Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALNY) is pleased to announce its consolidated financial results for the third quarter of 2024. The leading RNAi therapeutics company achieved notable commercial and clinical milestones, reporting a year-over-year revenue increase driven by strong demand for its innovative treatments.
Financial Performance Overview
During this quarter, Alnylam reported global net product revenues of $420 million, reflecting a robust 34% growth compared to the same period last year. The company's performance was mainly influenced by its TTR (transthyretin) therapeutics, particularly ONPATTRO (patisiran) and AMVUTTRA (vutrisiran), which collectively garnered revenue increases. The growth trajectory for TTR therapies showcases patient confidence in Alnylam's groundbreaking products.
Diving Deeper into Revenue Gains
In terms of specific product performance, ONPATTRO generated $50 million, while AMVUTTRA significantly contributed $259 million during the quarter, indicating a strategic shift in treatment preferences. Alnylam also saw promising sales for its rare disease treatment portfolio, which includes GIVLAARI (givosiran) and OXLUMO (lumasiran), which together brought in $111 million.
Commercial Advancements and Clinical Pipeline
Alnylam remains at the forefront of innovation with its extensive clinical pipeline. A recent highlight includes the announcement of positive initial results from the Phase 1 study of mivelsiran for Alzheimer's disease. Further, Alnylam has initiated a Phase 1 study for ALN-HTT02, aimed at treating Huntington's disease, demonstrating the company’s commitment to advancing therapeutic solutions across multiple disease states.
Strategic Updates and Collaborations
The company has also been actively working on its portfolio prioritization, choosing to suspend clinical development for ALN-KHK, focusing instead on the programs that promise transformative outcomes for patients. Recent collaborations are also expected to boost Alnylam's operational capabilities.
Future Developments and Guidance for 2024
Looking ahead, Alnylam anticipates continued financial growth for the full year 2024, forecasting a range of $1.575 billion to $1.650 billion in combined net product revenues across its portfolio. This optimistic outlook is grounded in the expected market introduction of AMVUTTRA in various regions, anticipated in early 2025 in the U.S. and subsequently in other territories.
Expectations for Research and Development
The research and development sector at Alnylam is also expected to thrive, with GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses projected between $2.000 billion to $2.150 billion for the year. This guidance underscores the company's ongoing commitment to investing in advanced RNAi therapeutics.
