PHAR’s Sheila Reiss Reddy, PhD, RPh, Eunice Chang, PhD, and Marian Tarbox, MPP, in collaboration with investigators at Akcea Therapeutics, Inc., conducted two studies investigating cardiovascular complications associated with transthyretin-mediated (ATTR) amyloidosis. Their first study analyzed a large US insurance claims database to identify patients with ATTR amyloidosis and cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and to estimate the US prevalence and incidence of ATTR-CM. Their second study examined cardiovascular symptom manifestation and healthcare use leading up to an ATTR diagnosis among Medicare beneficiaries in the US. Their findings were presented as posters at American College of Cardiology’s 70th Annual Scientific Session & Expo and can be found on the PHAR publications page, and published as abstracts in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology‘s May 2021 supplement issue.
