Prothena Highlights Phase 2 Data for Coramitug (Formerly PRX004) Published in Circulation, Official Journal of AHA

  • Novo Nordisk’s Phase 2 data for coramitug supports ongoing Phase 3 CLEOPATTRA clinical trial in patients with ATTR amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy
  • Coramitug is being developed by Novo Nordisk as part of their up to $1.2 billion acquisition of Prothena’s ATTR amyloidosis business and pipeline

Prothena Corporation plc (NASDAQ: PRTA) announced the publication of Phase 2 clinical trial data for coramitug (formerly PRX004), a potential first-in-class amyloid depleter antibody, for the treatment of ATTR amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), in the American Heart Association’s journal, Circulation.

A link to the online publication can be found here:

Coramitug, a Humanized Monoclonal Antibody for the Treatment of Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy: a Phase 2, Randomized, Multicenter, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial1

The Phase 2 clinical trial results were presented during a late-breaking session at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions on November 10, 2025 and simultaneously published in AHA journal, Circulation. Novo Nordisk recently initiated the Phase 3 CLEOPATTRA clinical trial evaluating the effects of coramitug versus placebo on cardiovascular outcomes in participants with ATTR-CM (NCT07207811).

Novo Nordisk gained full worldwide rights to the intellectual property and related rights of the ATTR amyloidosis business and pipeline it acquired from Prothena in July 2021. Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, Prothena is eligible to receive up to $1.2 billion dollars upon achievement of clinical development and sales milestones, including $100 million earned to date. Prothena is eligible to earn a clinical milestone payment when prespecified enrollment criteria are met in the CLEOPATTRA Phase 3 clinical trial.

About Coramitug (formerly PRX004)

Coramitug (formerly PRX004) is an investigational antibody designed to deplete amyloid associated with disease pathology in hereditary and wild type ATTR amyloidosis, without affecting the native, normal tetrameric form of the protein2-4. Coramitug’s proposed mechanism of action is to deplete both the deposited amyloid to improve organ function and circulating non-native TTR to prevent further organ deposition2-4. This differentiated depleter mechanism of action could be developed as a monotherapy approach to ATTR amyloidosis and might also complement existing therapeutic approaches which either stabilize or reduce production of the native TTR tetramer4.
