Abstract:
Progressive deterioration of frailty is associated with poor outcomes in patients with transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis. Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR amyloidosis) is a heterogeneous disorder with cardiac, neurologic, and mixed phenotypes. We describe the phenotypic and genotypic profiles of this disease as it appears from the Transthyretin Amyloidosis Survey (THAOS). ATTR amyloidosis genotypes and phenotypes are highly heterogeneous. A geographic map of the different disease profiles and awareness that a subset of subjects have a dominant cardiac phenotype, mimicking hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, at presentation can facilitate the clinical recognition of this underdiagnosed disease. THAOS is an ongoing, worldwide, longitudinal, observational survey established to study differences in presentation, diagnosis, and natural history in ATTR amyloidosis subjects. At data cut-off, 1411 symptomatic subjects from nine countries were enrolled in THAOS. Genotypes and phenotypes varied notably by country. Subjects with cardiac mutations had a lower survival rate than subjects in other genotype (or the neurologic phenotype) categories.
