1 · What the graph read from it

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: This multicenter open-label single-arm 2-part prospective Phase 3 trial (NCT04622046) evaluated the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of acoramidis, an oral, highly selective transthyretin (TTR) stabilizer, in Japanese patients with wild-type or hereditary symptomatic transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). Methods and Results: Twenty-five patients (mean [±SD] age 76.5±6.3 years; 88% men) received acoramidis hydrochloride (800 mg twice daily) for up to 30 months. Primary endpoints were change from baseline to Month 12 in the 6-min walk distance (6MWD) and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular-related hospitalizations over 30 months. No deaths were reported over 30 months. The annualized frequency of cardiovascular-related hospitalizations was 0.133. Clinically meaningful treatment benefits were observed in least-squares mean change from baseline to Month 12 for 6MWD (-3.9 m; 95% confidence interval [CI] -22.9, 15.1 m) and to Month 30 for 6MWD (-36.2 m; 95% CI -58.5 to -13.9 m), Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire overall score (-7.0; 95% CI -14.7, 0.8), TTR levels (9.4 mg/dL; 95% CI 6.7, 12.0 mg/dL), and median N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide levels (169.5 pg/mL; interquartile range -557.0, 700.0 pg/mL). The median TTR stabilization (fluorescent probe exclusion assay) was 95.6%. Acoramidis was well tolerated. Conclusions: Acoramidis prolongs survival, provides functional and quality-of-life benefits, and is well tolerated in Japanese patients with ATTR-CM, consistent with results from the global ATTRibute-CM Phase 3 trial.
