In addition, Alnylam today reported preliminary fourth quarter and full year 2020 global net product revenues for ONPATTRO and GIVLAARI and provided additional updates on the Company’s commercial launches, including initial OXLUMO demand.

New 5-Year Strategy: P5x25
Alnylam ended last year exceeding all metrics for its Alnylam 2020 strategy, with 4 marketed products (versus 3), 12 clinical programs (versus 10), 6 of which are in late-stage development (versus 4), across 4 strategic therapeutic areas (versus 3).

The Company’s Alnylam P5x25 strategy is aimed at Alnylam’s transition to a top 5 biotech company, as measured by market capitalization, over the next 5 years.

Specifically, the Company intends to end 2025 with the following profile**:

  • Patients: Over 0.5 million on Alnylam RNAi therapeutics globally

  • Products: 6 or more marketed products in rare and prevalent diseases

  • Pipeline: Over 20 clinical programs, with 10 or more in late stages and 4 or more INDs per year

  • Performance: ≥40% revenue CAGR through YE 2025

  • Profitability: Achieve sustainable non-GAAP profitability within the period

"We executed well on our Alnylam 2020 strategy, exceeding all pre-set metrics and transitioning into a global, multi-product commercial company with a robust clinical pipeline and an organic product engine delivering sustainable innovation, a profile that has rarely been achieved in biotech history. It was especially gratifying to cap 2020 with positive Phase 3 HELIOS-A results for vutrisiran, which is set to become our 5th RNAi therapeutic to reach the market, if approved," said John Maraganore, Ph.D., CEO of Alnylam Pharmaceuticals. "We are now thrilled to launch our new chapter with Alnylam P5x25, which is aimed at Alnylam’s planned transition to a top 5 biotech in market capitalization based on a proven and high-yielding technology for disruptive medical innovation and a foundational track record of commercial execution. Indeed, with Alnylam P5x25, we expect to sustainably and organically create and commercialize transformative rare and common disease medicines benefiting hundreds of thousands of patients around the world while delivering strong financial performance and profitability, resulting in a leading biotech profile."

2020 Preliminary Commercial and Financial Performance*
ONPATTRO® (patisiran), a commercial-stage RNAi therapeutic targeting transthyretin (TTR) for the treatment of polyneuropathy in adult patients with hATTR amyloidosis.

  • Preliminary global net product revenues for the fourth quarter and full year 2020 were approximately $90 million and $306 million, respectively.

    • Q4 results represent approximately 10 percent growth compared to Q3 and include 10 percent growth in the U.S. market segment driven by new patient demand.

    • Further, the full year ONPATTRO revenues reached the high end of the previously shared guidance range of $295 million - $310 million and represent over 80 percent growth from full year 2019.

  • As of year-end 2020, about 1,350 patients worldwide were receiving commercial ONPATTRO.

GIVLAARI® (givosiran), a commercial-stage RNAi therapeutic for the treatment of adults with acute hepatic porphyria (AHP).

  • Preliminary global net product revenues for the fourth quarter and full year 2020 were approximately $22 million and $55 million, respectively.

  • As of year-end 2020, the product’s first full year of launch, over 200 patients are receiving commercial drug.

OXLUMO™ (lumasiran), a commercial-stage RNAi therapeutic for the treatment of primary hyperoxaluria type 1 to lower urinary oxalate levels in pediatric and adult patients.

  • For the period following European Medicines Agency (EMA) and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of OXLUMO, in late November 2020, strong initial U.S. demand was observed with 8 Start Forms received through year-end.

  • Preliminary global net product revenues for the fourth quarter were approximately $0.3 million representing initial patient demand in Europe

Finally, the Company today reported that it expects its full year 2020 non-GAAP operating loss to be substantially improved relative to the prior year, marking 2019 as Alnylam’s peak non-GAAP operating loss year as the Company transitions towards a self-sustainable financial profile.

Further, at December 31, 2020, Alnylam had preliminary cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of approximately $1.9 billion, as compared to $1.5 billion at December 31, 2019. The Company balance sheet was strengthened by the 2020 strategic financing collaboration with Blackstone.

"We are extremely pleased with ONPATTRO and GIVLAARI performance in the fourth quarter and cumulatively for the year, reflecting strong commercial execution, a substantial increase in demand and new patient adds, despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, we’re pleased to report that strong top-line revenue growth at the upper end of our guidance range and disciplined R&D and SG&A investments have delivered on a lower non-GAAP operating loss for 2020 compared with the prior year. We believe we’re now firmly on our way toward a self-sustainable financial profile with significant growth from four revenue generating assets and moderated operating expenses, and a balance sheet that supports achievement of profitability without the need to access the equity markets," said Jeff Poulton, Chief Financial Officer of Alnylam. "As we now launch our Alnylam P5x25 strategy, we’re committed to delivering consistently strong financial performance driven by 40% or greater revenue CAGR over the next five years with non-GAAP profitability achieved within the period."

Alnylam management will discuss these preliminary selected financial results and commercial updates during a webcast presentation at the 39th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference tomorrow, Monday, January 11, 2021, at 8:20 a.m. ET.

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