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.
2 years
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Explore minimum criteria considered for the onset of disease in patients carrying the Val50Met variant initially identified as asymptomatic.
2 years
Study Arms (1)
Carriers of the Val50Met variant
Patients with positive genetic test for patogenic variant of the TTR gene
