Capella—the Online Voice of Progress in RNAi

Welcome to Capella, Alnylam’s destination for updates on our work translating the breakthrough discovery of RNA interference (RNAi) into an innovative new class of medicines. We’ve been pioneering RNAi therapeutics since 2002 and are excited to share our ongoing scientific progress.

New results and analyses of study data for ONPATTRO® (patisiran) were presented at the 2020 Peripheral Nerve Society (PNS) Annual Meeting, held June 27-30 as a virtual event.

Adams, et al. – “Global Open-Label Extension: 24-Month Data of Patisiran in Patients with hATTR Amyloidosis”

Lin, et al. – “Evaluation of Patisiran with Concomitant or Prior Use of Transthyretin Stabilizers”

Peltier, et al. – “Impact of Patisiran on Activities of Daily Living and Functional Status in hATTR Amyloidosis”

Coelho, et al. – “Open-Label Study of Patisiran in Patients with hATTR Amyloidosis Post-Orthotopic Liver Transplant”

Ticau, et al. – “Neurofilament Light Chain May Serve as a Biomarker in Hereditary Transthyretin-Mediated Amyloidosis”

Interim results from the open-label extension (OLE) period of the ENVISION Phase 3 study of GIVLAARI® (givosiran) in acute hepatic porphyria (AHP) were presented by study investigator Eliane Sardh, M.D., Ph.D. during a webinar hosted by Alnylam, demonstrating sustained efficacy and acceptable safety through 12 months of treatment, with evidence for potentially improved efficacy over time.

We presented new long-term results from the global Open-Label Extension (OLE) study of ONPATTRO® (patisiran) at the European Academy of Neurology (EAN) Virtual Congress, held May 23-26, 2020. In addition, results were presented from a Phase 3b trial evaluating treatment with patisiran in patients with hATTR amyloidosis with disease progression after receiving an orthotopic liver transplant (post-OLT). A post-hoc analysis of the ENVISION Phase 3 study of GIVLAARI® (givosiran) was also presented.

An abstract describing new 12-month interim data from the ongoing ENVISION open-label extension (OLE) study of givosiran in patients with acute hepatic porphyria (AHP) has been published online by the European Association for the Society of the Liver (EASL) on the International Liver Congress™ (ILC 2020) website.  The data will be presented during the ILC 2020 (London, UK) which was rescheduled to August 25-28, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
