The treatment of amyloidosis is being refined.

The therapy of transthyretin (TTR)-related cardiac amyloidosis consists, on the one hand, of the prevention and management of complications (supportive therapy) and on the other of treatments aimed at interrupting or slowing down the production and deposition of fibrils (disease-modifying therapy). This definition includes drugs that act on different phases of amyloidogenesis: (i) silencing of the gene encoding TTR (small interfering RNA: patisiran, vutrisiran; antisense oligonucleotides: inotersen, eplontersen; new CRISPR Cas-9 drug technology for editing in vivo DNA); (ii) stabilization of circulating TTR to inhibit its dissociation and subsequent assembly of the resulting monomers in amyloidotic fibrils (tafamidis, acoramidis, and tolcapone); (iii) destruction and re-absorption of already formed amyloid tissue deposits. Drugs related to the latter strategy (antibodies) are still the subject of Phase 1 or 2 studies.
