ALNY Overview

Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (also referred to as Alnylam, the Company, we, our or us) is a global commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapeutics based on ribonucleic acid interference, or RNAi. RNAi is a naturally occurring biological pathway within cells for sequence-specific silencing and regulation of gene expression. By harnessing the RNAi pathway, we have pioneered a new class of innovative medicines, known as RNAi therapeutics. RNAi therapeutics are comprised of small interfering RNA, or siRNA, that function upstream of conventional medicines by potently silencing messenger RNA, or mRNA, that encode for proteins implicated in the cause or pathway of disease, thus preventing them from being made. We believe this is a revolutionary approach with the potential to transform the care of patients across a broad range of disease areas and indications. To date, our efforts to advance this revolutionary approach have yielded the approval of six first-in-class RNAi-based medicines: AMVUTTRA (vutrisiran), ONPATTRO (patisiran), GIVLAARI (givosiran), OXLUMO (lumasiran), Leqvio (inclisiran) and Qfitlia (fitusiran). Our research and development strategy is to target genetically validated genes that have been implicated in the cause or pathway of human disease.
