiogram (12-lead ECG)Diagnostic Test: 24-Hour Holter MonitoringDiagnostic Test: Color Doppler echocardiography with "two-dimensional strain" (longitudinal strain)Other: The Norfolk Quality of Life-Diabetic Neuropathy (QOL-DN)Other: questionnaire, the NIS-LL (Neuropathy Impairment Score in the Lower Limbs)Other: COMPASS-31 (Composite Autonomic Symptom Score-31)Diagnostic Test: Electromyogram (EMG)Diagnostic Test: [99mTc]Tc-DPD scintigraphyDiagnostic Test: Laboratory assessments
