Echocardiographic Characterization of Cardiac Amyloidosis: an Observational Study
This is a mono-center observational ambispective study in which patients with cardiac amyloidosis evaluated at our institution will be enrolled. The primary aim is to investigate echocardiographic findings, particularly using advanced echocardiographic techniques, such as two- and three-dimensional speckle-tracking analysis, that may be helpful in the differential diagnosis between cardiac …
Screening for AL Amyloidosis in Smoldering Multiple Myeloma
In this multicenter study, we will recruit 400 patients 40 years of age or older at 15 centers with a diagnosis of smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), a group of patients for whom standard of care is observation not treatment. The main goal of this study is to screen for the …
Rapid DFLC Response Predict CHR in AL Amyloidosis
Light chain amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis) is a rare plasma cell dyscrasia characterized by the deposition of insoluble amyloid fibrils in multiple organ systems. The treatment of amyloidosis primarily relies on anti-plasma cell therapy and supportive care. The application of anti-plasma cell therapy has significantly improved outcomes in patients with AL …
[18F]Florbetazine ([18F]92) for Beta Amyloid PET Imaging in Alzheimer's Disease
[18F]Florbetazine ([18F]92) is a molecularly targeted imaging agent for Aβ protein with a novel diaryl-azine scaffold. It has shown specific binding affinity to Aβ aggregates in postmortem human AD brains and excellent brain pharmacokinetic properties with little non-specific retention in white matter in animal studies and a limited number of …
Hybrid Florbetaben PET/MRI for Imaging of Cardiac Amyloidosis
Exploration of prognostic parameters in 18F-Florbetaben PET/MRI in patients with cardiac amyloidosis. The clinical endpoints are defined as occurence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in amyloidosis patients. Additionally, MACE outcome stratified by PET parameters will be evaluated and individual parameters of the imaging techniques will be compared to each …
The Impact of Systemic Light Chain Amyloidosis on Eyes
Study Purpose and Principle: Amyloidosis is a group of diseases characterized by the deposition of amyloid proteins in tissues and organs throughout the body, with common affected organs including kidneys, heart, nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and liver. Nowadays, nearly 40 different proteins have been found to form amyloid fibrils in …
Screening for Anti-amyloid Treatment Eligibility Using Digital Cognition and Blood-based Biomarkers
This study evaluates a diagnostic screening solution for Alzheimer's disease (AD) using digital cognitive assessments and blood-based biomarkers. The aim is to reduce time-to-treatment for patients who may benefit from disease-modifying therapy (DMT). The study involves 500 patients referred to the MoCA Clinic in Montreal. Clinical stages will be assessed …
Physiologic Assessment of Microvascular Function in Patients With Cardiac Amyloidosis
The aim of the study is to evaluate coronary flow reserve (CFR), index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR), and proportion of overt microvascular disease, defined as depressed CFR as well as elevated IMR in patients with cardiac amyloidosis. The second objective of this study is to compare results of non-invasive test …
New Biomarkers and Plasma Prothrombotic Potential in Cardiac Transthyretin Amyloidosis
The development of cardiac amyloidosis is caused by the deposition of misfolded, insoluble proteins in the extracellular matrix of tissues. An important element of the clinical picture of the disease is the increased risk of thromboembolic complications, independent of the occurrence of atrial fibrillation, and the presence of intracardiac thrombi. …
Validation of an Alzheimer's Disease Marker by Fecal Assay of Amyloid Peptides and Tau Proteins
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia in humans, currently affecting almost one million people in France. It results from an irreversible degeneration of neurons responsible for a progressive decline in the main cognitive and memory functions due to a cerebral accumulation of plaques containing fibrillary amyloid peptide …
