NEURO-TTRansform Trial Study Design NEURO-TTRansform Trial Study Design

All patients received supplemental doses of the recommended daily allowance of vitamin A.

The external placebo control from NEURO-TTR was appropriate because of similar eligibility criteria and endpoints1,3,6

  1. *Patients included in NEURO-TTRansform were 18 to 82 years of age, and had a confirmed diagnosis of hATTR-PN as defined by all of the following: Stage 1 (ambulatory without assistance) or Stage 2 (ambulatory with assistance) familial amyloid polyneuropathy or Coutinho stage; documented mutation of the TTR gene; and signs and symptoms consistent with hATTR-PN, including NIS ≥10 and ≤130. Patients must have discontinued active treatment with any other approved drug for hATTR 2 weeks prior to study.2,3

  2. The inotersen reference group was intended to confirm sufficiently comparable disease progression and treatment response patterns between NEURO-TTR and NEURO-TTRansform trials.3

  3. All endpoints were compared with the placebo arm of the earlier NEURO-TTR trial (NCT01737398).1,2,6

  4. §The final analysis endpoints were distributed over 2 visits (Week 65 and Week 66), as prespecified in the protocol.3
