Long-term efficacy and safety of inotersen for hereditary transthyretin amyloid...
Brannagan, Thomas H.; Coelho, Teresa; Wang, Annabel K.; Polydefkis, Michael J.; Dyck, Peter J.; Berk, John L.; Drachman, Brian; Gorevic, PeterBackground: Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR/ATTRv) results from the deposition of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) throughout the body, including peripheral nerves. Inotersen, an antisense oligonucleotide inhibitor of hepatic TTR production, demonstrated a favorable efficacy and safety profile in patients with the polyneuropathy associated with hATTR in the NEURO-TTR (NCT01737398) study. We report long...
Design and Rationale of the Global Phase 3 NEURO-TTRansform Study of Antisense ...
Coelho, Teresa; Ando, Yukio; Benson, Merrill D.; Berk, John L.; Waddington-Cruz, Márcia; Dyck, Peter J.; Gillmore, Julian D.; Khella, Sami L.Introduction: AKCEA-TTR-LRx is a ligand-conjugated antisense (LICA) drug in development for the treatment of hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR), a fatal disease caused by mutations in the transthyretin (TTR) gene. AKCEA-TTR-LRx shares the same nucleotide sequence as inotersen, an antisense medicine approved for use in hATTR polyneuropathy (hATTR-PN). Unlike inotersen, AKCEA-TTR-LRx is conjugated to a ...
Neuropathy symptom and change: Inotersen treatment of hereditary transthyretin ...
Dyck, P. James B.; Coelho, Teresa; Waddington Cruz, Marcia; Brannagan, Thomas H.; Khella, Sami; Karam, Chafic; Berk, John L.; Polydefkis, Michael J.Introduction: Hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (hATTR) manifests as multisystem dysfunction, including progressive polyneuropathy. Inotersen, an antisense oligonucleotide, improved the course of neuropathic impairment in patients with hATTR in the pivotal NEURO-TTR study (NCT01737398). To determine inotersen's impact on symptoms and patients' neuropathy experience, we performed a post hoc analysis ...
