摘要
This article focuses on the patient experience of AL amyloidosis; the unique challenges that patients face from the journey to diagnosis through treatment; and management of this complex multisystemic disease. Included are descriptions of the most significant AL amyloidosis symptoms as well as addressing burden of disease, including financial concerns, and psychological impact. In 2015 a Patient Focused Drug Development meeting held at the Food and Drug Administration provided valuable data that is shaping the drug development landscape and are reviewed here. The article concludes with a list of useful resources and organizations for patients and caregivers.
