Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a serious and life-threatening condition where a protein called transthyretin (TTR) misfolds and builds up as amyloid fibrils in the heart muscle.

There are two forms of ATTR-CM: a hereditary or 'variant' form (vATTR-CM) caused by a gene mutation, and a 'wild-type' form (wtATTR-CM) which is associated with aging. Because its symptoms can be similar to other heart conditions, ATTR-CM is often diagnosed late. However, recent advances in medical imaging are helping doctors to identify the disease earlier. Acoramidis is a new medication designed to treat ATTR-CM. It works by stabilizing the TTR protein, preventing it from misfolding and forming the harmful amyloid deposits. Acoramidis has been shown to be effective and safe in a
