About Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

About Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Alnylam Pharmaceuticals generated $2.99 billion in net product revenues in 2025 from four directly commercialized RNAi medicines — AMVUTTRA, ONPATTRO, GIVLAARI, and OXLUMO — marking the company's first profitable fiscal year. AMVUTTRA received FDA approval for ATTR cardiomyopathy in March 2025, expanding its U.S. indication, with European Commission approval following in June 2025. Two additional products, Leqvio and Qfitlia, are commercialized by Novartis and Sanofi in markets now covering 108 countries for Leqvio.

Alnylam earns revenue from direct product sales through specialty distribution channels plus royalties and collaboration payments from Novartis (Leqvio), Sanofi (Qfitlia), Roche (zilebesiran), and Regeneron (cemdisiran). AMVUTTRA targets transthyretin protein synthesis via quarterly subcutaneous injection; coverage policies from Medicare, Medicaid, and private payors govern net realized pricing. The company relies on third-party contract manufacturers for commercial supply. The clinical pipeline adds potential upside: nucresiran entered Phase 3 trials TRITON-PN and TRITON-CM in 2025; zilebesiran entered the ZENITH Phase 3 cardiovascular outcomes trial in September 2025 alongside Roche; mivelsiran reported Phase 1 data in early-onset Alzheimer's disease in July 2025. Regeneron plans a U.S. regulatory submission for cemdisiran in generalized myasthenia gravis in the first quarter of 2026.

Show full overview

Pricing pressure from the Inflation Reduction Act could weigh on future AMVUTTRA revenues as the U.S. government expands its list of drugs subject to Medicare price negotiation. The 10-K explicitly identifies 'most-favored nation pricing measures, measures requiring the U.S. government in the future to negotiate the prices of certain drugs' as risks affecting AMVUTTRA commercialization. ATTR cardiomyopathy is a prevalent adult condition with a large Medicare patient population, and Alnylam's stated dependence on AMVUTTRA as a 'significant portion' of net product revenues places a defined ceiling risk on the TTR franchise's long-term net pricing.
