NCT ID NCT05023889

Summary

This small, early-phase study is testing whether the drug patisiran can help control nerve damage in people with wild-type ATTR amyloidosis, a rare condition where abnormal proteins build up in the body. Ten participants with nerve symptoms will receive patisiran infusions every three weeks for two years. Researchers will measure changes in nerve function, symptoms like dizziness and digestive issues, and overall quality of life.
