ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial, called TRITON-CM, is studying a new medicine called nucresiran for people who have a condition called transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy. This condition happens when abnormal proteins build up in the heart, making it harder for the heart to work properly. The study aims to see if nucresiran can help reduce the risk of death and serious heart problems compared to a placebo (a treatment with no active medicine). The researchers will also look at how the medicine affects patients’ overall health and quality of life, based on what the patients report.
People eligible for this study are adults diagnosed with transthyretin amyloidosis affecting the heart, including both inherited and non-inherited forms. They must have a history of heart failure, including at least one hospital stay because of it, and meet certain blood test levels related to heart stress. Participants may already be taking other heart or amyloidosis medicines. However, those with very advanced heart failure or severe nerve problems, or who have kidney problems or have previously used similar treatments, cannot join. If you take part, you can expect to be closely monitored and receive either the new medicine or a placebo, with the goal of understanding how well nucresiran works and how it might improve heart health and daily living.
