Abstract

Aims: HELIOS-A was a Phase 3, open-label study of vutrisiran, an RNA interference therapeutic, in patients with hereditary transthyretin (ATTRv) amyloidosis with polyneuropathy. This analysis evaluated vutrisiran's impact on exploratory cardiac endpoints in HELIOS-A patients.// Methods and results: Patients were randomized 3:1 to subcutaneous vutrisiran 25 mg every 3 months or intravenous patisiran 0.3 mg/kg every 3 weeks (reference group) for 18 months. Exploratory cardiac endpoints included change from baseline in N-terminal prohormone of brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and echocardiographic parameters versus external placebo (APOLLO study). The modified intent-to-treat (mITT) population comprised randomized patients receiving any study drug (n = 122). A cardiac subpopulation with evidence of cardiac amyloid involvement (n = 40) was prespecified. ⁹⁹ᵐTc scintigraphy exploratory assessments in a planned vutrisiran-treated cohort at select sites were compared with baseline. At Month 18, vutrisiran demonstrated beneficial effects on NT-proBNP versus external placebo in the mITT and cardiac subpopulations (adjusted geometric mean fold change ratio [95% confidence interval] 0.480 [0.383–0.600], p = 9.606 × 10⁻¹⁰ and 0.491 [0.337–0.716], p = 0.0004, respectively). Benefits or trends towards benefit in echocardiographic parameters versus external placebo were observed for both populations. In ⁹⁹ᵐTc scintigraphy assessments, 32/47 (68.1%) and 31/48 (64.6%) patients exhibited reduced normalized left ventricular total uptake and heart-to-contralateral lung ratio, respectively. Perugini grade was reduced or unchanged versus baseline in 55/57 (96.5%) evaluable patients. No increase in cardiac adverse events was observed with vutrisiran versus external placebo.// Conclusions: Vutrisiran demonstrated evidence of potential benefit on cardiac manifestations in patients with ATTRv amyloidosis with polyneuropathy, with an acceptable safety profile.
