Vutrisiran |
Vutrisiran is covalently linked to a ligand containing three N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residues to enable delivery of the siRNA to hepatocytes. Through a natural process called RNA interference (RNAi), vutrisiran causes the catalytic degradation of TTR mRNA in the liver, resulting in the reduction of variant and wild-type serum TTR protein levels. |
