Prognostic Value of N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide and High-Sensitivity Troponin T Levels in the Natural History of Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy and Their Evolution after Tafamidis Treatment

Abstract

ATTR-CA patients with increasing NT-proBNP had an increased risk of EFS. Tafamidis stabilize NT-proBNP and cTnT-HS increasing, even if initial NT-proBNP levels were >3000 ng/L. Thus suggesting that all patients, irrespective of baseline NT-proBNP levels, may benefit from tafamidis.
