Amvuttra Approved for Rare Genetic Disorder

June 13, 2022

Amvuttra™ (vutrisiran) has been approved to treat polyneuropathy of hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis in adults.

  • A rapidly progressing disease with a poor prognosis, hATTR causes abnormal proteins to accumulate in the body’s tissues. This can lead to neuropathy, which occurs when damage or dysfunction of the nerves leads to numbness, tingling, weakness, and pain.
  • Recommended dosing for Amvuttra is 25mg administered via subcutaneous injection by a healthcare professional once every three months.
  • Manufacturer Alnylam Pharmaceuticals has launched Amvuttra at a wholesale acquisition cost (WAC) of $115,875 per syringe.
