Patient Case Study 2008: 48 year old female with bilateral burning foot pain, numbness, progresses within 6 months to knees, and hands (predominantly ulnar distribution) Mild distal weakness, Glove-stocking deficit, absent ankle jerks Sensory>motor PN of axonal type, mild active denervation Family Hx: father died age 42 after 3 yr hx of sporadic amyloidosis (renal and PN); Confirmed V71A TTR mutation 2009: Ambulation limited by pain and imbalance, using cane hydromorphone, pregabalin gabapentin, Diflunisal Nausea/vomiting: improved with domperidone

Patient Case Study 2010: Ambulation limited to ½ block; loss of knee jerks; increased arm numbness Hydromorphone, duloxetine 2011: Increasing distal leg weakness, occasional walker 2014: Left followed by right visual loss: vitreous amyloid, successful vitrectomy 2015-2017: Apollo trial Pain improves, minimal GI sxs, improved endurance

Patient Case Study 2017-2018: Patisiran Open Label Extension study (OLE) Improved strength hands, resumed painting Dictus brace, cane, wheelchair outside Numbness stable, no dysesthesias Decreased dose of hydromorphone, duloxitine Less autonomic, no further V/D/bloating, mild Nausea Normal Echo and EKG

What is amyloidosis? The amyloidoses are a group of diseases that result from the abnormal deposition of amyloid protein in various tissues of the body causing clinically relevant changes 1,2 Amyloidosis Localized amyloidosis Systemic amyloidosis Primary (AL) amyloidosis Secondary (AA) amyloidosis Senile systemic amyloidosis (wild-type) Transthyretin familial amyloid polyneuropathy Affected organs: Kidney Heart Liver GI system Nervous system Affected organs: Kidneys Liver Spleen Affected organ: Heart Affected organs: Nervous system Heart 1.

Transthyretin is a transport protein of thyroxine and retinol-binding protein (RBP)/vitamin A 1 3 BLOOD VESSEL The transthyretin tetramer transports retinol through the RBP, vitamin A complex and thyroxine Less than 1% of transthyretin tetramers transport thyroxine in human serum The bulk of thyroxine is carried by thyroxine-binding globulin and albumin The majority of circulating transthyretin is not bound 3 TTR RBP Thyroxine 1.

Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy (hattr Amyloidosis) SummaryanTreatment Rare and fatal neurodegenerative disease Mutation results in Tetramer destabilization, protein misfolding and amyloid deposits AD with variable penetrance Wide range age of onset Painful sensory > motor, autonomic peripheral neuropathy, CTS Often cardiac conduction/cardiomyopathy Need to think of it to dx and find it! Limited current Tx options available but novel ones on horizon
