Outcomes
NIS is a composite, quantitative measure of both large-and small-fiber dysfunction used to evaluate the participant's muscle strength, sensation, and reflexes. Total NIS is graded on a scale of 0-244, with a higher score indicating greater impairment.
The Norfolk QoL-DN score is a measure of physical function/large fiber neuropathy, symptoms, activities of daily living, small fiber neuropathy, and autonomic neuropathy. The Norfolk QoL-DN total score has a range of -4 to 136, and a higher score indicates poorer quality of life.
NSC score is a questionnaire composed of 38 questions that assess the presence and severity of neuropathy symptoms (including weakness, loss of temperature and pain sensation, and manifestations associated with autonomic nervous system dysfunction).
The SF-36 is composed of 8 multi-item scales (35 items) assessing physical function (10 items), role limitations due to physical health problems (4 items), bodily pain (2 items), general health (5 items), vitality (4 items), social functioning (2 items), role limitations due to emotional problems (3 items) and emotional well-being (5 items). Each of the 8 scales is scored from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better health. The 8 scales can be aggregated into a PCS score, which is also scaled from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better health.
PND score assesses disease severity using a 5-stage scoring system. It includes Stage 0: no impairment; Stage 1: sensory disturbances but preserved walking capabilities; Stage 2: impaired walking capacity, but ability to walk without a stick or crutches; Stage 3A/B: walking with help of 1 or 2 sticks or crutches; Stage 4: confined to wheel chair or bedridden.
mBMI is defined as body mass index in kilograms per square meter (kg/m\^2) multiplied by serum albumin in grams per liter (g/L).
COMPASS-31 is a 31-question participant-reported assessment that measures autonomic symptoms across 6 weighted domains on a 100-point scale: orthostatic intolerance (40 points), vasomotor (5 points), secretomotor (15 points), gastrointestinal (25 points), bladder (10 points), and pupillomotor (15 points). A higher score indicates worse autonomic dysfunction.
The EQ-5D-5L is a standard measure of health-related quality of life. EQ-5D-5L consists of two components: a health state profile and a visual analog scale (VAS). EQ-5D health state profile comprises 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: 1=no problems, 2=slight problems, 3=moderate problems, 4=severe problems, and 5=extreme problems. The 5D-5L systems are converted into a single index utility score between 0 to 1, where a higher score indicates a better health state. The VAS records the participant's health on a 0-100 mm VAS scale, with 0 indicating "the worst health you can imagine" and 100 indicating "the best health you can imagine". Higher scores of EQ VAS indicate better health.
Study Overview
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of extended dosing with Eplontersen in participants with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloid polyneuropathy (hATTR-PN).
This is a multicenter, open-label, Phase 3 study in up to approximately 140 participants. Eligible participants will receive Eplontersen once every 4 weeks for up to 157 weeks. Participants will also receive daily supplemental doses of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of vitamin A. This study will consist of the following periods: less than or equal to (≤) 8-week screening period, a 157 weeks treatment period, and a 24-week post-treatment evaluation period.

3. Satisfy the following:
1. Females: must be non-pregnant and non-lactating and either:
* Surgically sterile (e.g., tubal occlusion, hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral oophorectomy);
* Post-menopausal (defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea in females \> 55 years of age or, in females ≤ 55 years, 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea without an alternative medical cause and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in the postmenopausal range for the laboratory involved;
* Abstinent\*;
* If engaged in sexual relations of child-bearing potential, agree to use highly effective contraceptive methods from the time of signing the informed consent form until at least 24 weeks after the last dose of Eplontersen and agree to receive pregnancy tests per protocol.
2. Males: Surgically sterile (i.e., bilateral orchidectomy) or abstinent\*, if engaged in sexual relations with a woman of child-bearing potential (WOCBP), the participant or the participant's non-pregnant female partner must use a highly effective contraceptive method from the time of signing the informed consent form until at least 24 weeks after the last dose of Eplontersen. \*Abstinence (i.e., refraining from heterosexual intercourse throughout the duration of study participation) is only acceptable as true abstinence, i.e., when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods), declaration of abstinence for the duration of a trial and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.
