Givosiran in acute intermittent porphyria: A personalized medicine approach

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2022
In patients with acute intermittent porphyria (AIP), induction of delta aminolevulinic acid synthase 1 (ALAS1) leads to haem precursor accumulation that may cause recurring acute attacks. In a recent phase III trial, givosiran significantly reduced the attack rate in severe AIP patients.

Givosiran for the treatment of acute hepatic porphyria

Expert Review of Clinical Pharmacology, 2022
Acute hepatic porphyrias (AHPs) are a family of rare inherited disorders characterized by enzyme dysfunctions in the hepatic pathway of heme biosynthesis. In AHPs, accumulation of the neurotoxic porphyrin precursors delta-aminolevulinic acid and porphobilinogen, caused by enhanced activity of hepatic aminolevulinate synthase 1 (ALAS1), is associated ...

Givosiran: First Approval

Drugs, 2020
Givosiran (Givlaari™) is an aminolevulinate synthase 1 (ALAS1)-directed small interfering RNA (siRNA) covalently linked to a ligand to enable specific delivery of the siRNA to hepatocytes. This results in downregulation of ALAS1 mRNA and prevents accumulation of neurotoxic δ-aminolevulinic acid and porphobilinogen levels that are associated with acute ...

Givosiran to treat acute porphyria

Drugs of Today, 2021
Porphyrias are a family of rare diseases chiefly due to inborn errors of heme biosynthesis. The porphyrias are generally characterized either by the main site of overproduction of heme precursors (hepatic or erythropoietic) or the main clinical manifestations (acute or cutaneous). The regulation of 5- (or δ)-aminolevulinic acid synthase 1 (ALAS1) plays

Givosiran: A Review in Acute Hepatic Porphyria

Drugs, 2021
Givosiran (Givlaari®) is an δ-aminolevulinic acid synthase 1 (ALAS1)-directed small interfering RNA (siRNA) approved for the treatment of acute hepatic porphyria (AHP). In the phase 3 ENVISION trial, givosiran significantly reduced the annualized rate of composite porphyria attacks (i.e.

Population Pharmacokinetic Analysis of the RNAi Therapeutic Givosiran in Patients with Acute Hepatic Porphyria

Clinical Pharmacokinetics, 2023
Givosiran, approved for the treatment of acute hepatic porphyria (AHP), is the first subcutaneously administered RNAi therapeutic. This analysis was undertaken to describe the plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of givosiran and its active metabolite, AS(N-1)3' givosiran, and to identify factors that contribute to intersubject PK variability.A population PK ...
