Acoramidis
/api/v1/drug/acoramidisMechanism of action
Sourced from openFDAAcoramidis is a selective stabilizer of transthyretin (TTR). Acoramidis binds TTR at thyroxine binding sites and slows dissociation of the TTR tetramer into its constituent monomers, the rate-limiting step in amyloidogenesis.
Indications
Sourced from openFDA- ATTRUBY is indicated for the treatment of the cardiomyopathy of wild-type or variant transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (ATTR-CM) in adults to reduce cardiovascular death and cardiovascular-related hospitalization.

Dosage & administration
Sourced from openFDAThe recommended dosage of ATTRUBY is 712 mg orally twice daily. ( 2.1 ) 2.1 Recommended Dosage The recommended dosage of ATTRUBY is 712 mg orally twice daily (with or without food). Swallow tablets whole; do not cut, crush, or chew.
Adverse reactions
Sourced from openFDA6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. The safety data reflect the exposure of 421 participants with ATTR-CM to ATTRUBY 712 mg (administered as two 356 mg tablets) administered orally twice daily in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 30 months fixed treatment duration. The median duration of exposure to ATTRUBY in the safety population was 29 months. There was a higher frequency of gastrointestinal (GI) adverse reactions such as diarrhea 11.6% versus 7.6% and upper abdominal pain 5.5% versus 1.4% in the ATTRUBY versus placebo group, respectively. The majority of these GI adverse reactions were categorized as mild and resolved without drug discontinuation. A similar proportion of ATTRUBY-treated and placebo-treated participants discontinued study drug because of an adverse event (9.3% and 8.5%, respectively). Laboratory Tests Increase in Serum Creatinine and Decrease in eGFR Initiation of ATTRUBY causes an increase in serum creatinine and decrease in eGFR which generally occurs within 4 weeks of starting therapy and stabilizes. In a trial of adults with ATTR-CM, a mean increase in serum creatinine of 0.2 and 0.0 mg/dL and a mean decrease in eGFR of 8.2 and 0.7 mL/min/1.73 m 2 was observed in the ATTRUBY and placebo groups, respectively, at Day 28.
Use in specific populations
Sourced from openFDA8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Available data with acoramidis use in pregnant women are insufficient to establish a drug associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproductive studies in rats and rabbits, no embryofetal abnormalities were observed at exposures up to 34 times and 13 times the clinical exposure at the maximum recommended human dose, respectively ( see Data ). The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Report pregnancies to the BridgeBio reporting line at 1-844-550-2246. Data Animal Data In pregnant rats, oral administration of acoramidis (0, 50, 350, and 1,000 mg/kg/day) throughout organogenesis did not result in any adverse effects on embryofetal development at up to 1,000 mg/kg/day, approximately 34 times the clinical exposure at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) based on AUC.
Pharmacokinetics
Sourced from openFDA- Metabolism
- The systemic exposures (C max and AUC) increase in a less than dose proportional manner following single and multiple doses of acoramidis. Over the dose range from 89 mg twice daily to 712 mg twice daily, AUC increases only 130%.
Overdosage
Sourced from openFDAThere is no clinical experience with overdose. In case of suspected overdose, treatment should be symptomatic and supportive.
