Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Patisiran in Patients with hATTR Amyloidosis and with Polyneuropathy After Liver Transplantation.
Article in Clinical pharmacokinetics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03862807 (An Open-label Study to Evaluate Safety, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveVariants of the transthyretin (TTR) gene cause hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis, or ATTRv amyloidosis (v for variant), which results from deposition of misfolded TTR protein as amyloid in organs and tissues. Patisiran is an RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutic that suppresses the hepatic production of TTR protein. Patisiran improves multiple clinical manifestations of hATTR amyloidosis in patients without liver transplantation (LT). Because the liver is the predominant source of circulating TTR, LT has been prescribed to eliminate the production of the variant TTR. However, the continued production of wild-type TTR can contribute to disease progression after LT. Patisiran could potentially address an unmet need in these affected patients. This clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of patisiran in patients with hATTR amyloidosis with polyneuropathy progression after LT. In this paper, we describe the PK/PD of patisiran in post-LT patients and compare it with prior patisiran studies in healthy subjects and patients without LT.
methodsIn an open-label study, patients (N = 23) with hATTR amyloidosis with polyneuropathy progression after LT received 0.3 mg/kg patisiran intravenously every 3 weeks (q3w) for 12 months. As a post hoc analysis, the PK and PD results from the current study were compared with prior patisiran studies in healthy volunteers from a Phase 1 study and in patients with hATTR amyloidosis without LT from Phase 2 and 3 studies.
resultsThe PK profile of patisiran siRNA (ALN-18328) and its 2 lipid excipients, DLin-MC3-DMA and PEG2000-C-DMG, in hATTR amyloidosis patients after LT was consistent with prior patisiran studies in non-LT subjects. Plasma PK profiles of ALN-18328 and DLin-MC3-DMA exhibited 2 phases, the first characterized by a short distribution half-life and the second by a minor peak and relatively long elimination half-life. The plasma concentrations of PEG
conclusionsThe consistency of patisiran PK and PD between patients with and without LT suggests that neither LT nor concomitantly administered immunosuppressants influence hepatic uptake or RNAi activity of patisiran. The patisiran dosing regimen of 0.3 mg/kg q3w is appropriate for hATTR amyloidosis patients with or without LT. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NO: NCT03862807.
