Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy-2025 Update: Current Diagnostic Approaches and Emerging Therapeutic Options.

Transthyretin-related (ATTR) amyloidosis is a progressive, multisystem disease caused by the extracellular deposition of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) monomers as insoluble amyloid fibrils. Clinical manifestations vary widely and may include cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN), or mixed phenotypes. The condition is increasingly recognized as an underdiagnosed contributor to heart failure, particularly in elderly patients. ATTR amyloidosis exists in two major forms: hereditary (ATTRv), resulting from mutations in the TTR gene, and wild-type (ATTRwt), typically affecting men over 70 years of age. Advances in disease understanding have led to a paradigm shift in management, with the introduction of targeted therapies that slow disease progression and improve prognosis. First-generation therapies such as tafamidis have demonstrated survival benefits in ATTR-CM. More recently, second-generation agents-such as the TTR stabilizer acoramidis and RNA silencers including vutrisiran and eplontersen-have shown promising efficacy in clinical trials. Additional strategies under investigation include gene editing and monoclonal antibodies targeting TTR amyloid deposits. This review outlines current diagnostic strategies and therapeutic options for ATTR amyloidosis, emphasizing the need for early detection and individualized treatment approaches. The expanding therapeutic landscape highlights the importance of accurate phenotyping and timely intervention to optimize clinical outcomes.
