What is Givlaari (givosiran) for?
Givlaari (givosiran) is an aminolevulinate synthase 1-directed small interfering RNA (siRNA) indicated for the treatment of adults and children aged 12 years and older with acute hepatic porphyria (AHP). [1,4]

It is available in single-dose vial form containing 189 mg/ml givosiran.[1]

How does Givlaari (givosiran) work?
AHP is a rare genetic disorder in which one of the enzymes in the heme pathway is not functioning properly. Heme plays an important role in the body, because it helps bind and transport oxygen in the blood. The heme pathway is controlled in the liver by the enzyme aminolevulinate synthase 1 (ALAS1).[2]

Certain triggers can cause ALAS1 levels to increase, and this in turn causes the buildup of neurotoxic molecules called aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and porphobilinogen (PBG). ALA and PBG cause harm to nerve cells, and thereby cause the symptoms and (potentially life-threatening) attacks of AHP.[2] Givosiran is a double-stranded small interfering RNA that reduces levels of ALA and PBG. This helps protect patients against attacks and other symptoms of AHP.[1,2]
