Patisiran, sold under the brand name Onpattro, is a medication for the treatment of polyneuropathy in people with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis. Hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis is a fatal rare disease that is estimated to affect 50,000 people worldwide.[1]

It is the first small interfering RNA-based drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the first drug approved by the FDA to treat this condition.[1] It is a gene silencing drug that interferes with the production of an abnormal form of transthyretin.[2] Patisiran utilizes a novel approach to target and reduce production of the TTR protein in the liver via the RNAi pathway.[3]

Patisiran was developed and is marketed by Alnylam.[4] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers it to be a first-in-class medication.[5]

Global use

As of 2020, there were 1050 patients globally receiving Onpattro, generating $65.5M in net-revenues for Alnylam Pharmaceuticals.[6][7]

History

Patisiran was granted orphan drug status, fast track designation, priority review and breakthrough therapy designation due to its novel mechanism and the rarity of the condition it treats.[8][9] It was approved for medical use in the United States and in the European Union in August 2018.[10][11] The per-patient cost is between US$451,430 and US$677,145 per year, depending on the number of vials needed.[12][13][14]
