BACKGROUND: Transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy is a progressive disease caused by the deposition of transthyretin (TTR) as amyloid in the myocardium. Current therapies may slow disease progression but do not clear existing deposits. Coramitug is a humanized monoclonal antibody that targets misfolded transthyretin, designed to promote clearance of transthyretin amyloid through antibody-mediated phagocytosis. METHODS: This phase 2, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial randomized participants with transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy to receive infusions every 4 weeks of either coramitug at 2 dosages (10 mg/kg or 60 mg/kg) or placebo in a 1:1:1 ratio for 52 weeks. The primary end points were the change from baseline to week 52 in the 6-minute walk test and NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide) levels. Safety was assessed for up to 64 weeks by assessing treatment-emergent adverse events, all-cause mortality, and number of cardiovascular events (comprising hospitalization caused by cardiovascular events or urgent heart failure visits). RESULTS: In total, 104 participants (median age, 77 years; 93% men; 84% New York Heart Association class II; 13% with variant transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy) were randomized and dosed: 34 to 10 mg/kg of coramitug, 35 to 60 mg/kg of coramitug, and 35 to placebo. Median NT-proBNP was 1985 pg/mL (interquartile range, 1224, 3406). In total, 90% of participants were receiving disease-modifying therapy;...
