Transthyretin amyloidosis is a rare disease and its symptoms are not easily identified. It is therefore, diagnosed late, which in turn affects the course of action in terms of treatment. According to the data published by The American Journal of Managed Care in 2017, hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis affects around 50,000 patients worldwide. However, the diagnosis rate of disease is very low. According to the study published by Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc., in January 2018, the diagnosis rate of hATTR in the U.S. is around ~10-30%, which is expected to be a major factor restraining growth of the market over the forecast period.
