New results from a post-hoc analysis of outpatient heart failure worsening in the APOLLO-B Phase 3 study of patisiran were presented at the 2024 ACC Annual Scientific Session. Additional data were also presented from a meta-regression analysis of the association between change in 6-minute walk distance and survival in transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy.

New preclinical data for ALN-HTT02—an RNAi therapeutic development candidate targeting huntingtin (HTT) for Huntington’s disease (HD)—were presented during the CHDI Foundation’s 19th Annual Huntington’s Disease Therapeutics Conference in Palm Springs, CA . Additional data were presented on the emerging tolerability profile of the underlying C16-siRNA central nervous system delivery platform, highlighting potential differences with antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) in development for HD.
