Phase 3 efficacy and safety study to evaluate acoramidis (AG10) HCl 800 mg administered orally twice a day compared to placebo in subjects with symptomatic Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM).
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is an underdiagnosed condition believed to affect more than 400,000 people worldwide. In ATTR-CM, the accumulation of transthyretin (TTR) amyloid results in thickening and stiffening of the heart, which often leads to heart failure or even death. There are two forms of ATTR-CM: * Wild Type\* This form of the condition primarily develops in older individuals who do not carry gene mutations. * Hereditary\* This form of the condition comes from gene mutations passed down in families. In this study we are researching the investigational drug acoramidis HCl 800 mg administered orally twice a day. Through the study, we want to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acoramidis in patients with ATTR-CM versus placebo. This is a 30 month, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. This means that, during the 30 month study, investigators conducting the research and study participants will not know whether the study participant is receiving acoramidis or placebo. The primary outcomes of the study are: 1. The impact of acoramidis versus placebo on the change in distance walked on the 6 minute walk test (6MWT) after 12 months of treatment compared to baseline. 2. The impact of acoramidis versus placebo on the hierarchical combination of All-Cause mortality, cumulative frequency of cardiovascular-related hospitalizations, change from baseline in NT-proBNP, and change in from baseline in 6MWT over a 30-month fixed treatment duration. At the end of 30 months, participants may be eligible to receive investigational acoramidis, and there is no placebo. This is called an "open label extension." This separate study may help us better understand the safety related to taking acoramidis over a longer period of time.

A Hierarchical Combination of All-Cause Mortality, Cumulative Frequency of CV-related Hospitalization, Change From Baseline in NT-proBNP and Change From Baseline in 6MWT at the Last Available Visit Where Both Subjects Had Non-missing Assessments.
The endpoint was analyzed using Finkelstein-Schoenfeld method. The method combines all-cause mortality, cumulative frequency of CV-related hospitalizations, change from baseline in NT-proBNP and change from baseline in 6MWT in a hierarchical fashion. The method compares every participant with every other participant within strata, assigning a +1 to the "better" participant and a -1 to the "worse" participant and 0 if they are "tied". Participants who had heart transplantation or implantation of a cardiac mechanical assist device were handled in the same manner as death. 'Win' represents a participant doing better based on hierarchical comparison. The reported unit is the total percent of "wins" for each treatment group from performing such a hierarchical comparison across stratification factors in the study.
Time frame: Baseline up to Month 30
Change From Baseline to Month 30 in the Distance Walked During the 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT)
6MWT measures the total distance that a participant could walk in 6 minutes. Participants were asked to perform the test at a pace that was comfortable to them, with as many breaks as they needed.
Time frame: Month 30
Change From Baseline to Month 30 of the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Overall Score (KCCQ-OS)
KCCQ is a 23-item participant-completed questionnaire that assesses health status and health-related quality of life in participants with heart failure. Eight domain scores were calculated for the KCCQ: Physical limitation, Social limitation, Quality of life, Self-efficacy, Symptom stability, Symptom frequency, Symptom burden, and Total symptoms (calculated as the mean of Symptom frequency and Symptom burden scores). The summary score of Overall Summary (calculated as mean of Physical limitation, Social limitation, Total symptoms, and Quality of life scores) was calculated. Domain and summary scores were scaled to range from 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum); higher scores represent better health status.

Change From Baseline to Month 30 in Serum TTR (Prealbumin) Level
Serum TTR (Prealbumin) is an in vivo biomarker of stabilization.
Time frame: Month 30
All-cause Mortality by Month 30, Including Death Due to Any Cause, Heart Transplant or Cardiac Mechanical Assist Device (CMAD)
Number of deaths due to any cause was analyzed. Participants who had heart transplantation or implantation of a CMAD were handled in the same manner as death.
Time frame: Baseline up to Month 30
