Brief Summary:
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of eplontersen after administration for 65 weeks to patients with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloid polyneuropathy (hATTR-PN), as compared to the NEURO-TTR trial (NCT01737398). For more information, please visit http://www.neuro-ttransform.com/.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Hereditary Transthyretin-Mediated Amyloid Polyneuropathy Drug: Eplontersen Drug: Inotersen Phase 3

Detailed Description:
This is a multicenter, open-label study in up to 140 participants, who will be randomized to receive subcutaneous (SC) injections of either eplontersen once every 4 weeks or inotersen once a week. Participants will also receive daily supplemental doses of the recommended daily allowance of vitamin A. Participants included in the inotersen reference arm will be crossed over to eplontersen at Week 37 after completing the Week 35 assessments.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from baseline in mNIS+7 at Week 66 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 66 ]
    The mNIS+7 composite score is a measure of neurologic impairment that evaluates muscle weakness, sensation, reflexes, nerve conduction, and autonomic function. The mNIS+7 composite score has a range of -22.32 to 346.32, and a higher score indicates lower function.

  2. Change from baseline in the Norfolk Quality of Life Diabetic Neuropathy (QoL-DN) Questionnaire at Week 66 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 66 ]
    The Norfolk QoL-DN score is a measure of physical function/large fiber neuropathy, symptoms, activities of daily living, small fiber neuropathy, and autonomic neuropathy. The Norfolk QoL-DN total score has a range of -4 to 136, and a higher score indicates poorer quality of life.

  3. Percent change from baseline in serum TTR concentration at Week 66 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 66 ]
  4. Percent change from baseline in serum transthyretin (TTR) concentration at Week 35 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 35 ]
  5. Change from baseline in modified neuropathy impairment score plus 7 (mNIS+7) at Week 35 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 35 ]
    The mNIS+7 composite score is a measure of neurologic impairment that evaluates muscle weakness, sensation, reflexes, nerve conduction, and autonomic function. The mNIS+7 Composite Score has a range of -22.32 to 346.32, and a higher score indicates lower function.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from baseline in Norfolk QOL-DN at Week 35 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 35 ]
    The Norfolk QoL-DN score is a measure of physical function/large fiber neuropathy, symptoms, activities of daily living, small fiber neuropathy, and autonomic neuropathy. The Norfolk QoL-DN total score has a range of -4 to 136, and a higher score indicates poorer quality of life.

  2. Change from baseline in Neuropathy Symptom and Change (NSC) score at Weeks 35 and 66 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 35, Week 66 ]
    NSC score is a questionnaire composed of 38 questions that assess the presence and severity of these neuropathy symptoms (including weakness, loss of temperature and pain sensation, and manifestations associated with autonomic nervous system dysfunction).

  3. Change from baseline in the Physical Component Summary (PCS) score of the 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) at Week 65 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 65 ]
    The SF-36 is composed of 8 multi-item scales (35 items) assessing physical function (10 items), role limitations due to physical health problems (4 items), bodily pain (2 items), general health (5 items), vitality (4 items), social functioning (2 items), role limitations due to emotional problems (3 items) and emotional well-being (5 items). Each of the 8 scales is scored from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better health. The 8 scales can be aggregated into a PCS score, which is also scaled from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better health.

  4. Change from baseline in Polyneuropathy Disability (PND) score at Week 65 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 65 ]
    The PND is a 6-stage scoring system: Stage 0: no impairment; Stage 1: sensory disturbances but preserved walking capabilities; Stage 2: impaired walking capacity, but ability to walk without a stick or crutches; Stage 3A/B: walking with help of 1 or 2 sticks or crutches; Stage 4: confined to wheel chair or bedridden.

  5. Change from baseline in modified body mass index (mBMI) at Week 65 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 65 ]
    mBMI is defined as body mass index in kilograms per square meter (kg/m^2) multiplied by serum albumin in grams per liter (g/L).

  2. Karnofsky performance status ≤ 50
  3. Other causes of sensorimotor or autonomic neuropathy (e.g., autoimmune disease), including uncontrolled diabetes
  4. Prior liver transplant or anticipated liver transplant within 1-yr of Screening
  5. New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification of ≥ 3
  6. Acute coronary syndrome within 6 months of screening or major surgery within 3 months of Screening
  7. Other types of amyloidosis
  8. Have any other conditions, which, in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor would make the subject unsuitable for inclusion, or could interfere with the subject participating in or completing the Study
  9. Current treatment with any approved drug for hereditary TTR amyloidosis such as Vyndaqel® / Vyndamax™ (tafamidis), Tegsedi™ (inotersen), Onpattro™ (patisiran), off-label use of diflunisal or doxycycline, and tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA). If previously treated with Vyndaqel® / Vyndamax™, diflunisal or doxycycline, and TUDCA, must have discontinued treatment for at least 2 weeks prior to Study Day 1
  10. Previous treatment with Tegsedi™ (Inotersen) or Onpattro™ (patisiran), or other oligonucleotide or RNA therapeutic (including siRNA)
