The FDA has approved vutrisiran (Amvuttra – Alnylam), a subcutaneously injected small interfering RNA (siRNA), to reduce cardiovascular hospitalizations, urgent heart failure visits, and cardiovascular death in adults with wild-type or variant transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). Vutrisiran is the first siRNA to be approved in the US for this indication; it was approved earlier for treatment of polyneuropathy associated with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis.
