- The objectives of THAOS are to describe the population of patients affected with TTR amyloidosis and to enhance the understanding of the disease natural history, including the variability and progression of the hereditary and acquired forms of disease. [ Time Frame: Dec 2007 to June 2023 ]Cardiovascular and Neurological efficacy endpoints for analysis of clinical outcomes on all enrolled patients with available data. Outcomes will be examined for the entire patient group, as well as through subgroups based on important variables.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Sampling Method: | Non-Probability Sample |
Inclusion Criteria: Patients must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for inclusion into THAOS:
- Evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the participant (or a legally acceptable representative) has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the study.
- Males and females greater than or equal to 18 years of age.
-
Confirmed genotyped TTR mutation with or without a diagnosis of hereditary or wild-type ATTR amyloidosis. Confirmation of ATTRwt amyloidosis will be determined by genotyped confirmation that patient does not possess a known mutation in TTR gene (ie, is a carrier of wild-type allele only) via genetic testing and one of the following set of criteria (a, b, or c):
- Presence of amyloid in cardiac biopsy tissue confirmed as TTR amyloid by mass spectrometry or immunohistochemistry; or
- Evidence of cardiac involvement by echocardiogram as defined by left ventricle wall thickness of >12 mm, and presence of amyloid in non-cardiac tissue confirmed as TTR amyloid by mass spectrometry or immunohistochemistry; or
- Evidence of cardiac involvement by echocardiogram as defined by left ventricle wall thickness of >12 mm, and presence of amyloid in cardiac tissue indirectly confirmed by scintigraphy with a "bone seeking tracer" eg, 99mTC-DPD [99mTC-3,3-diphosphono-1,2-propano-dicarboxylic acid], 99mTC- PYP [Pyrophosphate], and 99mTC-HMDP [hydroxymethylene diphosphonate] with Perugini grade greater than or equal to 2.
Exclusion Criteria
Patients meeting any of the following will not be included in the study:
1. Patient has evidence of primary (light chain) or secondary amyloidosis.
