hATTR, hereditary transthyretin; mNIS + 7, modified Neuropathy Impairment Score plus seven neurophysiological tests composite score; Norfolk QOL‐DN, Norfolk Quality of Life – Diabetic Neuropathy questionnaire total score; OLE, open‐label extension; PN, polyneuropathy; PND, polyneuropathy disability; TTR, transthyretin;
Polyneuropathy disability score is defined as: I, sensory disturbances in limbs without motor impairment; II, difficulty walking without the need of a walking aid; III, one stick or one crutch required for walking; IV, two sticks or two crutches needed; V, wheelchair required or patient confined to bed;
based on data entered in the electronic case report form at NEURO‐TTR study entry;
prior stabilizer use includes tafamidis and/or diflunisal;
NEURO‐TTR baseline mNIS + 7 based on 81 inotersen‐inotersen patients and 50 placebo‐inotersen;
open‐label extension baseline mNIS + 7 based on 80 inotersen‐inotersen patients and 49 placebo‐inotersen;
NEURO‐TTR baseline Norfolk QOL‐DN based on 80 inotersen‐inotersen patients and 50 placebo‐inotersen;
open‐label extension baseline Norfolk QOL‐DN based on 78 inotersen‐inotersen patients and 49 placebo‐inotersen;
based on NEURO‐TTR study entry; the presence of cardiomyopathy was defined as a diagnosis of hATTR amyloidosis cardiomyopathy at trial entry or by the following criteria: an interventricular wall thickness of 13 mm or more on transthoracic echocardiogram at baseline, as ascertained by a central reader, and no known history of persistent hypertension (systolic blood pressure, ≥150 mm Hg) within 12 months before screening;
based on 28 inotersen‐inotersen patients and 16 placebo‐inotersen patients.
Figure 2Open‐label extension (OLE) median serum transthyretin (TTR) levels relative to the NEURO‐TTR baseline. Data shown are for all enrolled patients who received ≥1 dose of inotersen in the OLE and had ≥1 post‐baseline efficacy assessment (full analysis set). Median percentage change from the NEURO‐TTR baseline is indicated using green squares for the inotersen‐inotersen group and red circles for the placebo‐inotersen group. The dashed line represents the OLE baseline (OLE week 0).
Figure 3Change from the NEURO‐TTR baseline to week 66 in mNIS + 7 and Norfolk QOL‐DN for the NEURO‐TTR safety set. Least‐squares mean (LSM) ± SE change from the NEURO‐TTR baseline in (a) the Modified Neuropathy Impairment Score plus seven neurophysiological tests composite score (mNIS + 7) and (b) the Norfolk Quality of Life – Diabetic Neuropathy (QOL‐DN) questionnaire total score. Data shown are for all patients who received ≥1 dose of study drug in NEURO‐TTR (safety set).
Figure 4Mean change from the NEURO‐TTR baseline to open‐label extension (OLE) week 104 in efficacy measures. Mean (± SE) change from the NEURO‐TTR baseline in (a) the Modified Neuropathy Impairment Score plus seven neurophysiological tests composite score (mNIS + 7); (b) the Norfolk Quality of Life – Diabetic Neuropathy (QOL‐DN) questionnaire total score; (c) the 36‐item Short‐Form Health Survey, version 2 (SF‐36) Physical Component Summary (PCS) score. Data shown are for all enrolled patients who received ≥1 dose of inotersen in the OLE and had ≥1 post‐baseline efficacy assessment (full analysis set). Green squares indicate results for the inotersen‐inotersen group and red circles indicate results for the placebo‐inotersen group. The vertical dashed line represents the OLE baseline (OLE week 0). Sample sizes for each time point and treatment group are indicated under the figure.

Shown are adverse events that occurred from the time of the first dose in the OLE to the patient’s last contact date in the OLE study as of 31 May 2018;
each patient is counted once by maximum severity of any TEAE.
