AMVUTTRA addresses the underlying cause of ATTR-CM and hATTR-PN with rapid knockdown of TTR1,3

Intervene early with AMVUTTRA, the first and only treatment approved for ATTR‑CM and hATTR‑PN1,21,22

  • AMVUTTRA is formulated for targeted delivery to the liver, the primary source of TTR production1,2
  • AMVUTTRA deploys the body’s natural silencing complex to act upstream of tetramer formation1,20

ATTR-CM=cardiomyopathy of transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis; hATTR-PN=polyneuropathy of hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis; mRNA=messenger RNA; RNAi=ribonucleic acid interference; TTR=transthyretin.

AMVUTTRA delivered RAPID KNOCKDOWN of TTR as early as 6 weeks in HELIOS-B3,23*

Knockdown of TTR was sustained through 30 months23†‡

  • In the HELIOS-B pivotal trial, serum TTR was evaluated in patients with ATTR-CM treated with 25 mg of AMVUTTRA via subcutaneous injection once every 3 months1
  • A similar reduction in TTR levels was observed regardless of baseline tafamidis use, disease type (wtATTR or hATTR), sex, age, weight, or race1
Select Important Safety Information:
AMVUTTRA treatment leads to a decrease in serum vitamin A levels. Supplement with the recommended daily allowance of vitamin A. Refer to an ophthalmologist if ocular symptoms suggestive of vitamin A deficiency occur.

*TTR knockdown was first measured in the serum at 6 weeks in HELIOS-B. 23

†TTR knockdown level is demonstrated through serum TTR reduction. 1

‡Bars indicate 95% confidence intervals. 23

CI=confidence interval; hATTR=hereditary ATTR; TTR=transthyretin; wtATTR=wild-type ATTR.

AMVUTTRA achieves sustained knockdown of TTR with a subcutaneous injection 4 times per year.1

Treatment with AMVUTTRA led to rapid knockdown of TTR as early as 3 weeks in HELIOS-A24*

Knockdown of TTR was sustained over 18 months24,25†‡

  • Serum TTR was evaluated in patients with hATTR-PN treated with 25 mg AMVUTTRA via subcutaneous injection once every 3 months1
  • With AMVUTTRA, similar rapid knockdown in serum TTR was observed regardless of V30M variant status, previous TTR stabilizer use, sex, age, weight, or race1,23

Important Safety Information

Reduced Serum Vitamin A Levels and Recommended Supplementation

AMVUTTRA treatment leads to a decrease in serum vitamin A levels.

Supplementation at the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of vitamin A is advised for patients taking AMVUTTRA. Higher doses than the RDA should not be given to try to achieve normal serum vitamin A levels during treatment with AMVUTTRA, as serum vitamin A levels do not reflect the total vitamin A in the body.

Patients should be referred to an ophthalmologist if they develop ocular symptoms suggestive of vitamin A deficiency (e.g., night blindness).

Adverse Reactions

In a study of patients with hATTR-PN, the most common adverse reactions that occurred in patients treated with AMVUTTRA were pain in extremity (15%), arthralgia (11%), dyspnea (7%), and vitamin A decreased (7%).

In a study of patients with ATTR-CM, no new safety issues were identified.

Indications

AMVUTTRA® (vutrisiran) is indicated for the treatment of the:

  • cardiomyopathy of wild-type or hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (ATTR-CM) in adults to reduce cardiovascular mortality, cardiovascular hospitalizations and urgent heart failure visits.
  • polyneuropathy of hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (hATTR-PN) in adults.
