“Over the first half of this year, we continued to deliver on our goal to bring a steady cadence of medicines to people with serious diseases. The WAINUA launch for hereditary ATTR polyneuropathy – ATTRv-PN – continues to progress well with AstraZeneca. QALSODY is now approved in the EU, expanding the number of patients who can benefit from the first approved treatment for a genetic form of ALS. And we are well positioned for our first independent launch with olezarsen, which was accepted for Priority Review with a December FDA action date for people with familial chylomicronemia syndrome, or FCS, a serious and rare disease with no approved treatments in the U.S. Additionally, we completed enrollment in our Phase 3 olezarsen program for the much larger severe hypertriglyceridemia – sHTG – patient population, keeping us on track for data in the second half of next year. And based on recent positive Phase 3 results, we believe donidalorsen, our second planned independent U.S. launch, is positioned to be a preferred choice for people with hereditary angioedema, or HAE. We also advanced our next wave of potentially transformational medicines, including announcing plans to independently advance ION582 into a Phase 3 study next year, based on positive data in Angelman syndrome; this program is poised to become the cornerstone of our robust wholly owned neurology pipeline. Our recent achievements, together with multiple upcoming catalysts, position Ionis to deliver next-level value for all stakeholders,” said Brett Monia, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Ionis.
