Abstract
Background:
The long-term efficacy and safety of vutrisiran in hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN) were assessed in the HELIOS-A randomized treatment extension (RTE).
Methods:
Patients who completed the 18-month, phase 3, open-label HELIOS-A study could enter an open-label RTE with re-randomization 1:1 to vutrisiran 25 mg every 3 months (Q3M) or 50 mg every 6 months (Q6M; transitioned to 25 mg Q3M following an amendment) for up to 42 months (RTE M18 efficacy assessment; RTE M42 safety and transthyretin (TTR) levels).
Results:
In the RTE, 149 patients were re-randomized to vutrisiran (25 mg Q3M [n = 76]; 50 mg Q6M [n = 73]). Mean serum TTR reduction from study baseline at RTE M42 for the total vutrisiran group was 84.5%. Efficacy was sustained from RTE baseline through RTE M18 in modified Neuropathy Impairment Score +7, Norfolk Quality of Life-Diabetic Neuropathy score, 10-meter walk test, Rasch-built Overall Disability Scale and modified body mass index (mBMI); most patients (67.8%) had stable polyneuropathy disability scores. Most AEs were mild/moderate in severity with no new safety concerns.
Conclusions:
Results from the HELIOS-A RTE demonstrate relative stability with only modest changes in disease activity, sustained serum TTR reductions, and an acceptable safety profile with long-term vutrisiran treatment in patients with ATTRv-PN.
