Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis - Market Insight, Epidemiology, and Market Forecast - 2034

Key Highlights

• Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis (hATTR) is a rare, genetic disease where a mutation in the transthyretin (TTR) gene causes abnormal protein deposits called amyloid to build up in various organs, most notably the nerves and heart, leading to progressive damage and symptoms like numbness, tingling, weakness, and heart problems.
• The hATTR can be further sub-divided into familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) and familial amyloid cardiomyopathy (FAC). There are over 120 different mutations in the TTR gene, and each mutation causes a different pattern of disease onset, symptoms and outlook. The most common ATTR mutations such as ATTR V30M variant, ATTR V122I variant, ATTR T60A variant, and others.
• Abdominal fat biopsy is a minimally invasive and safe procedure that can lead to the histological confirmation and typing of amyloid deposits.
• ATTR has several phenotypes including ATTR-cardiomyopathy (CM), which impacts the heart, potentially leading to heart failure, ATTR-polyneuropathy (PN), which affects the peripheral nervous system including the brain, and mixed phenotype, where patients experience symptoms of both.
• In August 2025, Prothena Corporation announced that Novo Nordisk communicated during their second quarter 2025 that they expect to advance coramitug, a potential first-in-class amyloid depleter antibody, into a Phase III program for ATTR amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) in 2025. Coramitug was initially developed by Prothena and was acquired by Novo Nordisk in July 2021.
• Currently treatment armamentarium includes the US FDA approved AMVUTTRA (vutrisiran), ONPATTRO (patisiran), TEGSEDI (inotersen), VYNDAQEL (tafamidis meglumine) and VYNDAMAX (tafamidis), WAINUA (eplontersen), and others.
• Several potential therapies are being investigated for the management of hATTR. The anticipated launch of the promising candidate like Nexiguran ziclumeran, ALXN2220, Coramitug, and others during the forecast period (2025–2034) is expected to bring about a significant shift in the market dynamics of hATTR.

Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis Understanding and Treatment Algorithm

Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis Overview

Hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis is a rare, inherited, progressively debilitating disease caused by mutations in the TTR (transthyretin) gene. These mutations lead to the misfolding of transthyretin proteins, which then accumulate as amyloid fibrils in various organs and tissues. The buildup primarily affects the peripheral nerves, heart, and sometimes the gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms vary widely but commonly include progressive peripheral neuropathy (numbness, tingling, pain), autonomic dysfunction (such as dizziness, digestive issues), and cardiomyopathy (leading to shortness of breath, fatigue, and heart failure). If left untreated, hATTR amyloidosis can lead to significant organ damage and is often fatal.

Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis Diagnosis

Diagnosing hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis can be challenging due to its diverse and often non-specific symptoms. The diagnostic process typically begins with a thorough clinical evaluation, including a family history and assessment of neuropathic and cardiac symptoms. Genetic testing is essential to confirm mutations in the TTR gene, distinguishing hATTR from other forms of amyloidosis. Tissue biopsy with Congo red staining may be used to confirm amyloid deposits, while imaging techniques like echocardiography, cardiac MRI, or nuclear scintigraphy (e.g., Tc-99m-PYP scan) help evaluate cardiac involvement. Blood and urine tests, along with nerve conduction studies, support the diagnosis, and serum/urine immunofixation is used to rule out light-chain (AL) amyloidosis. Early and accurate diagnosis is critical for timely treatment and improved outcomes.

Further details related to diagnosis will be provided in the report…

Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis Treatment

Treatment of hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis focuses on reducing the production or effects of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) protein to slow disease progression and manage symptoms. TTR silencers like patisiran (siRNA) and inotersen or eplontersen (antisense oligonucleotides) reduce TTR protein production in the liver, while tafamidis, a TTR stabilizer, prevents the protein from misfolding. Investigational therapies such as CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing (e.g., nexiguran ziclumeran) aim to permanently inactivate the TTR gene. For patients with advanced cardiac or neurological symptoms, supportive care including pain management, cardiac medications, and mobility support is essential. Early initiation of therapy is crucial to preserving organ function and improving quality of life.

Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis Epidemiology

The hATTR epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by the total prevalent cases of hATTR, total diagnosed prevalent cases of hATTR, type-specific cases of hATTR, stage-specific cases of hATTR, New York Heart Association (NYHA) Classification of Familial Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (FAC) in the 7MM market covering the United States, EU4 (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan from 2020 to 2034.

• The US accounted for nearly 65% of the total diagnosed prevalent cases of hATTR in the 7MM in 2024, which is expected to increase further by 2034.
• In the United States, the most common variants of hATTR include TTR V30M, TTR T60A, TTR L58H, TTR S77Y, and TTR I84S.
• Around 45% of hATTR cases in the US were specific to familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP).
• Hereditary ATTR affects males and females usually with no significant gender prevalence, yet the parent-of-origin effect in carriers is hypothesized because maternal inheritance of the mutation seems to be related to a higher risk of disease. However, in families with late-onset disease, a male predominance.
• Annual incidence of hATTR in Europe is estimated at 0.3 new cases per million people.

Drug Class Insight

CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing

CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing is a revolutionary genome-editing technology that allows for precise, targeted changes to DNA within living cells. It works by using a guide RNA to direct the Cas9 enzyme to a specific sequence in the genome, where Cas9 makes a double-stranded break in the DNA. The cell then attempts to repair this break, often leading to gene disruption or, if a repair template is provided, gene correction or insertion. Nexiguran Ziclumeran is an investigational, in vivo CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing therapy designed to treat hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis by directly targeting the root cause of the disease. It uses a guide RNA to direct the Cas9 enzyme to the TTR gene in liver cells, where Cas9 introduces a double-stranded break in the DNA.

Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis (hATTR) Market Outlook

Treatment strategies for hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis are increasingly diverse and target various stages of the disease process. Gene silencers, such as eplontersen (WAINUA), patisiran (ONPATTRO), and inotersen (TEGSEDI), work by targeting the TTR mRNA in the liver, significantly reducing the production of both mutant and wild-type transthyretin protein. This slows disease progression by lowering circulating TTR levels. TTR stabilizers, like tafamidis (VYNDAQEL/VYNDAMAX), bind to the TTR protein and prevent it from misfolding into amyloid fibrils, thereby delaying organ damage, particularly in the heart. While there are no approved treatments specifically for degrading amyloid fibrils already deposited in tissues, this area is under investigation, and some therapies may offer indirect benefit. Liver transplantation, historically used to eliminate the primary source of mutant TTR production, is now rarely pursued due to the advent of effective pharmacologic therapies. A promising frontier is gene-editing, exemplified by Nexiguran Ziclumeran, an in vivo CRISPR-Cas9–based therapy that permanently disrupts the TTR gene in liver cells, potentially offering a one-time, curative approach. Alongside these disease-modifying therapies, symptom management and supportive care remain crucial, addressing complications like peripheral neuropathy, autonomic dysfunction, and cardiomyopathy, which are hallmarks of hATTR and contribute significantly to patient morbidity and reduced quality of life.
