OBJECTIVE: To study the impact of time to diagnosis on cardiac Mayo stages, treatment outcome, and overall survival. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 77 consecutive patients diagnosed between 2015 and 2020 with AL amyloidosis and cardiac involvement. Medical history was recorded in standardized form with the help of a questionnaire. RESULTS: Time from onset of symptoms of cardiac failure to diagnosis was correlated with the severity of cardiac involvement in modified Mayo 2004 and revised Mayo 2012 staging systems (rs  = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.07-0.50, P = .007 and rs  = 0.25, 95% CI: 0.01-0.45, P = .03). Patients with advanced Mayo 2004 stages received reduced-intensity regimens and had a lower probability to achieve adequate hematologic- and cardiac response after first-line treatment than patients with early stages (rs  = 0.28, 95% CI: 0.04-0.48, P = .01 and rs  = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.55-0.82, P < .0001) and poorer overall survival (P = .0004). Compared with patients diagnosed within the first year, patients diagnosed after 13-18 or ≥19 months from first symptoms had a 3- to 5 times higher risk of dying. Our data indicate that there is a 12-month window within which the diagnosis of AL amyloidosis needs to be established to avoid early deterioration and death. CONCLUSIONS: Sensitizing physicians and raising awareness for the disease are crucial for timely diagnosis and may improve the outcome of the disease.
