A novel monoclonal antibody targeting aggregated transthyretin facilitates its removal and functional recovery in an experimental model.

Aims: Cardiac amyloidosis typically manifests as heart failure with preserved left ventricular function due to extracellular plaques comprising aggregated TTR. Despite recent success in halting disease progression with a TTR stabilizer and encouraging preliminary findings with TTR silencers, these agents are not targeting preexisting plaques. Herein, we report the development of a novel monoclonal antibody capable of attenuating experimental cardiac amyloidosis.
