A Phase IIb, Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multicentre Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Concomitant Use of Eplontersen and ALXN2220 Compared With Eplontersen and Placebo in Adult Participants With Transthyretin-Mediated Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM)
The purpose of this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of concomitant use of eplontersen and ALXN2220 compared with eplontersen and placebo in adult participants with Transthyretin-mediated amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM).
• Participant must be ≥ 18 years to ≤ 85 years at the time of signing the informed consent.
• Participants who have a diagnosis of ATTR-CM with either wild-type or variant TTR genotype based on 1 of the following:
‣ Endomyocardial biopsy with confirmatory TTR amyloid typing OR
⁃ Grade 2 or 3 cardiac uptake on 99mTc scintigraphy in the absence of monoclonal gammopathy OR
⁃ Grade 2 or 3 cardiac uptake on 99mTc scintigraphy AND confirmatory TTR amyloid typing in the presence of monoclonal gammopathy.
• NYHA Class I to III at Screening and life expectancy of ≥ 1 year as per the Investigator's judgement.
• End-diastolic IVST ≥ 12 mm on echocardiography.
• NT-proBNP ≥ 600pg/mL for participants without ongoing atrial fibrillation/flutter at Screening or NT-proBNP ≥ 1200pg/mL for participants with ongoing atrial fibrillation/flutter at Screening.
• Able to complete symptom-limited maximal CPET at Screening based on the following test criteria:
‣ Able to exercise to near exhaustion during CPET as exhibited by RER ≥ 1.0 during symptom-limited CPET conducted during screening.
⁃ If participant does not achieve RER ≥1.0, the CPET may be repeated once, at least 48 hours but less than 2 weeks (but before randomization) after the initial test.
• Treated according to locally recognised guidelines on standard-of-care treatment for patients with HF. Therapy should have been individually optimised and stable for ≥ 4 weeks (except diuretics) and include, unless contraindicated or not tolerated, treatment of high BP (targeting SBP \< 130 mmHg as suggested in 2022 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association/Heart Failure Society of America HF guidelines), and ischaemic heart disease.
• Willingness to adhere to daily self-administered vitamin A supplementation (3000 IU).
