NAPLES, Fla., Sept. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Attralus, Inc., a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing transformative medicines and diagnostics to improve the lives of patients with systemic amyloidosis, announced five poster presentations and two oral presentations (from investigator-initiated trials), on the use of 124I-evuzamitide and AT-05 (99mTc-p5+14) , the company’s pan-amyloid binding diagnostic imaging agents in development for the diagnosis of systemic amyloidosis, at the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology Annual Scientific Session & Exhibition (ASNC) held in Orlando, FL on September 4–7, 2025.
“Diagnosing patients early remains one of the biggest unmet needs for systemic amyloidosis patients, with many going years without an accurate diagnosis. Current diagnostic methods focus on transthyretin amyloidosis and may not accurately detect early infiltration of amyloid deposits,” said Ahmad Masri, M.D., Associate Professor of Medicine and Cardiomyopathy Section Head at Oregon Health & Science University. “In our PET/MR study, in 111 patients, we were able to show 100 percent sensitivity and specificity for detection of cardiac amyloid in ATTR, AL, and other rare types of systemic amyloidosis patients, including in very early patients. In addition, we demonstrated the ability of 124I-evuzamitide to detect extracardiac amyloid and to monitor changes in amyloid load over time with repeated measures. We have been impressed by the results to date and are very much looking forward to the results of the ongoing Phase 3 REVEAL study in suspected cardiac amyloidosis patients. We are excited by the potential of 124I-evuzamitide to become a new standard of care for diagnosing and monitoring of systemic amyloidosis.”
“Detection and quantification of amyloid burden in the heart is an unmet clinical need for patients with diverse types of systemic amyloidosis,” said Jonathan Wall, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor, University of Tennessee Graduate School of Medicine. “AT-05 is a promising new reagent for the detection of ATTR and AL cardiac amyloid using planar gamma or SPECT imaging and may serve as a useful tool for the early detection of cardiac and extracardiac amyloid in the community setting for healthcare professionals that have limited access to PET imaging scanners.
“We are excited about the promise of both 124I-evuzamitide and AT-05 to impact the lives of systemic amyloidosis patients by potentially diagnosing them earlier and more accurately than current standard of care. Patients receive the most benefit from new therapeutics if given early in the disease process and early diagnosis with 124I-evuzamitide could lead to better outcomes for patients. We are excited about the progress of the ongoing REVEAL phase 3 study and look forward to the results in early 2026,” said Spencer Guthrie, Chief Operating Officer, Attralus.

About 124I-evuzamitide (AT-01) Pan-Amyloid Diagnostic
124I-evuzamitide is the first non-invasive pan-amyloid PET imaging agent specifically designed for systemic amyloidosis. 124I-evuzamitide utilizes the company’s pan-amyloid binding peptide labeled with iodine-124 as an amyloid-specific radiotracer to detect all types of systemic amyloidosis by PET/CT imaging. In clinical trials, 124I-evuzamitide has been observed to detect multiple types of amyloid deposits, including ATTR and AL, in major organs such as the heart, kidney, liver, and spleen. Orphan drug designations have been granted to 124I-evuzamitide as a diagnostic for the management of ATTR and AL amyloidosis by both the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Commission.
About Phase 3 REVEAL Study
Research with 124I-EVuzamitide to Elucidate Cardiac AmyLoidosis (REVEAL) study is an ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial of the investigational diagnostic imaging agent 124I-evuzamitide in patients with suspected cardiac amyloidosis by Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, MA. The trial is designed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of 124I-evuzamitide imaging to diagnose cardiac amyloidosis.
About AT-05, Pan-Amyloid Diagnostic
AT-05 uses the same pan amyloid binding peptide as 124I-evuzamitide but is labelled with technetium-99m (Tc-99m, 99mTc). AT-05 is designed to be used with single-photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT) to be more accessible to community cardiologists and thereby support broader screening of systemic amyloidosis. AT-05 is currently in a Phase 1 clinical trial.
About Systemic Amyloidosis
Systemic amyloidosis encompasses a diverse group of rare diseases that occur due to accumulation of toxic amyloid deposits in tissues and organs, a consequence of aberrant protein misfolding events. These diseases are progressive, debilitating and often fatal. The majority of systemic amyloidosis patients have cardiac involvement, including the two most common forms, with ~95 percent of ATTR and 75% of AL patients having cardiac involvement. Other rare types of systemic amyloidosis such as AA, AApoAI, AApoAIV also have cardiac involvement. Cardiac amyloidosis is significantly underdiagnosed due to low awareness, non- specific symptoms, and lack of disease-specific diagnostics. There remains a significant unmet need for better diagnostics that may be able to more accurately diagnose patients earlier in the disease process.
