First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 21 times
Summary
This study tests whether the drug tafamidis can safely stop or slow the progression of ATTR amyloidosis in people who have already had a heart transplant. About 25 adults who received a heart transplant at least a year ago will take tafamidis for 12 months. Researchers will measure changes in blood protein levels, nerve function, and quality of life to see if the drug helps control the disease without causing serious side effects.
