“We are delighted to have ended the year on a strong note, with continued execution across our commercial portfolio delivering top-line product revenue within our guidance range. These preliminary results reflect growing patient demand for our transformative products, along with strong commercial execution by our teams in delivering these important medicines to patients in need globally. We were also pleased to have reported positive clinical results across multiple programs in 2023. This includes zilebesiran, with which we aim to reimagine the treatment of hypertension, and ALN-APP in Alzheimer’s disease, which provided the first ever clinical demonstration of gene silencing in the human brain using an RNAi therapeutic,” said Yvonne Greenstreet, MBChB, Chief Executive Officer of Alnylam. “As we consider the progress we made across our business in 2023 and as we look ahead to reporting results from the HELIOS-B Phase 3 study in early 2024, we believe we are well on our way to achieving our Alnylam P5x25 goals, positioning Alnylam as a top-tier, global, multi-product commercial company with a broad pipeline and organic platform poised to deliver sustainable innovation well into the future, a profile rarely seen in our industry.”

About RNAi Therapeutics
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.
