First‐Generation TTR Silencing Therapies in Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis With Polyneuropathy: Real‐World Insights From a German Single‐Referral Center

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 2, February 2026.
Real‐world long‐term treatment with the first‐generation TTR silencers, patisiran and inotersen, in patients with ATTRv‐PN is safe, consistently reducing serum TTR levels, stabilizing neurologic symptoms, cardiac and renal functions, and nutritional parameters.

Combination therapy using tafamidis and neurohormonal blockers for cardiac amyloidosis and a reduced ejection fraction: a case report

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2022
Cardiac amyloidosis usually presents with diastolic dysfunction, but sometimes systolic dysfunction develops, particularly at its advanced stage. However, the therapeutic strategy for patients with cardiac amyloidosis and systolic dysfunction remains ...

Influence of baseline neurologic severity on disease progression and the associated disease-modifying effects of tafamidis in patients with transthyretin amyloid polyneuropathy

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2018
Background Emerging evidence suggests that several factors can impact disease progression in transthyretin amyloid polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN). The present analysis used longitudinal data from Val30Met patients participating in the tafamidis (selective TTR ...

SGLT2 inhibitor therapy for transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: early tolerance and clinical response to dapagliflozin

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2023
Aims Sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) improve clinical outcomes in heart failure patients with reduced and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), but have not yet been investigated in transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy ...

Euglycemic Ketoacidosis Induced by Dapagliflozin in a Non‐Diabetic Patient With Cardiac Amyloidosis

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Dapagliflozin, though beneficial in heart failure, can rarely cause euglycemic ketoacidosis even in non‐diabetic patients. Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for metabolic acidosis in patients on SGLT2 inhibitors presenting with unexplained illness, regardless of blood glucose level.

Tafamidis for transthyretin familial amyloid polyneuropathy [PDF]

open access: yesNeurology, 2012
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 18 months of tafamidis treatment in patients with early-stage V30M transthyretin familial amyloid polyneuropathy (TTR-FAP).In this randomized, double-blind trial, patients received tafamidis 20 mg QD or placebo. Coprimary endpoints were the Neuropathy Impairment Score-Lower Limbs (NIS-LL) responder analysis (

Central nervous system involvement in cardiac amyloidosis: Redefining the heart‐brain axis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 56, Issue 1, January 2026.
Central nervous system involvement in cardiac amyloidosis. Amyloidosis is a systemic disease that can directly affect the central nervous system. Furthermore, the amyloid cardiomyopathy can indirectly affect the central nervous system by inducing systemic hypoperfusion and increasing the risk of acute ischaemic stroke.
