What is Givlaari?

Givlaari is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Givlaari is an aminolevulinate synthase 1-directed small interfering RNA for the treatment of adults with acute hepatic porphyria (AHP).

This approval of Givlaari was based on the results of a clinical trial of 94 patients with acute hepatic porphyria. Patients received a placebo or Givlaari. Givlaari’s performance was measured by the rate of porphyria attacks that needed hospitalizations, urgent health care visits, or an intravenous infusion of hemin at home. Patients who were given Givlaari had 70% fewer porphyria attacks than patients receiving a placebo.

Acute hepatic porphyrias (AHP) includes a family of rare, genetic diseases where there is a defect, or lack of one of the enzymes within the heme biosynthetic pathway in the liver that can result in the accumulation of porphyrins, a heme precursor that can be toxic to the tissues at high levels, and neurotoxic heme intermediates aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and porphobilinogen (PBG). Hepatic porphyrias are comprised of four subtypes which include acute intermittent porphyria (AIP), hereditary coproporphyria (HCP), and variegate porphyria (VP), which are autosomal dominant disorders, and aminolevulinic acid dehydratase deficiency porphyria (ALAD).

What doses of Givlaari are available?

Givlaari is available in injection form, in the following doses: 189 mg/mL in a single-dose vial.

The recommended dose is 2.5 mg/kg once monthly by subcutaneous injection. The dose is based on a patient’s actual body weight.

For additional information, please see the full prescribing information. Always speak with your healthcare professional about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.

Givlaari active ingredients

The active ingredient of Givlaari is givosiran, a double-stranded small interfering RNA that causes the breakdown of the enzyme aminolevulinate synthase 1 (ALAS1) mRNA in hepatocytes through RNA interference. This leads to reduced levels of aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and porphobilinogen (PBG), factors associated with attacks, and other disease manifestations of AHP.

Givlaari side effects

The most common side effects of Givlaari in clinical trials include:

  • Nausea
  • Injection site reactions

In rare instances, Givlaari can cause more serious side effects. These can include:

  • Anaphylactic reaction – if anaphylaxis occurs, discontinue treatment and administer appropriate medical treatment
  • Hepatic toxicity – measure liver function at baseline and periodically during treatment. Interrupt or stop treatment for severe or clinically significant transaminase elevations
  • Renal toxicity – monitor renal function during treatment

Your doctor will assess the benefits of using Givlaari against your risk of side effects. Patients are encouraged to report negative side effects or adverse reactions of Givlaari to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Givlaari drug interactions

Givlaari can interact with other medications. These include:

  • Sensitive CYP1A2 and CYP2D6 Substrates – avoid concomitant use as minimal concentration changes may lead to serious or life-threatening toxicities

This list is not exhaustive and other prescription drugs may interact with Givlaari.
