TTRACK: Prevalence and Characteristics of Transthyretin Amyloidosis in Patients With Left Ventricular Hypertrophy of Unknown Etiology
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The main purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of ATTR Cardiomyopathy among patients admitted due to Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH) >15mm of unknown etiology by using a 99mTc-tracer scintigraphy based protocol

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Number of patients with cardiac fixation at the radionuclide bone scintigraphy and/or SPECT [Baseline to 6 months]
• To assess the prevalence of patients with cardiac fixation on a radionuclide bone scintigraphy and/or Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) performed with 99mTc-DPD or 99mTc-PYP or 99mTc-HMDP* among patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) from an undiagnosed etiology
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of patients with mutation at (Transthyretin) TTR coding gene [Baseline to 6 months]
In patients diagnosed with ATTR Amyloidosis to assess the prevalence of hereditary (ATTRv) and wild-type (ATTRwt) ATTR amyloidosis
- Number of patients with familial history [Baseline to 6 months]
To assess the prevalence of patients with familial history of known cardiomyopathy (CM), polyneuropathy (PN), sudden cardiac death (SCD) among their relatives (ie, parents, siblings and 2nd/3rd degree family members)
- Number of patients with concomitant signs and symptoms of ATTR amyloidosis [Baseline to 6 months]
• To assess the prevalence in patients with cardiac fixation at the bone scintigraphy/SPECT of concomitant signs or symptoms of ATTR amyloidosis, i.e.: Senso-motor Polyneuropathy Carpal Tunnel syndrome (CTS) Autonomic dysfunction Cardiological manifestations Laboratory signs Others
- Presence of neurogical signs and/or symptoms compatible with ATTR Polyneuropathy [Baseline to 6 months]
To assess the coexistence of typical neurological signs/symptoms even when overlooked at the first evaluation.
- Description of specific TTR gene mutation if present [Baseline to 6 months]
To describe the prevalence of TTR genetic mutation** in patients with cardiac fixation at the bone scintigraphy ( visual grade 1 to 3)
- Comparison of clinical and biochemical characteristics in patients with positive scintigraphy (cardiac fixation at the bone scintigraphy grade 1, 2 or 3) and/or SPECT [Baseline to 6 months]
To compare the clinical and biochemical characteristics between patients with positive scintigraphy (cardiac fixation at the bone scintigraphy grade 1, 2 or 3) and/or SPECT
- Prevalence of AL or ATTR amyloidosis amyloidosis in patients with cardiac fixation at the bone scintigraphy (visual grade 1 to 3) and/or SPECT [Baseline to 6 months]
To assess the prevalence of AL or ATTR amyloidosis amyloidosis in patients with cardiac fixation at the bone scintigraphy (visual grade 1 to 3) and/or SPECT
