Overview

Revusiran is a first-generation, chemically synthesized double-stranded small interfering RNA (siRNA) therapeutic designed to target transthyretin (TTR) mRNA in the liver, thereby reducing the production of both wild-type and mutant TTR protein. It is conjugated to a triantennary N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) ligand for targeted delivery to hepatocytes via asialoglycoprotein receptors. Revusiran was developed for the treatment of hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (hATTR amyloidosis), particularly with cardiomyopathy manifestations. The drug demonstrated potent knockdown of serum TTR levels in clinical studies but was discontinued after phase 3 trials due to an imbalance in mortality observed among treated patients compared with placebo[2][3][5][6].
