CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALNY), a leading RNAi therapeutics company, today reported its consolidated financial results for the second quarter 2013, and company highlights.
“This was an exceptional, data-rich quarter and recent period for Alnylam, where we reported positive clinical results from multiple ‘Alnylam 5x15’ programs. First, we presented positive interim data from our Phase II multi-dose trial of ALN-TTR02, where we showed up to 93% knockdown of circulating wild-type and mutant TTR in ATTR patients. In the coming weeks we plan to have patients treated in this Phase II study roll over into an open-label extension study, which will include a number of clinical endpoint measurements with initial data expected to be presented in 2014. We also remain on track to start a Phase III pivotal trial for ALN-TTR02 by the end of 2013,” said John Maraganore, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Alnylam. “In addition, we were excited to report positive top-line results from our Phase I clinical study of ALN-TTRsc, a subcutaneously administered RNAi therapeutic targeting TTR for the treatment of ATTR. Specifically, we reported that ALN-TTRsc achieved greater than 80% knockdown of serum TTR and was generally safe and well tolerated. Importantly, we believe these clinical results establish human translation for RNAi therapeutics using our GalNAc-siRNA conjugate delivery platform, with implications for the entirety of our ‘Alnylam 5x15’ pre-clinical pipeline, which employs what is now a clinically validated subcutaneous delivery approach. With these recent advances, we believe that we are building a compelling opportunity for shareholder value creation with a modular and reproducible approach for development and, ultimately, commercialization of innovative medicines for genetically defined diseases.”
“In addition to the positive clinical data we reported recently, we were also pleased to report promising pre-clinical data, including key proof-of-concept data, from multiple ‘Alnylam 5x15’ programs. In our ALN-AT3 hemophilia program, we presented a robust set of data at the ISTH meeting – including results in multiple models of hemophilia – that highlight the potential and the innovative nature of this program. Notably, we demonstrated that subcutaneous administration of ALN-AT3 can fully normalize thrombin generation in a non-human primate hemophilia ‘inhibitor’ model, an important finding as thrombin generation is closely correlated with degree of disease severity in hemophilia patients. Certain IND-enabling pre-clinical and CMC work is being completed for this program resulting in a one quarter shift in timelines, and we now expect to file an IND for ALN-AT3 in the fourth quarter of 2013 and to initiate our Phase I clinical trial in early 2014,” said Barry Greene, President and Chief Operating Officer of Alnylam. “In addition, we presented key proof-of-concept data with ALN-AS1, an RNAi therapeutic targeting ALAS-1 for the treatment of porphyria, and introduced ALN-CC5, an RNAi therapeutic targeting complement component C5 for the treatment of complement-mediated diseases. Both of these programs use our GalNAc-siRNA conjugate approach enabling subcutaneous dosing with a wide therapeutic index, and we expect to nominate development candidates for both programs by year’s end. At our recent R&D Day, we also reported new pre-clinical data in our PCSK9 program – which is partnered with The Medicines Company – using our GalNAc-siRNA conjugate platform, showing potent and robust PCSK9 knockdown and LDL-c lowering with subcutaneous dosing. All told, we are very pleased with the progress we are making in executing on our ‘Alnylam 5x15’ product strategy, with the goal of bringing innovative medicines to patients.”
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Total Marketable Securities
At
June 30, 2013, Alnylam had cash, cash equivalents and total marketable
securities of $379.5 million, as compared to $226.2 million at December
31, 2012.
Net Loss
The net loss according to accounting principles
generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP) for the second quarter of 2013 was
$18.2 million, or $0.29 per share on both a basic and diluted basis
(including $3.4 million, or $0.05 per share of non-cash stock-based
compensation expense), as compared to a net loss of $13.0 million, or
$0.25 per share on both a basic and diluted basis (including $3.1
million, or $0.06 per share of non-cash stock-based compensation
expense), for the same period in the previous year.
Revenues
Revenues were $8.7 million for the second quarter
of 2013, as compared to $20.9 million for the same period last year.
Revenues for the second quarter of 2013 included $5.5 million of
revenues from the company’s alliance with Takeda Pharmaceuticals Company
Limited, $1.4 million of revenues related to the company’s collaboration
with Monsanto, and $1.8 million for the company’s alliance with The
Medicines Company, research reagent licenses, and other sources. For the
remainder of 2013, the company expects net revenues from research
collaborations to remain consistent with the amount recorded in the
second quarter.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development
(R&D) expenses were $24.2 million in the second quarter of 2013, which
included $2.2 million of non-cash stock-based compensation, as compared
to $21.7 million in the second quarter of 2012, which included $2.0
million of non-cash stock-based compensation. The increase in R&D
expenses in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the prior year
period was due primarily to higher clinical trial and manufacturing
expenses related to the company’s ALN-TTR02 and ALN-TTRsc programs. In
addition, external services expenses increased, due primarily to higher
pre-clinical expenses for the company’s ALN-TTR and ALN-AT3 programs,
which were advanced further in development. Partially offsetting these
increases were license fees due to certain entities related to our
delivery and platform technologies that were expensed in 2012. Alnylam
expects that R&D expenses will increase moderately for the second half
of 2013.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and
administrative (G&A) expenses were $5.8 million in the second quarter of
2013, which included $1.2 million of non-cash stock-based compensation,
as compared to $11.2 million in the second quarter of 2012, which
included $1.1 million of non-cash stock-based compensation. The decrease
in G&A expenses for the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the prior
year period was due primarily to a decrease in consulting and
professional services related to business and legal activities. Alnylam
expects that G&A expenses will remain consistent for the second half of
2013.
Investment in Regulus Therapeutics
Equity in loss of joint
venture was zero for the second quarter of 2013 and $1.1 million for the
second quarter of 2012. The prior year equity in loss of joint venture
was related to the company’s share of the net losses incurred by
Regulus. The company no longer uses the equity method to account for its
investment in Regulus because it no longer has significant influence
over the operating and financial policies of Regulus. The company now
accounts for its investment in Regulus at fair value by adjusting the
value to reflect fluctuations in Regulus’ stock price each reporting
period. At June 30, 2013, the fair market value of the company’s
investment in Regulus was $60.3 million as compared to $38.7 million at
December 31, 2012.
Interest Income
Interest income was $0.3 million for the
second quarter of 2013 and 2012.
Benefit from Income Taxes
The company had a benefit from
income taxes of $2.9 million for the second quarter of 2013 as compared
to zero in the second quarter of 2012. The income tax benefit is
associated with the corresponding increase in the value of the company’s
investment in Regulus that the company recorded in other comprehensive
income, net of tax.
2013 Financial Guidance
The company expects that its cash,
cash equivalents and total marketable securities balance will be greater
than $320 million at December 31, 2013.
“Alnylam continues to maintain a solid balance sheet, ending this second quarter with $380 million in cash,” said Michael Mason, Vice President, Finance and Treasurer of Alnylam. “We remain on track to end 2013 with greater than $320 million, which will continue to provide us with a strong balance sheet to execute on our business plan and advance our RNAi therapeutics through clinical trials and toward the market.”
Second Quarter 2013 and Recent Significant Corporate Highlights
Key “Alnylam 5x15” Program Highlights
- Reported Positive Phase II Data for ALN-TTR02, an RNAi Therapeutic Targeting Transthyretin (TTR) for the Treatment of TTR-Mediated Amyloidosis (ATTR). Interim results from a Phase II study showed that multiple doses of ALN-TTR02, an intravenously delivered RNAi therapeutic, led to robust and statistically significant (p<0.001) knockdown of serum TTR protein levels of up to 93%. Knockdown of TTR, the disease-causing protein in ATTR, was found to be rapid, dose dependent, and durable, with similar activity observed toward both wild-type and mutant protein. In addition, ALN-TTR02 was found to be generally safe and well tolerated in this study. The Phase II study has nearly completed enrollment with about 30 patients, and Alnylam intends to present the final data from this study at the IXth International Symposium on Familial Amyloidotic Polyneuropathy (ISFAP) to be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, November 10 – 13, 2013. In addition, the company remains on track to initiate in mid-2013 an open-label extension (OLE) study of ALN-TTR02 for patients treated in the Phase II study. The OLE study will include a number of clinical endpoint measures including Neuropathy Impairment Score, or “NIS,” and initial data are expected to be presented in 2014. Furthermore, the company intends to start a Phase III pivotal trial for ALN-TTR02 in FAP patients by the end of 2013.
- Announced Top-Line Phase I Results for ALN-TTRsc, a Subcutaneously Administered RNAi Therapeutic Targeting TTR for the Treatment of ATTR. ALN-TTRsc achieved robust and statistically significant (p<0.01) knockdown of serum TTR protein levels of greater than 80% in healthy volunteer subjects, in line with results previously reported in non-human primates. In addition, ALN-TTRsc was found to be generally safe and well tolerated. These top-line human study results are the first to be reported for Alnylam’s proprietary GalNAc-siRNA conjugate delivery platform, enabling subcutaneous dosing of RNAi therapeutics with a wide therapeutic index. Full results from the Phase I study will be presented at the Annual Scientific Meeting of the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA), being held September 22 – 25, 2013 in Orlando, Fla.
- Advanced ALN-AT3, a Subcutaneously Administered RNAi Therapeutic Targeting Antithrombin (AT) for the Treatment of Hemophilia and Rare Bleeding Disorders (RBD), Toward Investigational New Drug (IND) Filing. Alnylam presented new pre-clinical data with ALN-AT3 at the XXIV Congress of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) that was held June 29 – July 4, 2013 in Amsterdam. The new pre-clinical results demonstrated that ALN-AT3 can normalize thrombin generation and improve hemostasis in hemophilia mice and fully correct thrombin generation in a non-human primate (NHP) hemophilia “inhibitor” model. In addition, the company presented results of tolerability studies that support a broad therapeutic index for ALN-AT3 in the hemophilia setting. Alnylam is completing a number of IND-enabling pre-clinical and CMC studies, and now expects a one quarter shift in the program timeline, resulting in the filing of an IND in the fourth quarter of 2013 and initiation of a Phase I clinical trial in early 2014.
- Advanced ALN-AS1, a Subcutaneously Administered RNAi Therapeutic Targeting Aminolevulinic Acid Synthase-1 (ALAS-1), for the Treatment of Porphyria. New pre-clinical data in rodent models of acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) were presented at the International Congress of Porphyrins and Porphyrias, which was held May 16 – 18, 2013 in Lucerne, Switzerland. Results demonstrated that RNAi therapeutics targeting ALAS-1 can completely block the abnormal production of toxic intermediates of the heme biosynthesis pathway that cause the symptoms and disease pathology of AIP. The new research results support the advancement of RNAi therapeutics as a promising strategy for the prevention and/or treatment of acute attacks in patients with AIP. The company is on track to designate a GalNAc-siRNA development candidate, ALN-AS1, in late 2013 and plans to file an IND in 2014.
- Designated ALN-CC5, a Subcutaneously Administered RNAi Therapeutic Targeting Complement Component C5 for the Treatment of Complement-Mediated Diseases, as a New “Alnylam 5x15” program. Alnylam presented pre-clinical data with ALN-CC5 at the 6th International Conference on Complement Therapeutics that was held June 18 – 23, 2013 in Kos, Greece. The new research demonstrated potent, dose-dependent, and durable RNAi-mediated knockdown of serum C5 and inhibition of complement-mediated hemolytic activity of approximately 90%. The complement system plays a central role in immunity as a protective mechanism for host defense, but its dysregulation results in life-threatening complications in a broad range of human diseases including paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome (aHUS), neuromyelitis optica, amongst others. C5, which is predominantly expressed in liver cells, is a genetically and clinically validated target; loss-of-function human mutations are associated with an attenuated immune response against certain infections, and intravenous anti-C5 monoclonal antibody therapy has demonstrated clinical activity and tolerability in a number of complement-mediated diseases. A subcutaneously administered RNAi therapeutic that silences C5 represents a novel approach to the treatment of complement-mediated diseases. The company is performing additional optimization of the current GalNAc-siRNA conjugate lead molecule and expects to nominate its ALN-CC5 development candidate in late 2013.
- Advanced Additional “Alnylam 5x15” Programs. Alnylam continued to advance additional programs as part of its “Alnylam 5x15” product strategy, including ALN-PCS, an RNAi therapeutic targeting PCSK9 for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia; ALN-TMP, an RNAi therapeutic targeting TMPRSS6 for the treatment of beta-thalassemia and iron-overload disorders; and ALN-AAT, an RNAi therapeutic targeting alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) for the treatment of liver disease associated with AAT deficiency. At its recent R&D Day, the company provided an update from its ALN-PCS program, which is partnered with The Medicines Company, showing pre-clinical results with a GalNAc-siRNA conjugate targeting PCSK9 (ALN-PCSsc) that enables subcutaneous dose administration. Specifically, in non-human primate studies performed in the absence of concomitant statin therapy, ALN-PCSsc showed greater than 80% knockdown of plasma PCSK9 with greater than 50% reductions in LDL-c.

About RNA Interference (RNAi)
RNAi (RNA interference) is a
revolution in biology, representing a breakthrough in understanding how
genes are turned on and off in cells, and a completely new approach to
drug discovery and development. Its discovery has been heralded as “a
major scientific breakthrough that happens once every decade or so,” and
represents one of the most promising and rapidly advancing frontiers in
biology and drug discovery today which was awarded the 2006 Nobel Prize
for Physiology or Medicine. RNAi is a natural process of gene silencing
that occurs in organisms ranging from plants to mammals. By harnessing
the natural biological process of RNAi occurring in our cells, the
creation of a major new class of medicines, known as RNAi therapeutics,
is on the horizon. Small interfering RNA (siRNA), the molecules that
mediate RNAi and comprise Alnylam’s RNAi therapeutic platform, target
the cause of diseases by potently silencing specific mRNAs, thereby
preventing disease-causing proteins from being made. RNAi therapeutics
have the potential to treat disease and help patients in a fundamentally
new way.

About “Alnylam 5x15™”
The “Alnylam 5x15” strategy, launched
in January 2011, establishes a path for development and
commercialization of novel RNAi therapeutics toward genetically defined
targets for the treatment of diseases with high unmet medical need.
Products arising from this initiative share several key characteristics
including: a genetically defined target and disease; the potential to
have a major impact in a high unmet need population; the ability to
leverage the existing Alnylam RNAi delivery platform; the opportunity to
monitor an early biomarker in Phase I clinical trials for human proof of
concept; and the existence of clinically relevant endpoints for the
filing of a new drug application (NDA) with a focused patient database
and possible accelerated paths for commercialization. By the end of
2015, the company expects to have five such RNAi therapeutic programs in
clinical development, including programs in advanced stages, on its own
or with a partner. The “Alnylam 5x15” programs include: ALN-TTR02, an
intravenously delivered RNAi therapeutic targeting transthyretin (TTR)
for the treatment of TTR-mediated amyloidosis (ATTR) in patients with
familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP); ALN-TTRsc, a subcutaneously
delivered RNAi therapeutic targeting TTR for the treatment of ATTR in
patients with familial amyloidotic cardiomyopathy (FAC); ALN-AT3, an
RNAi therapeutic targeting antithrombin (AT) for the treatment of
hemophilia and rare bleeding disorders (RBD); ALN-AS1, an RNAi
therapeutic targeting aminolevulinate synthase-1 (ALAS-1) for the
treatment of porphyria including acute intermittent porphyria (AIP);
ALN-PCS, an RNAi therapeutic targeting PCSK9 for the treatment of
hypercholesterolemia; ALN-TMP, an RNAi therapeutic targeting TMPRSS6 for
the treatment of beta-thalassemia and iron-overload disorders; ALN-AAT,
an RNAi therapeutic targeting alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) for the
