About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Observational retrosPective Registry of patIents With Transthyretin aMyloid polynEuropathy (hATTR-PN) and chRonic Idiopathic Axonal Polyneuropathy (CIAP) in the Population of the Russian Federation

A multicenter observational retrosPective Registry of patIents with transthyretin aMyloid polynEuropathy (hATTR-PN) and chRonic idiopathic axonal polyneuropathy (CIAP) in the population of the Russian Federation (PRIMER) There are no comprehensive epidemiological data on patients with hereditary ATTR-PN (hATTR-PN) and CIAP in the Russian Federation. Therefore, there is a need to conduct a large-scale observational study in the Russian population to obtain information on clinical, electrophysiological and demographic characteristics of patients with hATTR-PN and CIAP. Obtaining the study data will help to identify the patients with axonal polyneuropathy, who deserve TTR gene sequencing, and therefore to allow early treatment and potentially modify disease progression in patients.

Read the detailed description

Since the increasing number of treatments available to help slow the progression of neuropathy it is critical to timely identify and diagnose the ATTR-PN. Early identification and intervention are also crucial to improve patient outcomes because newly available treatments have been shown to have maximum therapeutic benefit when started in the early stages of the disease.

Identification of ATTRv amyloidosis with PN can be challenging, particularly in non-endemic regions, and a high level of suspicion is required to diagnose patients as early as possible.

Previously proposed suspicion index of ATTRv amyloidosis was based on disease's red flags, that is, on the presence of a progressive polyneuropathy in addition to at least one red flag symptom suggestive of multi-systemic involvement. However, sometimes the demonstration of a progressive neuropathy requires follow-up evaluations, risking wasting time. Moreover, some red flags (e.g., cardiomyopathy or vitreous opacities) need specialist evaluations that could be often lacking during the first neurological evaluation.

Patients can present with heterogeneous symptoms and variable levels of disease severity, which often leads to a misdiagnosis. Early and accurate diagnosis may also be confounded by a lack of family history and the presence of various phenotypes common to multiple disease conditions such as GI disorders. In fact, CIAP still represents a common misdiagnosis for ATTRv patients.

Study is planned to determine the principal differences between the hATTR-PN and CIAP patients and valorize them in a compound score which can help clinician through a specific cut-off to recognize patients deserving TTR genetic analysis. The application of the compound score in patients with sensory-motor neuropathy may have a major role, representing a screening tool to avoiding wasting time and therefore shortening the time to reach a correct diagnosis.

Previously reported compound score included presence of muscle weakness and CTS history as clinical parameters and amplitude of Sensory action potential (SAP), Compound muscular action potential (CMAP) of the median and ulnar nerves, CMAP of the tibial nerve as electrophysiological parameters. Electrophysiological findings in this study showed that ATTRv patients, although they had the same disease duration of CIAP patients, had a greater reduction of amplitude of potentials in all nerves with a more frequently absence of potential at lower limbs and reduction at upper limbs.

At the same time, the landscape of mutations and phenotypes of ATTR amyloidosis are very different between countries, which does not allow extrapolating the results from Italian study, and there are no comprehensive epidemiological data on patients with hATTR-PN and CIAP in the Russian Federation.

Therefore, there is a need to conduct a large-scale observational study in the Russian population to obtain information on clinical, electrophysiological and demographic characteristics of patients with hATTR-PN and CIAP. Obtaining the study data will help to identify the patients with axonal polyneuropathy, who deserve TTR gene sequencing, and therefore to allow early treatment and potentially modify disease progression in patients.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Russia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

In order to describe the baseline electrophysiological, clinical and demographic characteristics of patients with hATTR-PN and CIAP in the Russian Federation, Mean age at the hATTR-PN or CIAP diagnosis information will be collected (time frame: up to 5 months). The study lists 29 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 May 2025.
