Researchers looked at how many people with ATTR-CM were alive after two and a half years and three and a half years. They also looked at the people had when they took tafamidis.In people who took tafamidis, an estimated 8 in 10 people (84%) were alive after two and a half years, and an estimated 8 in 10 people (77%) were alive after three and a half years. In people who did not take tafamidis, an estimated 7 in 10 people (70%) were alive after two and a half years, and an estimated 6 in 10 people (59%) were alive after three and a half years.
