Phenotyping and Characterization of Danish Wild-type Transthyretin Amyloidosis Cardiomyopathy Patients: A Cross-sectional Study

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

Descriptive cross-sectional study on 100 consecutive ATTRwt-CM patients reflecting all NAC stages aiming primarily to investigate ATTRwt-CM patient's quality of life (QoL) measures and their relation to ATTRwt-CM severity. Secondarily aiming to investigate the possibility to measure misTTR and fragTTR in plasma and urine and to detect fragTTR in endomyocardial biopsies from ATTRwt-CM patients. To investigate whether misTTR and fragTTR levels are correlated with ATTRwt-CM severity.
