Importance: There is a lack of long-term efficacy and safety data on hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (hATTR-PN) and on RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutics in general. This study presents the longest-term data to date on patisiran for hATTR-PN.

Objective: To present the long-term efficacy and safety of patisiran in adults with hATTR-PN.

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are the most advanced delivery system currently available for RNA therapeutics. Their development has accelerated since the success of Patisiran, the first siRNA-LNP therapeutic, and the mRNA vaccines that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic. Designing LNPs with specific targeting, high potency, and minimal side effects is crucial for their successful clinical use.

Article Synopsis
  • RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutics, specifically patisiran and vutrisiran, were studied for their effects on transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CA) by analyzing SPECT/CT imaging outcomes.
  • Eight patients with hereditary ATTR-CA were monitored, with one group starting RNAi treatment alongside their first imaging, and another group being on treatment prior to imaging.
  • Findings revealed a significant decrease in a volumetric heart/lung ratio in patients receiving RNAi therapies, indicating potential benefits in managing ATTR-CA symptoms.

Article Synopsis
  • * A thorough literature review assessed 858 studies, resulting in the selection of 10 studies involving 756 patients, revealing both therapies improved neuropathy, quality of life, and cardiac function, with manageable side effects.
  • * The systematic review supports the use of Patisiran and Vutrisiran for treating ATTRv, showing significant benefits and good safety profiles, but it calls for more extensive future studies due to potential biases and limited follow-up time in some research. *

Background: Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv; v for variant) with polyneuropathy is a rare, progressive, and fatal autosomal dominant disorder. Therapies such as liver transplantation and TTR stabilizations have limitations. Patisiran is a small interfering RNA (siRNA), offering potential as a genetic-level therapy for hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN).
