The Effect Of Tafamidis Meglumine In Transthyretin Amyloid Polyneuropathy Patients

A SINGLE ARM, MULTICENTER, OPEN-LABEL STUDY TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY, SAFETY, TOLERABILITY, AND PHARMACODYNAMICS OF ORALLY ADMINISTERED TAFAMIDIS MEGLUMINE IN TRANSTHYRETIN AMYLOID POLYNEUROPATHY PARTICIPANTS IN CHINA

This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability as well as pharmacodynamics of tafamidis meglumine in ATTR-PN participants in China.

Approximately 10-15 participants are planned to be enrolled. All enrolled participants will receive oral tafamidis meglumine 20 mg soft capsules once daily for 72 weeks (18 months).

This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability as well as pharmacodynamics of tafamidis meglumine in ATTR-PN participants in China.

All enrolled participants will receive oral tafamidis meglumine 20 mg soft capsules once daily starting on Day 1. Clinical visits will be scheduled at Baseline (Day 1) and at Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 24, Week 36, Week 48, Week 60 and Week 72. At Week 36 and Week 60 site visit, assessment of adverse events, safety related lab testings, concomitant medications and investigational product compliance will be scheduled. Every 6 weeks (do not exceed 7 weeks since last confirmation) telephone contacts will be made during visits in which no investigative site visits are scheduled for assessment of adverse events, concomitant medications and investigational product compliance (between Week 12 and 24, between Week 24 and 36, between Week 36 and 48, between Week 48 and 60, and between Week 60 and 72).
