AI-written from the registry record, not the study's own wording. May contain errors or omissions. Check the registry text on this page and the original record ↗ before acting on it.
This is a prospective observational registry that follows adults diagnosed with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), whether symptomatic or not. It records clinical presentation, imaging findings, treatments, and outcomes over time. The registry seeks to describe the disease course and patterns of care in Thailand.
What it is studying. The study aims to describe the natural history, clinical features, and imaging characteristics of ATTR-CM in Thailand, and to record outcomes such as death and heart-failure hospitalization and the use and adverse effects of ATTR medications.
What the researchers hope to learn. To improve understanding of ATTR-CM in Thailand by documenting its natural history, clinical and imaging features, treatment use and adverse effects, and outcomes; to inform early screening efforts, raise awareness among non-cardiologists, and support epidemiological studies.
What this study is about
The study's own summary, as published on ClinicalTrials.gov. Underlined terms have a short explanation.
The investigators of this registry aim to study the natural history, clinical presentation, characteristics, and imaging findings of patients diagnosed with ATTR amyloidosis in Thailand longitudinally. This will enable the investigators to study this disease in depth. With a better understanding, the investigators can aim to develop early screening programs for at-risk patients, raising awareness among non-cardiologists. As amyloid-specific therapies have now become available in Thailand, the findings of this registry can be helpful for epidemiological studies in Thailand.

- Abnormalities on CMR (Cardiac MRI) [Subendocardium LGE (late gadolinium enhancement) and/or elevated native T1 value and/or increased extracellular volume (ECV > 0.4)] with positive non-cardiac and/or cardiac tissue biopsy confirmed by Congo red stain
Exclusion criteria
- Diagnosed with amyloidosis caused by proteins other than transthyretin (light chain Amyloidosis, etc.)
- Diagnosed with secondary amyloidosis

AI-written from the registry record, not the study's own wording. May contain errors or omissions. Check the registry text on this page and the original record ↗ before acting on it.
This is an observational registry with no study treatment: investigators will collect and follow clinical information and test results over time. Collected data may include medical history, hospitalizations, deaths, use of ATTR medications and their adverse effects, and existing imaging or biopsy results (echocardiogram, cardiac MRI, nuclear scintigraphy, tissue biopsy) performed as part of routine care. The registry record does not specify a required visit schedule or whether the study will perform new biopsies or imaging.
How the study is structured. A prospective observational registry: no experimental treatment is assigned. Participants are followed over time and clinical data, imaging results, treatments, and outcomes are collected (primary outcomes measured over a 3-year timeframe).
Questions you could ask
These questions are suggestions for a conversation with the study team or your own clinician, not advice.
- The registry lists this study under Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). Does it apply to my diagnosis?
- This is an observational study, so the study itself gives no treatment. What would taking part involve for me, and would it change my usual care?
- The listed sites are in Thailand. Is any of them reachable for me, and does the study help with travel?
- Which of the eligibility criteria would need to be checked with tests before I could join?

Terms used on this page · explanations by MedicalUpdates.ai
- registry
- An organised collection of information about people with a particular condition, gathered over time for research. Joining a registry usually means sharing medical information, not receiving a treatment.
- natural history
- A study that follows how a condition changes over time without assigning an experimental treatment. It may involve study visits and tests, and is often used to plan future trials.
- echocardiogram
- An ultrasound scan of the heart. A transesophageal echocardiogram is done through a probe passed into the food pipe for a closer view.
- biopsy
- Removal of a small piece of tissue so it can be examined under a microscope. 'Biopsy-proven' or 'histologically confirmed' means the diagnosis was confirmed by examining tissue under a microscope.
- MRI
- A scan that uses magnets and radio waves, not X-rays, to make detailed pictures of the inside of the body. Some implants and metal objects mean a person cannot have one.
- Inclusion Criteria
- The conditions a person must meet to be considered for the study, for example a confirmed diagnosis, an age range or a test result.
- Exclusion Criteria
- The conditions that rule a person out even if they meet the inclusion criteria, for example other illnesses, certain medicines or pregnancy.
