Alnylam’s Amvuttra (vutrisiran) Receives the US FDA’s Approval for Polyneuropathy of Hereditary Transthyretin-Mediated Amyloidosis

The trial met the 1EPs & 2EPs i.e., improvement in mNIS+7 from baseline @9mos. (2.2point vs 14.8 point), 50% experienced an improvement in neuropathy impairment relative to baseline, Norfolk QoL-DN score & 10-MWT
Improvements in exploratory EPs, and efficacy results were consistent with 9mos. data with no drug-related discontinuations or deaths.
