Acoramidis Associated with Significantly Improved Clinical Outcomes Versus Tafamidis in ATTR-CM in an Independent, Real-World Study of U.S. Electronic Health Records

Hospitalization findings favored acoramidis, but short follow-up limited assessment of less frequent outcomes such as mortality.

Rhea-AI Summary

BridgeBio Pharma (BBIO) announced independent real-world findings associating acoramidis with an 18% lower risk of a composite clinical outcome versus tafamidis.

The matched electronic health record study included 2,684 people with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). The composite covered death, all-cause hospitalization, new-onset atrial fibrillation and increased diuretic treatment (p<0.01). Acoramidis was associated with 27% lower cardiovascular hospitalization risk, 27% lower heart failure hospitalization risk and 25% lower all-cause hospitalization risk (all p<0.001). Death and new-onset atrial fibrillation differences were not statistically significant. Residual confounding cannot be excluded, follow-up was relatively short and full results remain under peer review. Phase 3 analyses presented at HFSA also reported hospitalization and quality-of-life benefits versus placebo.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

3 terms

propensity score-matched technical

"propensity score-matched analysis of 2,684 individuals"

A propensity score-matched analysis is a statistical method that pairs individuals from two groups (for example, those who received a treatment and those who did not) who had a similar likelihood of receiving that treatment based on observed characteristics. Like comparing twins who share the same background except for one difference, this approach reduces bias from measurable factors and makes results more comparable, helping investors judge whether reported effects are likely real or driven by differences in the groups.

nt-probnp medical

"combined standardized NT-proBNP and BNP variable"

A blood test marker released when the heart is under strain; higher NT‑proBNP levels indicate the heart is working harder or may be failing, similar to a dashboard warning light that signals engine stress. Investors watch NT‑proBNP because changes in the marker can drive clinical trial results, treatment approvals, hospital use, and insurance decisions for heart drugs and devices, all of which affect revenue, adoption and valuation in healthcare companies.

kaplan-meier technical

"Kaplan-Meier time-to-event curves for the composite endpoint"

A Kaplan-Meier estimate is a statistical curve that shows how long it takes for a particular event—such as recovery, relapse, or death—to occur in a group over time, with the curve stepping down as events happen. Investors use these curves to assess the duration and timing of a treatment's or risk's effects—like watching how many light bulbs remain working week by week—because the timing and likelihood of outcomes influence clinical decisions, regulatory approval, and revenue prospects.

- In an independent, propensity score-matched analysis of 2,684 individuals living with ATTR-CM from Epic COSMOS, the largest U.S. electronic health record database, acoramidis was associated with a statistically significant 18% lower risk of a composite of death, all-cause hospitalization, new-onset atrial fibrillation, and diuretic intensification versus tafamidis (HR 0.82; 95% CI 0.73-0.93; p<0.01)

- Early separation of the composite curves was noted within one month in this contemporary cohort of patients from 2025, with consistent results across unadjusted, matched, and biomarker-adjusted analyses

- Acoramidis was associated with significant reductions in hospitalization, among the outcomes that matter most to people living with ATTR-CM, with a 27% lower risk of cardiovascular hospitalization, 27% lower risk of heart failure hospitalization, and 25% lower risk of all-cause hospitalization as compared to tafamidis (all p<0.001) 

- These findings replicate the earlier Wright et al. Komodo claims analysis published in Cardiology and Therapy, in which acoramidis was associated with a 34% reduction in clinical worsening events versus tafamidis (p=0.046), making this the second real-world comparative effectiveness analysis, and the first in electronic health records, to favor acoramidis, supporting the reproducibility of the benefit

- ATTRibute-CM data also presented at HFSA underscore the importance of hospitalization reduction: mortality risk approximately doubled after a single cardiovascular hospitalization and quadrupled after two or more, making hospitalization prevention a central treatment goal in ATTR-CM

- Together, these data have the potential to inform the use of acoramidis as the stabilizer of choice, both in newly diagnosed patients and in those on other disease-modifying agents

PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: BBIO) ("BridgeBio" or the "Company"), a commercial-stage, multi-product biopharmaceutical company focused on developing medicines for genetic conditions, announced that new, independent and contemporary real-world evidence as well as Phase 3 ATTRibute-CM sub-analyses of acoramidis in transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) were presented at the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) 2026 in Phoenix, Arizona. Acoramidis is the only selective small molecule, orally administered, near-complete (≥90%) transthyretin (TTR) stabilizer.

"In a prior real-world claims analysis, acoramidis was associated with fewer diuretic intensification events, suggesting the possibility of greater clinical stability on acoramidis, but this obviously needed to be interpreted with caution. This new, larger, electronic health record study of nearly 2,700 individuals with ATTR-CM with longer follow-up and more granular data is better able to address the question, and shows a similar signal, with a significant difference in rates of cardiovascular or heart failure hospitalizations favoring acoramidis compared to tafamidis, with approximately one quarter lower risk of events," said David Lanfear, M.D., M.S., Chief Scientific Officer, Vice President of Research at Henry Ford Health, U.S. "While electronic health record studies have well-recognized limitations, these data allow us to see how these therapies perform outside of a clinical trial, across a diverse and contemporary patient population. Moreover, there appears to be some consistency of findings across data sources and endpoints, supporting validity. Additional investigations to replicate and extend these findings are warranted."

In a retrospective analysis conducted and presented by Dr. Lanfear, individuals with ATTR-CM newly initiating acoramidis had lower rates of adverse cardiac outcomes than individuals newly initiating tafamidis. The study leveraged data from Epic COSMOS, the largest U.S. electronic health record database, with over 300 million patients. This dataset includes detailed, anonymized clinical records captured in the course of routine patient care, such as laboratory values and medication records. After matching, 910 acoramidis-treated and 1,774 tafamidis-treated individuals were included, with similar baseline characteristics across treatment groups. Key findings included:

• The composite endpoint of death, all-cause hospitalization, new-onset atrial fibrillation, or diuretic intensification was significantly lower with acoramidis across all three analyses: unadjusted (HR 0.82; 95% CI 0.72-0.90; p<0.001), primary (18% lower risk; HR 0.82; 95% CI 0.73-0.93; p<0.01), and a sensitivity analysis adjusting for a combined standardized NT-proBNP and BNP variable where available (HR 0.84; 95% CI 0.72-0.97; p=0.02)
• Acoramidis-treated individuals had statistically significantly lower rates of hospitalization than tafamidis-treated individuals, including a 27% lower risk of cardiovascular hospitalization (HR 0.73; 95% CI 0.62-0.86; p<0.001), a 27% lower risk of heart failure hospitalization (HR 0.73; 95% CI 0.62-0.87; p<0.001), and a 25% lower risk of all-cause hospitalization (HR 0.75; 95% CI 0.64-0.88; p<0.001)
• Diuretic intensification, an early marker of disease progression, was 17% lower with acoramidis (HR 0.83; 95% CI 0.71-0.95; p<0.01). Diuretic intensification was defined as use of parenteral loop diuretics, initiation or dose-equivalent escalation of oral loop diuretics, or use of a thiazide-like diuretic
• Differences in death (HR 0.85; 95% CI 0.62-1.20; p=0.34) and new-onset atrial fibrillation (HR 0.88; 95% CI 0.68-1.13; p=0.31) numerically favored acoramidis, consistent with the composite, but did not reach statistical significance, reflecting lower event counts and limited duration of follow-up for these longer-term endpoints. These endpoints will be reassessed as the cohort matures
• Kaplan-Meier time-to-event curves for the composite endpoint showed early and sustained separation between treatment groups over follow-up (p=0.0014)
• The consistency of the treatment effect across unadjusted, matched, and biomarker-adjusted analyses and across multiple clinical outcomes supports the robustness of the observed difference

These findings in electronic health record data replicate and expand on the results of the first peer-reviewed, claims-based real-world comparative effectiveness study of TTR stabilizers in ATTR-CM, in which acoramidis was associated with a 34% reduction in a composite of clinical worsening events (diuretic intensification, heart failure hospitalization, and mortality) versus tafamidis (p=0.046), supporting the reproducibility of the observed benefit across independent data sources and data types.

As with all observational studies, there are inherent limitations. Although propensity-score matching balanced patient baseline characteristics and results remained consistent across both unweighted and sensitivity analyses, the possibility of residual confounding cannot be fully excluded. Follow-up was relatively short due to recent approval of acoramidis, which limited the number of events available to assess less frequent outcomes, such as mortality. These factors would not be expected to affect one treatment group differently than the other, and the consistency of results across multiple endpoints and in multiple studies supports the robustness of the findings. As data continue to mature, additional analyses with longer follow-up periods will be shared. The full results of this analysis are currently under peer-review by a journal.

Three additional analyses presented at HFSA ASM 2026 continued to reinforce the acoramidis narrative, reaffirming the importance of reducing cardiovascular-related hospitalizations (CVH) in ATTR-CM, the differentiated cardiorenal impact of acoramidis, and the benefit of acoramidis within variant ATTR-CM patients:

• Cardiovascular-related hospitalizations associated with higher risk of mortality: Association Between the Burden of CVH and All-Cause Mortality (ACM) in Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy: Insights from ATTRibute-CM, presented by Quan Bui, M.D. of UC San Diego Health, U.S.
  • In this post hoc analysis of ATTRibute-CM (pooled treatment groups; N=611), fewer than half of participants who experienced two or more cardiovascular-related hospitalizations were alive at 30 months. Survival fell from 86.7% in participants with no CVH events to 68.4% with one and 47.7% with two or more (log-rank p<0.0001)
  • Mortality risk approximately doubled after a single hospitalization and quadrupled after two or more, establishing CVH burden as a marker of subsequent mortality risk and reinforcing hospitalization prevention as a clinically meaningful treatment goal in ATTR-CM
  • Acoramidis reduced the annualized frequency of CVH by 50% through Month 30 versus placebo (p < 0.0001), with Kaplan-Meier curves for time to first CVH separating from Month 3
• Unique cardiorenal impact of acoramidis: Early eGFR Dip Following Acoramidis Initiation is Associated With Reduced Risk of Mortality and Recurrent Cardiovascular-Related Hospitalizations in ATTR-CM, presented by Ahmad Masri, M.D., M.S. of Oregon Health & Science University, U.S.
  • In the ATTRibute-CM study, acoramidis-treated participants with a greater Day 28 eGFR dip following treatment initiation were associated with a significantly reduced risk of mortality or recurrent CVH versus placebo, with no clinically concerning changes observed in laboratory parameters or blood pressure
  • These findings provide additional context for the reported association between greater early eGFR decline and improved first CVH outcomes with acoramidis, and build upon the 42% reduction in recurrent CVH/ACM previously demonstrated with acoramidis over placebo in ATTRibute-CM
  • These results build upon analyses previously published in Circulation: Heart Failure; details on results can be found here
• Acoramidis benefit in p.Val142Ile variant patients: Acoramidis Preserves Functional Capacity and Quality of Life in p.Val142Ile Variant Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy: Results from ATTRibute-CM, presented by Lily Stern, M.D. of Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute, U.S.
  • In this post hoc analysis of 35 ATTRibute-CM participants with the p.Val142Ile variant (acoramidis, n = 23; placebo, n = 12), acoramidis significantly attenuated 30-month declines in heart failure-related health status and quality of life versus placebo: differences of 23.3 points in KCCQ-OS score (p = 0.005), 25.8 points in EQ VAS score (p = 0.003), and 0.26 in EQ-5D-5L index score (p = 0.018), each several-fold above published thresholds for clinically meaningful change.
  • Decline in 6-minute walk distance was numerically smaller with acoramidis (LSM difference: 67.2 m; p = 0.136)
  • These findings complement the previously reported 69% reduction in the risk of all-cause mortality or first cardiovascular-related hospitalization with acoramidis through Month 30 in this subgroup
    

In addition to the two rapid-fire oral presentations, one oral presentation, and one poster presentation highlighted, there was one additional rapid-fire oral presentation and five additional poster presentations along with four encore poster presentations shared at HFSA ASM 2026, which included:

• Ratio of Serum Transthyretin to NT-proBNP is a Novel Prognostic Measure for Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy: Insights from ATTRibute-CM, presented by James L. Januzzi, M.D. of Massachusetts General Hospital, U.S. and simultaneously published in JACC: Heart Failure
  
  • In ATTR-CM, early acoramidis-mediated sTTR increases were associated with later NT-proBNP decreases. The Day 28 sTTR to Month 12 NT-proBNP ratio, integrating early pharmacodynamic response with downstream cardiac stress, is a prognostic biomarker of clinical risk in ATTR-CM
• Falls and Fractures Drive Increased Hospitalizations and Costs in Patients with Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy Compared with Controls, presented by Nitasha Sarswat, M.D. of University of Chicago, U.S.
  • ATTR-CM was associated with increased falls and fall-related consequences, including fractures, bleeding after a fall, discontinuation of oral anticoagulant use, and related hospitalizations and costs, compared with matched heart failure (HF) and non-HF controls, consistent with substantial disease burden beyond cardiac manifestations and with higher healthcare resource utilization
• Evaluating the Long-Term Effects of Acoramidis on Cardiac Function, Structure, and Amyloid Burden in Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy: ASCEND-ATTR, presented by Ahmad Masri, M.D., M.S. of Oregon Health & Science University, U.S.
  • ASCEND-ATTR will determine whether long-term transthyretin stabilization is associated with sustained improvement in myocardial structure, function, and amyloid burden. By integrating serial CMR and echocardiography, the study aims to provide mechanistic insights into cardiac remodeling during treatment and help define imaging biomarkers of therapeutic response
• Real-World Burden of Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy Disease and Outcomes in Patients on Tafamidis Prior to Initiating Acoramidis, presented by Richard Wright, M.D. of Pacific Heart Institute, U.S.
  • Nearly half of patients receiving tafamidis exhibited markers of ATTR-CM clinical worsening within the 6 months preceding acoramidis initiation. This burden appears higher than previously reported real-world disease progression rates after tafamidis initiation and warrants further study. Future research should evaluate drivers of switching therapy and outcomes after transitioning to acoramidis
• Acoramidis Reduces Risk of Cardiovascular-related Mortality and Hospitalization in Women with Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy, presented by Margot Davis, M.D. of University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada
  
  • Among women enrolled in ATTRibute-CM, who entered the trial older and with a more advanced clinical phenotype than men, acoramidis reduced the risk of cardiovascular mortality or first cardiovascular-related hospitalization through Month 30 and attenuated the rise in NT-proBNP versus placebo. Treatment effects in women aligned with the overall population, with no significant treatment-by-sex interaction. This may represent the first reported analysis from a phase 3 ATTR-CM trial to show a nominally statistically significant treatment effect for this endpoint among women. While the small number of women enrolled limits precision, these findings support the efficacy of acoramidis in women and underscore the need for adequately powered, sex-informed evidence in ATTR-CM
    
• Effect of Acoramidis on Heart Failure-Related Health Status Before and After Cardiovascular-Related Hospitalization: Insights from ATTRibute-CM, presented by Ahmad Masri, M.D., M.S. of Oregon Health & Science University, U.S.
  • Worsening KCCQ-OS precedes CVH and may serve as an early indicator of an adverse outcome in patients with ATTR-CM. Following a CVH event, acoramidis was associated with recovery of health status versus continued decline observed with placebo, suggesting a beneficial effect on post-CVH health status trajectory

FAQ

AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.

What did BridgeBio's acoramidis study show versus tafamidis in ATTR-CM?

Acoramidis was associated with an 18% lower risk of the composite outcome in the matched analysis (p<0.01). The outcome combined death, all-cause hospitalization, new-onset atrial fibrillation and diuretic intensification. The retrospective electronic health record comparison included 910 acoramidis-treated and 1,774 tafamidis-treated individuals.

Does BridgeBio's real-world acoramidis comparison establish a mortality benefit versus tafamidis?

The mortality difference versus tafamidis was not statistically significant (HR 0.85; 95% CI 0.62-1.20; p=0.34). Relatively short follow-up limited mortality events, and residual confounding cannot be fully excluded in this observational study.

How was diuretic intensification defined in BridgeBio's acoramidis comparison?

Diuretic intensification meant injected loop diuretics, initiation or dose-equivalent escalation of oral loop diuretics, or use of a thiazide-like diuretic. These medicines help remove excess fluid, and intensification was included in the study's composite outcome.

What did BridgeBio's ATTRibute-CM analysis show about hospitalization and survival?

In a post hoc analysis pooling treatment groups, 30-month survival was 86.7% without cardiovascular hospitalizations, 68.4% after one and 47.7% after two or more (log-rank p<0.0001). The analysis included 611 participants; mortality risk approximately doubled after one hospitalization and quadrupled after two or more.
