Inclusion criteria

1. Medical history of heart failure (HF) with: 1. At least 1 episode with clinical evidence of HF (without hospitalization) by signs or symptoms of volume overload or elevated intracardiac pressures that required/requires treatment with a diuretic for improvement; OR 2. 1 prior hospitalization for HF. 2. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \>40%. 3. End-diastolic interventricular septal wall thickness (IVST) ≥12 mm. 4. Willing and able to undergo scintigraphy.

Exclusion criteria

1. Diagnosis of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) (EF ≤40%). 2. Prior clinical history of myocardial infarction, CABG or multi-vessel obstructive coronary disease (\>50% stenosis of ≥2 epicardial coronary arteries). 3. Presence or history of any severe valvular heart disease (obstructive or regurgitant). 4.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Global Prevalence of ATTR-CM in HFpEF Participants Clinically At-Risk of Disease Among Total Evaluable ParticipantsDay 1Global prevalence of ATTR-CM in HFpEF participants was obtained by dividing the number of participants who were diagnosed with ATTR-CM in the study by the total number of HFpEF participants evaluated. Diagnosis of ATTR-CM was defined as: cardiac scintigraphy Grade 1, with confirmation of ATTR by cardiac biopsy; or cardiac scintigraphy Grade 2 or above. Exact 95% confidence intervals for the prevalence estimates were calculated using the method of Clopper and Pearson.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Global Prevalence of ATTR-CM in Participants With HFpEF Clinically At-Risk of Disease by Subgroups (Regions, Age, Gender) Among Total Evaluable ParticipantsDay 1The prevalence of ATTR-CM in HFpEF participants was evaluated for subgroups including regions (North America, Europe, and Asia), age categories (60-64 years, 65-69 years, 70-74 years, 75-79 years, 80-85 years, 85-89 years, \>=90 years), and gender (male, female). The estimate of prevalence was defined as the number of participants meeting the diagnosis criteria of ATTR-CM divided by the number of evaluable participants in the study in the given subgroup category. Diagnosis of ATTR-CM was defined as: cardiac scintigraphy Grade 1, with confirmation of ATTR by cardiac biopsy; or cardiac scintigraphy Grade 2 or above.

Outcome results

Primary

Global Prevalence of ATTR-CM in HFpEF Participants Clinically At-Risk of Disease Among Total Evaluable Participants

Global prevalence of ATTR-CM in HFpEF participants was obtained by dividing the number of participants who were diagnosed with ATTR-CM in the study by the total number of HFpEF participants evaluated. Diagnosis of ATTR-CM was defined as: cardiac scintigraphy Grade 1, with confirmation of ATTR by cardiac biopsy; or cardiac scintigraphy Grade 2 or above. Exact 95% confidence intervals for the prevalence estimates were calculated using the method of Clopper and Pearson.

Time frame: Day 1

Population: Evaluable analysis set included all participants who met the inclusion/exclusion criteria and completed Visit 1, excluding participants with cardiac scintigraphy assessed as non-evaluable.
