Alnylam Advances Future of ATTR-CM Care Through Strategic Collaboration with Viz.ai and Support for the American Heart Association

− Efforts Aimed at Facilitating Earlier Diagnosis, Coordinated Care, and Long-Term Patient Impact in ATTR-CM –

− Alnylam to Host TTR Investor Webinar Today at 9:30 am ET –

Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALNY), the leading RNAi therapeutics company, today announced a set of strategic efforts designed to accelerate earlier recognition and improve care coordination for patients with the cardiomyopathy of wild-type or hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (ATTR-CM). Through complementary initiatives with Viz.ai and the American Heart Association, Alnylam is advancing a comprehensive, system‑level approach to address persistent challenges of underdiagnosis and fragmented care in ATTR‑CM.

ATTR‑CM is a rapidly progressive, life‑threatening cause of heart failure that remains significantly underrecognized. Early and accurate diagnosis is critical to enabling access to appropriate management and improving outcomes. Despite advances in treatment, many patients remain undiagnosed for years, preventing access to necessary care. Alnylam aims to move ATTR-CM diagnosis upstream, accelerating earlier identification and enabling health systems to deliver consistent, high‑quality patient care at scale.

"As a cardiologist, I've seen firsthand the devastating impact of diagnosing ATTR‑CM too late," said Sameer Bansilal, M.D., M.S., Vice President, Global TTR Medical Lead, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals. "This is a progressive disease where timing truly matters – earlier recognition can fundamentally change a patient's course of disease. Alnylam's leadership in ATTR amyloidosis is grounded not only in deep science, a robust R&D program, and strong clinical evidence, but in a commitment to enduring impact – improving how this disease is identified and managed in real-world care. By working with leading health systems, technology innovators, and national clinical organizations, Alnylam is dedicated to building the infrastructure needed to diagnose ATTR-CM earlier and deliver more coordinated care."

Strengthening Detection and Care Coordination for ATTR-CM in Collaboration with Viz.ai

Alnylam is partnering with Viz.ai, the leader in artificial intelligence (AI)-powered disease detection and care coordination, to develop an AI-enabled ATTR-CM care pathway designed to help clinicians identify patients earlier in the course of disease and guide appropriate diagnostic evaluation and referral. The pathway combines a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared echocardiography AI algorithm, Us2.ai, with electronic health record connectivity and integration into routine clinical practice to support earlier recognition of ATTR-CM and facilitate coordinated care across cardiology and heart failure teams.

The collaboration includes the AI-Enhanced Echocardiography Workflow to Advance Recognition and Diagnosis of Cardiac Amyloidosis (AWARE) study – one of the first multi-system prospective implementation studies designed to evaluate how AI-enabled screening can be integrated into routine clinical workflows and assess its impact on diagnostic timelines, care coordination, and clinical decision-making in ATTR-CM. While AI technologies hold significant promise for improving disease detection, implementation and adoption within real-world clinical settings remain a key challenge, and the AWARE study is intended to help address this barrier by evaluating practical approaches to integrating AI tools into existing care pathways.

The initiative will launch at five pilot health systems later this year, representing a diverse set of clinical settings, with the goal of generating real-world evidence to inform broader, scalable adoption across health systems in the Viz.ai network.

"When ATTR‑CM is identified late, patients face the risk of disease progression and poorer outcomes," said Tim Showalter, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, Viz.ai. "By embedding AI‑driven detection into everyday clinical workflows and pairing it with coordinated care pathways, this collaboration focuses on closing the gap between the first clinical signal and meaningful clinical action, so more patients are identified and connected to care sooner before irreversible damage has occurred."

Improving Systems of Care for ATTR-CM by Supporting the American Heart Association

Complementing AI-enabled diagnostic technology, Alnylam is supporting a national effort focused on strengthening systems of care for people living with ATTR‑CM, led by the American Heart Association, an organization devoted to changing the future to a world of healthier lives for all.

The three-year initiative will convene a 10-site cohort of multidisciplinary health systems in a national learning collaborative designed to identify gaps in care, share best practices, and scale effective models for diagnosing and managing ATTR-CM. Participating centers will evaluate current practice pathways across diagnosis, referral, treatment, and follow-up in order to improve coordinated care and optimize patient outcomes. Insights generated through the program will be disseminated nationally to help improve care delivery and outcomes for patients with ATTR‑CM. This work will amplify proven, replicable models of excellence with the goal of enabling a stronger, more integrated system of care for patients nationwide.

Alnylam is a proud supporter of the American Heart Association's ATTR-CM Discovery Initiative: Improving the System of Care Across the ATTR Patient Journey.

Shaping the Future of ATTR-CM Care

Together, these efforts reflect Alnylam's leadership in redefining how ATTR‑CM is identified and managed, by shifting diagnosis earlier, strengthening care pathways, and enabling more consistent, coordinated care at scale. By investing in AI‑enabled detection, real‑world evidence, and system‑level partnerships, Alnylam aims to address the root causes of underdiagnosis and fragmentation and help ensure that patients are identified at a point when intervention may make the greatest difference.

Alnylam leadership will discuss these initiatives and how the Company is shaping the future of ATTR-CM care in a webinar today at 9:30 am ET. The webinar can be accessed on the Investors section of the Company's website at www.alnylam.com/events. An archived webcast will be available on the Alnylam website approximately two hours after the event.

About Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTR)

Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is an underdiagnosed, rapidly progressive, debilitating and fatal disease caused by misfolded transthyretin (TTR) proteins, which accumulate as amyloid deposits in various parts of the body, including the nerves, heart, and gastrointestinal tract. Patients may present with polyneuropathy, cardiomyopathy, or both manifestations of disease. There are two different forms of ATTR – hereditary ATTR (hATTR), which is caused by a TTR gene variant, and wild-type ATTR (wtATTR), which occurs without a TTR gene variant. It is estimated that 350,000 people worldwide live with ATTR, although ~80% remain undiagnosed.

About RNAi

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.
