CAMBRIDGE, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Jun. 24, 2024– Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALNY), the leading RNAi therapeutics company, today announced positive topline results from its HELIOS-B Phase 3 study of vutrisiran, an investigational RNAi therapeutic in development for the treatment of ATTR amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM).
The study met the primary endpoint, demonstrating a statistically significant reduction in the composite of all-cause mortality and recurrent cardiovascular (CV) events during the double-blind period in both the overall population (HR 0.718, p-value 0.0118; n=654) and in the monotherapy population (patients not receiving tafamidis at baseline; HR 0.672, p-value 0.0162; n=395).
The study also demonstrated statistically significant improvements across all secondary endpoints in both the overall and monotherapy populations. This includes key measures of disease progression: 6-minute walk test (6-MWT), Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) and New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class at Month 30 (p<0.025 for all). Importantly, treatment with vutrisiran also reduced all-cause mortality in the overall population (HR 0.645, p<0.025) and in the monotherapy population (HR 0.655, p<0.05) up to Month 42. This was a pre-specified, intent-to-treat analysis that included up to six months of data from the open-label extension.
