Sustainable Value and Significant Impact

We believe it is our responsibility to push the boundaries of scientific discovery, clinical development, and delivery to fuel significant, sustainable patient impact.

  • We make decisions for as many people who can benefit from the potential of our medicines.
  • We believe we have an obligation to commit resources that promote diversity of clinical trials, ensure equitable access, and empower individuals with choice.
  • We act with purposeful urgency to expand our geographic reach and enable sustainable access pathways.

Connecting to Achieve Better Outcomes

We believe that together with partners in the healthcare ecosystem, we can reduce barriers to our medicines to improve outcomes for all stakeholders in the patient journey – most importantly, for the patients who may benefit from them.

  • We believe biopharmaceutical companies must address access and improve outcomes from the time of drug discovery.
  • We recognize that a patient’s ability to access and afford our medicines is complex, and we commit to continuing our legacy of value-centric solutions.
  • We seek to remove barriers within our control to enable patients to receive care in convenient settings.

Proactive and Accountable

We believe that biopharmaceutical companies play a critical role in the patient’s journey to accessing innovative therapeutic options and should be accountable for progress.

  • We aim to create compliant solutions that are designed to empower patients to feel confident throughout their treatment journey.
  • We advocate for policies, technology and evidence to promote innovation and reduce the time for approved treatments to reach patients.
  • We partner with others for the sake of science and the good of patients, committed to the continuous evolution that began before we launched the world’s first RNAi therapeutic and will endure for as long as we are Alnylam.

Patient Access Programs Supporting Patients Throughout the Treatment Journey

Through various programs, we provide patients with access to diagnostic resources and genetic testing with the goal of removing barriers for patients to access to our commercially available therapies. In addition, we enable access to our investigational drugs for treatment outside clinical trials when no comparable or satisfactory alternative therapy options are available.

Our key programs include:

  • Alnylam Act® offers eligible patients in the U.S., Canada, and Brazil no-charge, third-party genetic testing and counseling.*
  • GeneAct™ offers third-party genetic testing in selected countries across Europe and Middle East.*
  • Alnylam’s Compassionate Use Policy outlines the circumstances in which we will consider providing treatment for an individual patient outside a clinical trial. We evaluate all requests in a fair and equitable manner.
  • Since Alnylam’s first commercial launch in 2018, Alnylam Assist® has supported patients throughout their journey, offering best-in-class patient support services. Staffed by Alnylam employees solely dedicated to supporting patients and providers in our disease states, this model has enabled our team to develop a deep understanding of the patient journey and expertly manage treatment initiation, access and reimbursement, and financial assistance.
