Clinical Phenotype and Prognosis of Asymptomatic Patients With Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloid Infiltration

This study shows that asymptomatic ATTR cardiac amyloid infiltration encompasses a wide spectrum of disease severity, with patients with grade 2 or 3 cardiac uptake experiencing an increased rate of CV events and CV mortality and patients with grade 1 uptake experiencing a lower CV event rate and predominantly non-CV mortality. These findings support the use of disease-modifying treatments in asymptomatic patients with grade 2 or 3 uptake and highlight the need of large-scale studies to assess their role in grade 1 uptake.
