decision is based on positive results from the pivotal HELIOS-B Phase 3 study – a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, global trial that enrolled a diverse group of patients reflective of the contemporary ATTR-CM population, including those receiving substantial concurrent use of available standard-of-care therapies such as tafamidis and SGLT2 inhibitors.

决策基于关键的HELIOS-B第三阶段研究的积极结果——这是一项随机、双盲、安慰剂对照、多中心、全球性试验,招募了反映当代ATTR-CM人群多样性的患者群体,包括那些大量同时使用现有标准治疗疗法(如tafamidis和SGLT2抑制剂)的患者。

AMVUTTRA met all 10 pre-specified primary and secondary endpoints across both the overall and monotherapy populations. These included statistically significant reductions in all-cause mortality and recurrent cardiovascular events, as well as significant improvements in functional capacity (6-minute walk test), health status and quality of life (Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire), and heart failure symptoms and severity (NYHA class).

AMVUTTRA 在整体人群和单药治疗人群中均达到了所有 10 项预先设定的主要和次要终点。这些终点包括全因死亡率和心血管事件复发的统计学显著降低,以及功能能力(6 分钟步行测试)、健康状况和生活质量(堪萨斯城心肌病问卷)和心力衰竭症状及严重程度(NYHA 分级)的显著改善。

In the overall population, AMVUTTRA achieved a 28% reduction in the primary composite of all-cause mortality and recurrent cardiovascular events as compared to placebo. Mortality in this population was significantly reduced by 36% through 42 months in a pre-specified secondary endpoint analysis which included up to 36 months of the double-blind period plus six months of open-label extension.

在总体人群中,与安慰剂相比,AMVUTTRA 在全因死亡率和复发性心血管事件的主要综合指标上实现了 28% 的降低。在此人群的预设次要终点分析中,包括长达 36 个月的双盲期和 6 个月的开放标签延长期,死亡率在 42 个月内显著降低了 36%。

In HELIOS-B, rates of adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, severe AEs and AEs leading to study drug discontinuation were similar between the AMVUTTRA and placebo arms. Adverse drug reactions of AMVUTTRA include injection site reactions and increase in blood alkaline phosphatase and alanine transaminase.

在HELIOS-B中,AMVUTTRA组和安慰剂组之间的不良事件(AE)、严重不良事件、重度不良事件以及导致研究药物停用的不良事件发生率相似。AMVUTTRA的药物不良反应包括注射部位反应以及血液碱性磷酸酶和丙氨酸转氨酶升高。

. “As a physician, it is a privilege to see the true impact on patients in the clinic. The trial enrolled a broad population reflective of real-world clinical practice, and that’s what makes the results so meaningful. This is a milestone for patients, who now have a new treatment option that has the potential to significantly improve outcomes of this disease.” .

“作为一名医生,能在诊所中亲眼看到对患者的真实影响是一种荣幸。该试验招募了反映真实世界临床实践的广泛人群,这使得研究结果具有深远的意义。这对患者而言是一个里程碑,因为他们现在拥有了一种有望显著改善这种疾病预后的新治疗选择。”

ATTR-CM is caused by the deposition of misfolded TTR fibrils, which drive progressive and irreversible cardiovascular damage and premature death. AMVUTTRA is an RNAi therapeutic that works upstream by delivering sustained knockdown of disease-causing TTR at its source. In the EU, it is administered as a subcutaneous injection once every three months, either by a healthcare professional, or self-administered by patients or their caregivers, offering flexibility in treatment delivery. .

ATTR-CM 是由错误折叠的 TTR 原纤维沉积引起的,这些原纤维导致进行性和不可逆的心血管损伤以及过早死亡。AMVUTTRA 是一种 RNAi 疗法,通过在源头持续抑制致病性 TTR 的表达来发挥作用。在欧盟,该药物每三个月通过皮下注射给药一次,可由医疗专业人员进行注射,或由患者本人或其护理人员自行注射,从而为治疗提供了灵活性。

“Amyloidosis is a serious and progressive disease that significantly impacts not only patients’ physical health, but also their quality of life and independence. I am thrilled by the news of a new therapy for people in the EU living with ATTR-CM who often face delayed diagnosis. Having a new treatment option available marks a welcome development for the amyloidosis community,” said Giovanni d’Alessio, President of the .

“Amyloidosis 是一种严重且进展性的疾病,不仅显著影响患者的身体健康,还影响他们的生活质量和独立性。得知欧盟地区患有ATTR-CM的人们有了新的疗法,我感到非常激动,这些人常常面临诊断延迟的问题。拥有一个新的治疗选择标志着淀粉样变性患者群体迎来了可喜的发展,”Giovanni d’Alessio(某组织的主席)表示。

About ATTR

关于ATTR

Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is an underdiagnosed, rapidly progressive, debilitating and fatal disease caused by misfolded transthyretin (TTR) proteins, which accumulate as amyloid deposits in various parts of the body, including the nerves, heart and gastrointestinal tract. Patients may present with polyneuropathy, cardiomyopathy or both manifestations of disease.

转甲状腺素蛋白淀粉样变性(ATTR)是一种因错误折叠的转甲状腺素蛋白(TTR)在身体各部位(包括神经、心脏和胃肠道)堆积形成淀粉样沉积物而导致的诊断不足、进展迅速、致残且致命的疾病。患者可能表现为多发性神经病、心肌病或两种症状并存。

There are two different forms of ATTR – hereditary ATTR (hATTR), which is caused by a TTR gene variant and affects approximately 50,000 people worldwide, and wild-type ATTR (wtATTR), which occurs without a TTR gene variant and impacts an estimated 200,000-300,000 people worldwide..

ATTR有两种不同的形式——遗传性ATTR(hATTR),由TTR基因变异引起,全球约有50,000人受到影响;以及野生型ATTR(wtATTR),它在没有TTR基因变异的情况下发生,全球约有200,000至300,000人受到影响。

About RNAi

关于RNAi

RNAi (RNA interference) is a natural cellular process of gene silencing that represents one of the most promising and rapidly advancing frontiers in biology and drug development today.

RNAi(RNA干扰)是一种天然的基因沉默细胞过程,代表了当今生物学和药物开发中最有前途且进展最快的前沿领域之一。

Its discovery has been heralded as “a major scientific breakthrough that happens once every decade or so,” and was recognized with the award of the 2006 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine.

它的发现被誉为“每隔十年左右才会出现一次的重大科学突破”,并因此获得了2006年诺贝尔生理学或医学奖。

By harnessing the natural biological process of RNAi occurring in our cells, a new class of medicines known as RNAi therapeutics is now a reality. Small interfering RNA (siRNA), the molecules that mediate RNAi and comprise Alnylam’s RNAi therapeutic platform, function upstream of today’s medicines by potently silencing messenger RNA (mRNA) – the genetic precursors that encode for disease-causing or disease pathway proteins – thus preventing them from being made..

通过利用我们细胞中发生的天然生物过程RNAi,一类被称为RNAi治疗药物的新药现已成为现实。小干扰RNA(siRNA)是介导RNAi的分子,也是Alnylam的RNAi治疗平台的组成部分,它通过有效沉默信使RNA(mRNA)——编码致病或疾病通路蛋白质的遗传前体——从而阻止这些蛋白质的生成,在当今药物的上游发挥作用。

This is a revolutionary approach with the potential to transform the care of patients with genetic and other diseases.

这是一项革命性的方法,有潜力改变遗传病和其他疾病患者的护理方式。
