A study of coramitug compared to placebo for people with heart failure caused by transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy

3 1

What is this study about?

This research study is looking at a condition called transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy, which is a disease where an abnormal protein called transthyretin builds up in the heart muscle and causes it to become stiff and not work properly. This buildup leads to heart failure, which means the heart cannot pump blood as well as it should, causing symptoms like shortness of breath, swelling in the legs, and tiredness. The disease can occur in two forms: one where the transthyretin protein is normal but still forms harmful deposits, and another where the protein has a genetic change that makes it more likely to form these deposits. The study will test a new medicine called coramitug, which is also known by its code name NNC6019-0001. This medicine is designed to target and remove the misfolded transthyretin protein that has built up in the heart. Participants in the study will receive either coramitug or placebo, both given in addition to their standard heart failure treatments.

The main goal of the study is to see if coramitug works better than placebo at reducing serious heart-related problems and deaths in people with this condition. During the study, participants will receive the study medicine through an intravenous infusion, which means it will be given directly into a vein. The treatment will continue for up to 192 weeks, which is about three and a half years. Throughout this time, doctors will monitor how well participants’ hearts are working, how far they can walk in six minutes, and how they feel in their daily lives using questionnaires about their symptoms and quality of life. The study will also track important events such as hospital visits for heart problems, worsening of heart failure requiring urgent medical care, and deaths related to heart and blood vessel problems.

To be eligible for this study, participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy, which can be proven either through a heart tissue sample showing the abnormal protein deposits or through special imaging scans combined with other tests. They must have ongoing heart failure that requires treatment with water pills and must have either been hospitalized for heart failure at least once or have had clear signs of fluid buildup or heart pressure problems. Participants need to be on stable heart medications for at least four weeks before starting the study treatment, and they must have certain levels of a substance in their blood called NT-proBNP, which is a marker that shows how much strain the heart is under. They also need to be able to walk more than 50 meters during a walking test at the beginning of the study.

1 Initial enrollment and baseline assessments

At the start of the clinical trial, your current heart-related medications will be reviewed. Your treatment plan should remain stable for at least 4 weeks before beginning the study medication. This means no major changes to your medications, except for water pills (diuretics), which may be adjusted as needed.

Several tests will be performed to establish your baseline health status. These include an echocardiography (an ultrasound of your heart) to measure the thickness of your heart walls, and a 6-minute walk test where you will be asked to walk as far as you can in 6 minutes.

A blood test will measure your NT-proBNP level, which is a substance in your blood that indicates how well your heart is functioning. This test helps determine if you are eligible to continue in the trial.

2 Randomization and treatment assignment

You will be randomly assigned to receive either the study medication coramitug (NNC6019-0001) or a placebo (an inactive substance that looks like the study medication but contains no active ingredients).

Neither you nor your study doctor will know which treatment you are receiving. This is done to ensure the results are unbiased.

The assigned treatment will be given in addition to your current standard of care medications for heart failure.

3 Study medication administration

The study medication, coramitug, or placebo will be given as an intravenous infusion (through a vein in your arm).

The medication comes in a liquid form and will be administered at the study site during scheduled visits.

The specific dosage, frequency of administration, and total duration of treatment will be determined by the study protocol and explained to you by the study team at the site.

4 Regular monitoring visits

Throughout the trial, you will attend regular scheduled visits at the study site for monitoring and assessments.

During these visits, your heart function, symptoms, and overall health will be evaluated through various tests and questionnaires.

Blood tests will be performed to monitor your kidney function, measured by eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate), which indicates how well your kidneys are filtering waste from your blood.

You will complete the KCCQ (Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire), which asks about how your heart condition affects your daily activities and quality of life.

The 6-minute walk test will be repeated periodically to measure changes in your physical ability to walk.

5 Ongoing safety monitoring

Throughout the study, any health changes, side effects, or medical events will be carefully recorded.

If you experience worsening heart failure symptoms requiring hospital admission or urgent medical attention, these events will be documented as part of the study outcomes.

Your kidney function will be monitored regularly to detect any significant changes in how your kidneys are working.

Any serious health events, including heart-related hospitalizations or deaths, will be tracked as part of the study’s safety and effectiveness evaluation.

6 End of treatment period

The trial is expected to continue until approximately July 2028, though your individual participation duration may vary.

At the end of your treatment period, final assessments will be performed, including heart function tests, blood tests, and questionnaires.

Your study doctor will discuss the next steps for your ongoing care after the trial concludes.

Who Can Join the Study?

  • You can be male or female.
  • You must be 18 years of age or older at the time you sign the consent form.
  • You must have a confirmed diagnosis of ATTR-CM, which is a condition where an abnormal protein called transthyretin builds up in the heart muscle. This diagnosis must include evidence of protein deposits in the heart, thickening of the heart wall, and heart failure, which means your heart does not pump blood as well as it should.
  • The protein deposits in your heart must be proven by one of these methods: a heart tissue sample showing the abnormal protein, or a special heart scan showing significant uptake of a radioactive tracer combined with either a tissue sample from another part of your body showing the protein or normal blood and urine tests that rule out other similar conditions.
  • Your heart wall must be thickened, specifically the wall between the two lower chambers of your heart must be 12 millimeters or more thick, as measured by an echocardiogram, which is an ultrasound of the heart.
  • You must have ongoing heart failure that requires treatment with a loop diuretic, which is a type of water pill that helps remove excess fluid from your body, and you must have either been hospitalized at least once for heart failure or have a history of symptoms such as swelling, shortness of breath, or fluid in the lungs.
  • Your heart medications must have been stable for 4 weeks before joining the study, meaning no major changes in the types of medicines or doses greater than 50 percent, except for water pills which can be adjusted.
  • Your blood test for NT-proBNP, which is a marker that shows how much strain your heart is under, must be at or above a certain level at the screening visit.
  • You must be able to walk more than 50 meters during a timed walking test at the screening visit.

Trial locations

NNC6019-0001 is an investigational medication being studied for the treatment of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy, a condition where abnormal protein deposits build up in the heart muscle. This medication is being tested to see if it can reduce heart-related deaths and complications when added to standard care treatments. In this trial, it is being compared to a placebo to determine if it provides better protection for the heart and improves outcomes for patients with this condition.

Investigated diseases:

Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy – Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy is a heart condition caused by the buildup of abnormal protein deposits called amyloid in the heart muscle. These protein deposits are made of transthyretin, a protein normally produced by the liver. The disease can occur in two forms: one caused by a genetic mutation in the transthyretin gene (variant form) and another that occurs without any genetic mutation (wild-type form). As amyloid deposits accumulate in the heart walls, the heart becomes stiff and thick, making it difficult to pump blood effectively. This leads to heart failure symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling in the legs and ankles. The condition progressively worsens over time as more amyloid builds up in the heart tissue.
