Thanks, Christine, and thank you, everyone, for joining the call today. The first quarter of 2026 demonstrated continued strength across the business and represents the type of execution that will drive continued growth at our Nylon. Our leadership in TTR amyloidosis was on display, having achieved over $900 million in total net revenues from VUTRA and Onpatro combined. We also entered into exciting new collaborations that we expect to drive TTR disease awareness and diagnosis and improve overall care pathways for patients. On the R&D side, we continue to progress our deep pipeline of investigational medicines, including the presentation of impactful data for vitrethran and darbisran at ACC. We also initiated a phase one trial of ALN2232, which is our first adipose-directed RNAi therapeutic and targets ACVR1C. And on the financial front, the more than $1 billion in combined net product revenues generated in Q1 marks our NILAM's first quarter, exceeding this threshold in our history, an important milestone. We're also reiterating our four-year financial guidance, reflecting continued confidence in the Ambutra CM launch and the strength of our overall portfolio. Our lineup stands apart in biotech with a differentiated model built on a proven, durable innovation engine and strong commercial execution, positioning us for sustained long-term growth. As the leader in RNAi therapeutics, we've established a modular, reproducible approach to drug development and a product engine that has consistently translated scientific innovation into successful medicines. This high yielding platform, combined with our outsized historical probability of success relative to the industry, will be key to driving future growth. That capability is reflected in a deep pipeline of more than 25 programs currently in clinical development with continued expansion into new indications and therapeutic areas along with and evolving platform capabilities. Lastly, today, there are six R&D invented medicines that are collectively generating several billion dollars in annual revenues, reaching hundreds of thousands of patients around the world. My colleagues will outline for you the commercial, R&D, and financial progress we made in the first quarter of 2026. All of this progress builds our momentum towards accelerating innovation and scaling our impact as we look to deliver on our recently announced five-year vision, our NILM 2030. These ambitions are anchored in three strategic pillars. The first is to establish global leadership in TTR while continuing to build a doable franchise. Our second pillar focuses on growing through sustainable innovation, where we aim to deliver therapies that not only slow the progression of disease, but prevent, halt, or reverse it. And the third pillar is scaling with discipline and agility to enable durable, profitable growth. Taken together, our Nylon 2030 represents our strategy to become the leading science-driven, fully integrated global biopharmaceutical company and to maximize the potential of RNAi therapeutics for patients. With that, let me now turn the call over to Tolga for a review of our first quarter commercial performance. Tolga.

Thanks, Ivan, and good morning. I'm pleased to share our continued progress in bringing alnylam's therapies to patients globally. Q1 was another strong quarter of commercial execution and marked our first quarter exceeding $1 billion in product revenue. Specifically, we delivered $1 billion and $36 million in combined net product revenues, up 121% year over year, and 4% over Q4 2025. While our TTR franchise continues to be our primary growth engine, we continue to see consistently strong performance in our rare disease business. So let's start there. Our rare disease portfolio continues to deliver meaningful impact for patients and consistent performance for our business. We generated $126 million in rare disease net revenue, up 15% year over year. Growth was driven by increased patient demand, partially offset by higher gross net deductions across U.S. and international markets. Now, turning to our TTR franchise. One year into the ATTR-CM launch, Amutra continues to show strong momentum. Global TTR net revenues reached $910 million in Q1, up 6% from Q4, and 153% year-over-year. In the U.S., TTR revenues grew 9% versus Q4, and more than 230% year-over-year, reflecting continued growth in patient demand. The $59 million in U.S. revenue growth over Q4 was achieved despite fewer Q1 shipping weeks and customary insurance reauthorization dynamics earlier in the year. Anticipated headwinds that we shared with you on our February earnings call access remained broad pull through was strong and adherence exceeded 90 percent outside the u.s revenues declined seven million dollars from q4 primarily reflecting our previously announced updated pricing in germany following the attr cm launch but grew 35 percent year over year Importantly, international TTR revenue outperformed our Q1 expectations shared in February, primarily due to continued strength in Japan, where our CM launch execution remains on track with leading analogs, as well as strength in PN performance across our international markets. This strength provided more balance to the quarter than anticipated, as we did see the expected headwinds from the price adjustment in Germany. We remain confident in our 2026 TTR revenue guidance as we continue to expect more substantial quarter-over-quarter growth in TTR revenues, both in the U.S. and across the world, over the balance of the year. As we move into the next phase of U.S. ATTR-CM launch, our focus is grounded in the strong foundation established in 2025. First, physician preference and utilization. Amutra's clinical profile has driven a strong and compelling first-line positioning with strong preference demonstrated by physicians who have experience using it. Second, access and affordability. Our access is improved versus 2025 and continues to be durable with over 90% of patients covered with first-line access and most facing zero in-out-of-pocket costs. Third, site-of-care infrastructure. We built a robust provider network designed to deliver a seamless patient experience. These fundamentals enabled a highly differentiated launch with rapid uptake and strong utilization across lines of therapy. Importantly, our initial success has shown that physician experience with Amvutra leads to deeper and sustained use over time. As highlighted during our TTR Investor event, moving forward, we're focused on the following three indicators of continued launch success. First, prescriber-based expansion. We've already built a large and expanding base with more than 1,200 unique new U.S. prescribers since last March. When we look at prescribing trends on an individual healthcare professional basis, we generally see that initial utilization of Ambutra by a new prescriber is relatively balanced between first and second lines of therapy. Second line use is being driven primarily by moving that prescriber's existing base of patients, progressing on stabilizer onto Ambutra, either a switch or combo therapy. Over time, as the existing base of stabilizer patients is transitioned, we generally see that prescribers' new second-line scripts reduce to a normalized level. Importantly, healthcare professionals' experience with Amutra breeds a greater number and proportion of new scripts in the first-line setting. So experience with Amutra has translated into durable preference, and we also see significant opportunity coming from expanding the number of prescribers. We will do this by increasing engagement with physicians who don't yet have experience with Ambutra, reinforcing the role of Ambutra across the full patient journey, and maintaining seamless patient access. Second, sustained category growth. ATTR-CM remains significantly underdiagnosed and undertreated with an estimated 200 000 patients in the u.s and more than 80 percent still untreated we are addressing this gap directly as part of our ttr leadership agenda advancing practical ai enabled partnerships to facilitate earlier diagnosis and treatment collaborations with visa ai and others as well as support for an initiative with american Heart Association are embedding AI diagnostics into real-world care pathways, expanding patient identification, and accelerating access to therapy. Third, adherence and persistence supported by quarterly dosing and actual patient adherence. Pushka will share some more color in a moment, but recently presented real-world data demonstrate greater than 90% adherence to Wutrisiran over more than a two-year period. This profile translates into sustained benefit for patients and by extension into sustained revenue, which is central to any long-term growth outlook. Alayum's global footprint is enabling strong execution on international market access for Amutra, reflected in a series of positive reimbursement milestones across key markets. In Europe, we're seeing favorable health technology assessment outcomes, and reimbursement momentum, including recent launches in Austria, the UK, Switzerland and Italy, supporting broader patient eligibility and more streamlined treatment pathways. Taken together, these developments reinforce the growing global recognition of the value of Almutra and positions as well to expand patient reach around the world. With that, I'll turn things over to Pushkol.

Thank you, Tolga, and good morning, everyone. Alnylam undoubtedly has one of the most robust pipelines in biotech, with over 25 clinical programs spanning multiple therapeutic areas across rare, specialty, and prevalent indications, representing a tremendous opportunity to improve patient health and create value in the years ahead. Over the next few moments, I'll double-click on some of these programs to highlight some key near-term value drivers in the pipeline. In support of our ongoing efforts to demonstrate AMVUTRA's unique profile that we believe supports first-line use, we shared new data on the drug's impact on patients with ATTR-CM at the recent American College of Cardiology annual meeting. As Tolga briefly mentioned, a retrospective cohort study of approximately four years of real-world data in patients with transdiretin-mediated amyloidosis indicated high adherence and persistence to Vutrisiran treatment. Over the treatment period, greater than 93% of patients were adherent to Vutrisiran, defined as 80% or more days covered by Vutrisiran, and over 85% remained on therapy for more than a year. These data stand in contrast to the low adherence and persistence we've seen with many oral therapies and support the potential for Vutrisiran's clinical trial benefits to translate into a real-world setting. In another analysis, we looked at diastolic dysfunction, which is known to be prognostic of poor outcomes in patients with ATTR-CM. A post-hoc analysis of Helios B assessed outcomes at month 30 in patients who had valuable diastolic dysfunction grades, DDG, at baseline. There were three key findings. First, higher DDG at baseline corresponded with adverse outcomes in ATTRCM in the Helios-B study. Second, vitriceran was associated with a lower risk of worsening DDG compared to patients receiving placebo. And finally, vitriceran reduced the risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events during the double-blind period, irrespective of patient's baseline DDG. Together, these data continue to underscore the differentiated and substantial impact of Vutrisiran in ATTR cardiomyopathy. We also continue to advance our next-generation TTR silencer, Nucrisiran, in the Triton Phase 3 program. As a reminder, interim Phase 1 results with Nucrisiran demonstrated greater than 95% mean TTR knockdown and were supportive of a twice-yearly dosing regimen. Triton-CM is a randomized, double-blind, events-driven outcome study of Nucresran versus placebo. We initiated the study last year and are encouraged by the very strong interest we've seen from both investigators and patients who wish to participate. As a result, enrollment is proceeding faster than expected. In addition, and as anticipated, the patients enrolling in this study have somewhat milder disease, on average, than those enrolled in Helios B due to greater disease awareness and earlier diagnosis around the world. Our study already includes a built-in safeguard against potentially low event rates in that it is event-driven. In other words, we will continue the study until we have enough endpoint events to ensure sufficient study power. Today, we are announcing that we will take advantage of the fast pace of enrollment to utilize a pre-specified option in our protocol to expand enrollment by approximately 500 patients, or from 1,250 to about 1,750 in total. This increase further mitigates the risk of low event rates while maintaining or potentially even accelerating timelines for this important study. Given the rapid pace of enrollment and the anticipated accrual of endpoint events, we still project a launch by 2030, assuming positive data and regulatory approval. In addition, the Triton-PN Phase III trial in hereditary ATTR polyneuropathy is also ongoing, and if successful, has the potential to support approval in this indication by 2028. As we look ahead to the next period of R&D evolution at Alnylam, we're guided by our new Alnylam 2030 set of five-year goals, specifically the pillar of growth through sustainable innovation. As a reminder, we've committed to delivering at least two new transformative medicines beyond TTR with blockbuster potential. We also anticipate achieving RNAi delivery to at least 10 tissue types with over 40 programs in the clinic by the end of 2030. And lastly, we aim to invest approximately 30% of revenues in non-GAAP R&D through this period to support our next wave of medicines. We're on our way to achieving these goals and look forward to many clinical readouts in the coming quarters and years to unlock these transformative programs, which will propel alnylam into its next phases of growth. As for 2026, we plan to share updates from across the pipeline as outlined here. In the first half of the year, we expect a complete enrollment in the Capricorn I Phase II trial of Mavelle Saran in cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and to initiate a Phase II trial of Mavelle Saran in Alzheimer's disease. We're also on track to initiate a Phase II trial of ALN 6400 in a second bleeding disorder. In addition to these study milestones, we also look forward to several clinical readouts from three different programs in the second half of the year. For ALN 6400 and bleeding disorders, we plan to share Phase I data from healthy volunteers and Phase II results in patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. We also plan to share Phase I data for ALN HTT-02 in patients with Huntington's disease and ALN 2232 in development for obesity and weight management. Within our robust pipeline are several programs, each with multi-billion dollar potential that we believe represents the next wave of transformative medicines. ALN 6400, which we believe has potential application across a wide range of bleeding disorders. Salviseran, which has the potential to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events by providing continuous control of blood pressure. and ALN-HTTO2, which we are studying to treat Huntington's disease, are among the many opportunities in our pipeline that may improve human health and accelerate growth in the years to come. Given these are novel therapeutics that have the potential to change the practice of medicine, I'm excited to announce that we will be discussing each of these programs in greater detail during upcoming webinars starting this summer. Those of you who have followed El Nilem for a while may recall our RNAi Roundtable series, in which we spotlight key pipeline programs of interest and discuss disease areas, treatment landscapes, unmet needs, and the differentiated impact possible with RNAi Therapeutics. We'll be using a similar format to deep dive into each of these programs and outline the opportunities this summer. Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks. With that, let me now turn it over to Jeff to review our financial results and 2026 guidance.

Jeff? Thanks, Push Call, and good morning, everyone. I'm pleased to be presenting a summary of Alnylam's first quarter 2026 financial results and discussing our full-year guidance. Let's begin with a summary of our P&L results for Q1 2026. Total global net product revenues for the first quarter were more than $1 billion, or 121% growth, versus Q1 last year, driven by the continued uptake of MBUTRA and ATTR cardiomyopathy. We achieved $910 million of TTR revenue in the first quarter, $52 million increase versus Q4, consistent with the Q1 phasing expectations we discussed on our year-end earnings call in February. For the first quarter, collaboration revenue was $82 million, or a 17% decrease compared with the same period last year. The decrease was primarily driven by a $30 million milestone payment received from BEER in Q1 2025. Royalty revenue for the first quarter was $49 million, representing an 85% increase compared to the first quarter of 2025, driven by higher global WEPIO sales. Gross margin on product sales was 80% for the first quarter, representing a 5% decrease compared with Q1 last year. The decrease in margin was primarily driven by increased royalties on Ambutra, as higher revenues in 2026 resulted in an increase in the average royalty rate payable to Sanofi compared with the same period last year. Additionally, quick reminder that the royalty rate we pay Santa Fe on sales of Mbutra resets each calendar year. As a result, as Mbutra sales increase over the course of the year, we anticipate that the average royalty rate on sales of Mbutra paid to Santa Fe will increase, resulting in a decrease in quarterly gross margin on product sales over the course of the year. Our non-GAAP R&D expenses of $335 million increased 39% compared to last year, primarily driven by the costs associated with our ongoing three Phase III clinical studies, including the Zenith Cardiovascular Outcomes Trial for Zalbisiran and the Triton-CM and PN studies for Nucre-Siran. Beyond the pivotal programs, we continue to increase investment to support important programs for bleeding disorders, Huntington's disease, and CAA, as well as early pipeline investment to deliver new INDs. Non-GAAP SG&A expenses of $283 million increased 36% compared to last year, driven primarily by investments in support of the Ambutra ATTR cardiomyopathy launch in the U.S. and in key international markets, as well as increased employee compensation costs and other scaling investments to support the organization. We achieved non-GAAP operating income of $339 million, which represents a more than four times increase compared with last year, driven primarily by the strong top-line results that I previously highlighted. We continued to deliver profitability on both a GAAP and non-GAAP net income basis in the first quarter, which represents our third consecutive quarter of both GAAP and non-GAAP profitability. Finally, we ended the first quarter with cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $3 billion, compared with $2.9 billion as of December 31, 2025. The primary driver of the increase in cash during the quarter was our strong operating performance. Now, turning to our full-year guidance. Today, we are reiterating our 2026 guidance, as presented during our last earnings call, and as summarized on our guidance slide. Notably, on TTR revenue, as Tolga previously highlighted, our guidance continues to reflect an assumption of significantly higher quarter-on-quarter revenue growth to the balance of the year in order to achieve our $4.4 to $4.7 billion TTR product sales guidance. Let me now turn it back to Christine to coordinate our Q&A session. Christine?

Thank you, Jeff. Operator, we will now open the call for questions. To those dialed in who would like to ask you to limit yourself to one question each and then get back in the queue if you have additional questions.

Thank you. At this time, I'd like to remind everybody that in order to ask a question, please press star, followed by the number one on your telephone keypad, and a reminder to please limit yourself to one question only. We will pause for just a moment to compile the Q&A roster. Our first question comes from the line of Riku Baral with TD Cohen. Your line is open.

Good morning, guys. Thanks for taking the question. So, Tolga, I wanted to ask you a little more about your comments around first-line use and second-line use. You said that they were balanced, and I believe you mentioned that use improves with experience, and then you said something about second line use reducing to normal levels. What is that sort of experience that you're seeing? Is it that doctors are starting with second line and then with increased exposure and experience willing to start patients on first line or are they starting on first line and how much does your detailing sort of detailing contribute to it or combination therapy contribute to it as well. Thanks.

Thanks, Richard. There's quite a lot in that question, and we'll try to plan to unpack it as we go. But, you know, just before I turn it over to Tolga, I mean, just to, you know, kind of reiterate our confidence, really, in the fundamentals of the Amvutra launch. And, you know, we're really pleased with the progress that we've made as we march towards achieving our goal of TTR leadership by revenues, you know, to this next period. But Togo, let's dive a little bit into Richard Rush.

Sure. No, I think it's an important dynamic and happy to expand more on that. So what we're really describing is a natural evolution of second line dynamics as the launch progresses. As new prescribers begin using our Mutra, essentially initialization is typically balanced between first and second line. Early second line use is obviously driven by physicians treating patients progressing on stabilizers. They had these patients that were already progressing in the last five, six years. And they were waiting for a product with essentially an orthogonal mechanism of action. So over time, as those patients have transitioned, second line volume normalizes. At the same time, what we're really excited about is the growing physician experience has been leading to increased adoption in the first line setting. I think that's a really important element to highlight. So we see this is a really positive and expected progression that you would see early in the launch dynamics. Today, the business is modestly weighed towards first line, while second line remains an important and ongoing contributor to growth. And obviously, we are, given our orthogonal makers of action, we have the highest share in that respect. But what's also important is this is a gradual shift and mixed as physicians move from early adoption to more established prescribing patterns. And from a strategic standpoint that you asked, our focus remains on strengthening first-line positioning, which in turn supports both broader and more durable utilization, including second line, given our differentiated product profile. So for us, the key driver from here is really going to be about expanding the prescriber base, bringing more physicians into the ombudsman experience, which we consistently see that translates into deeper and early line use over time.

Thank you, Tolkien. Next question.

Our next question comes from the line of Paul Mateus with Stifle. Your line is open.

Hey, great. Good morning. Thanks for taking my question and congrats on the quarter. I was wondering, Jeff, if you could try to help do some math for us on the call as it relates to the headwind this quarter from selling weeks. I know you talked about two selling weeks, but I think that might be related to one specific SP. And then conversely, maybe if there was any sort of inventory headwind or benefit this quarter and sort of when you net it out and take a step back, how would you sort of simplify for us what we're seeing in terms of actual demand growth from 4Q to 1Q for Ambutra in the U.S.? Thank you.

Great. Thanks for the question, Paul. Look, good question. I think Q1 played out generally in line with our expectations in the quarter. If you look at the U.S. results, 59 million in growth, that was primarily demand driven. There was some positive inventory impacts in the quarter, but that was offset by pricing, which is continuing to trend in the direction that we expect. Just to remind you on the things that we talked about impacting the quarter, insurance reauthorizations in the U.S. were part of the story and we did see that i mean if we if we look at demand and start form generation across the quarter january was the lowest and we saw sequential improvement in february and march so that played out as as we uh expected and then you hit on the ordering patterns yes that that's correct um the number of wednesdays in a quarter actually does make an impact in terms of comparisons quarter to quarter just because of the way the ordering works in the u.s so the way things work in the U.S. for us is there's one wholesale distributor that we work with that drives about 80% of the volume. They order every week on Monday in the U.S. Product ships on Tuesday and inventory is received and is recognized on Wednesday. Just the way with the calendar fell last year and then into this year, there were 14 Wednesdays in Q4 last year and 12 in Q1. So that contributed. Look, if you looked at the TTR growth in Q4 last year in the U.S., it was 111 million and, again, $59 million in Q1. So I think, again, this all played out as we expected.

We have the Wednesday dynamic. I was just going to say, we have the Wednesday dynamic. I just wanted to clarify on the selling weeks. We have that dynamic at, like, close to an 11% sequential headwind. Is that an exaggeration of selling week dynamic or kind of roughly where we should be modeling it?

Yeah, again, I'm not going to get into maybe the specific detail on that, Paul, per your question, but it did have an impact, which was one of the reasons why we flagged it on the call in February. Just thinking about going forward, right, for Q2, there'll be 13 Wednesdays. Q3 will have 14. And then Q4 will have 13, right? And so over the course of the year, there's 52 Wednesdays, but that's how they're going to fall. So again, it's one of the things that drives confidence in our view in terms of growth going forward, higher levels of growth on a quarterly basis going forward in the U.S.

If I could add, in terms of how the quarter should be characterized, from a demand perspective, it was really largely driven by demand. So we did have some inventory benefit, but that was really offset by the gross-to-net adjustments. So net-net, this was really about demand growth.

That's spot on, Dr. Gordon. Thanks for providing some color to the quarter. I mean, we were really pleased to be able to maintain patience, how well reauthorizations went, how patients were able to kind of get access, you know, with our commitment to make it as easy as possible for them. So we're always seeing kind of good progress from 2025 to 2026. Thank you. Next question.

Our next question comes from the line of Tazeen Ahmad with Bank of America. Your line is open.

Hi, guys. Thanks for taking my question. There's a study coming up for a competitor who has a silencer. I think there's a lot of eyes on the portion specifically related to adding that silencer onto a stabilizer. So I wanted to get your thoughts. If that portion of the study proves to be robust, is there any reason to think that a result like that would not have been replicated with Ambutra if you had designed that trial? And looking ahead, how do you think physicians would interpret that type of data? Would that be specific to the drug itself? or do you think it would be validating for silencers overall? Thanks.

Thanks, Tazeen. Maybe I'll take your question. Tolga may have something to add as well at the end. Yeah, look, I think we're, you know, obviously looking to see the cardiac transform results as they come out. I think we're expecting a little later this year based on the announcements yesterday. But I think as it relates to the combination portion of that study, yes, it's, you know, they've got an upsized portion in that study. And, you know, we fully expect that that study would be positive and that those results would be positive. The reason we believe that is because we have the Helios V results, which have already shown that the silencing mechanism is effective in monotherapy and in combination therapy when it added on a background of stabilizer. We saw strong results in that category. It was not powered specifically for that group, but we saw additive benefit that was commensurate with the benefit we saw as a monotherapy. And that was realized then in the product labeling as well, where it was recognized that there was equal effectiveness on or off to famidus, and that's captured in the label. And so we're obviously able to communicate that appropriately with prescribers, and Intola can talk more about that dynamic. So I do expect that they'll see a stat性 benefit there, but I think it really enhances and further validates the signal that we've already seen with this drug. The other thing I would just mention is that, you know, we talked today about the Nucresiran study with Triton-CM, and that, you know, is going to, as we've talked about before, be primarily a study adding on top of patients who are on a stabilizer. And with today's announcement, I think we'll have perhaps the largest experience coming out of that study, So, a very, very rich dataset showing the benefits of adding a silencer on top of a stabilizer. So I think we're looking forward to those results as well. So I think we're very well positioned, both for, you know, how the treatment patterns are today and how they're going to evolve over time. But Tolga, maybe you have anything to add?

Toby Lowe- I think it's worth making a kind of commercial comment or two here, I think you've kind of focused very well on how we think about Eplon. But I think it's worth referencing our success in the PN indication.

I mean, I think as you have seen in PN, there are two real dynamics that works in our favor. First and foremost, obviously, we had a significant lead time when Eplon came out in PN. And what you now see is we have a pretty robust and durable market share in terms of new patient starts, over 75%. And then the good news is the category continues to grow in PN. And when you actually translate it into the CM, which is a much larger, obviously, category, when you have a deeper, more durable and sustained knockdown effect, which we already have with Amutra, it's going to be only, you know, advanced by Nucristoran, hopefully, we are really well positioned given the lead time that we have. And again, from a label perspective, we already have a combination used in our label. We really feel good about, you know, another study actually confirming some of the benefits of the silencer class.

Thank you.

Next question.

Our next question comes from the wine of Costas Villioris with Oppenheimer. Your wine is opened.

Thanks for taking our question and congrats on the quarter. Maybe I'd like to reverse Tazine's question and ask about the scenario that cardio transform fails to show an effect under the silencer-stabilizer combo, but Nucriceran can demonstrate an effect under the stabilizer-silence combo.

Do you think that your competitor will be able to leverage Nucriceran's combo data or it will be specific to Nucriceran because of the potency and the durability of the drug? thank you yeah costas it's a it's a it's there's a lot of scenarios there that to work through i i appreciate the nature of your question i don't know that i can answer it directly look i think um again i think there are commonalities between uh the eplon approach and what we're doing uh in that they both uh you know knock down ttr although at the same time they're different molecules and they use different mechanisms we use an rnai mechanism they use an aso mechanism their knock Lockdown tends to happen a little bit longer over time based on the data that I've seen published, whereas we, you know, get to higher levels of knockdown a little bit earlier. So I think, you know, it's really difficult to sort of prognosticate all the different scenarios. I think, you know, maybe they'll see an effect. Maybe it's not static. I don't know. I don't want to speculate at all. But these are different molecules. But there are, you know, overlapping areas. And I think as we get the data sets, there'll be some inferences made in terms of where we can connect the dots. and where there may be unique aspects of the molecules or study designs, for instance, that may have contributed. Our studies are event-driven, for instance, and so that may give us, as we've talked about, additional insurance and help with powering of the studies overall. So, again, I think we'll wait to see how those studies pan out, but I think we feel very good based on the Helios-3 results, our patient-level insights that we have from those studies and the detailed data we have in terms of how to design Triton-CM and to establish its success. And so, we feel very good about that. And that is why part of the reason we added, you know, talked about the sample size increase as well today.

That's great. I think the quarterly subcutaneous regimen as well provides, you know, additional differentiation. I think that's one of the reasons why, you know, we're seeing such much good adherence to Amputra, as well as, obviously, the compelling clinical profile that we provide. Okay, next question, Salveen.

Our next question comes from the line of Salveen Richter with Goldman Sachs. Your line has opened.

Good morning. Thanks for taking my question. With regard to Amputra, how are you thinking of the trajectory in 2026, post the headwinds that played out in 1Q? And, you know, in particular, could you just comment on the ex-U.S. pricing dynamics in Germany and elsewhere and whether those have stabilized yet or are still ongoing?

What questions referring to the, you know, ex-U.S. picture? I think, you know, Togo, clearly you'll answer that. But I just want to say how pleased we are with the progress of our launches ex-U.S. Tolga touched on this in his prepared remarks. And I think it's a testament, actually, to our pricing and reimbursement organization that we've been able to move forward with a number of Amvutra CM launches in Europe and in Japan. Tolga, maybe you want to comment on pricing specifically?

Sure. Thanks, Alvin, for that question. So let's unpack that a little bit in terms of our ex-U.S. pricing dynamics. And we touched upon this in our earnings call, the prior earnings call. And obviously, it worked out better than what we had anticipated. That was primarily driven by our Japan launch progress that's going really well, as well as obviously the robustness business in our PN. But if you look at the rest of the year, I think the way we should be thinking about it is when we launch the CM indication in markets outside the U.S., it does typically involve a price adjustment for Ramutra, which can have an impact on the existing RPN business base. The magnitude of that impact obviously varies by markets, primarily driven by the size of the price adjustment and the relative scale of that business, existing business. In that context, that Germany did represent the most significant impact in Q1 across all our international markets. And importantly, this was obviously a deliberate and expected step in expanding into a larger opportunity. Over time, the CM volume more than offsets the impact of the initial price adjustments on the PN base. And a helpful way to think about this is a mixed shift. We're effectively trading a smaller, higher price segment for access to a significantly larger patient population. And then as the mix evolves, the overall value of the market will expand. And what does this mean for the rest of the quarter is we expect this to become a net positive growth for starting in Q2, building throughout the year, and contributing incrementally on a full-year basis. I think what we had said is essentially the contribution of growth is going to be about the same net-net as ex-US did contribute last year. Very good.

Next question.

Our next question comes from the line of Corey Kasimov with Evercore ISI. Your line is open.

Hey, good morning, guys. Thanks for taking the question. Apologies for asking another one related to cardio transform. But assuming that does, in fact, read out positively, how do you think about the evolution of pricing as another silencer enters the picture, especially given the Part B versus Part D dynamic? Is there any reason to think that pricing could materially change, or is the PN experience applicable in CM in this case as well?

Let's talk about that one for you. Yeah, I mean, I think.

Look, it's never a good idea to speculate your competitors' pricing, but what we've seen so far is we've done really well in 26 in terms of how we've been able to actually increase our first-line access. with payers. We anticipate that to continue, payers are taking this disease very seriously, and price sensitivity right now is not really in the works, as we've seen and been able to demonstrate that. Currently, WANUYA is slightly more premium than our product on an annual basis. What we've seen so far, and they had priced it after us, I think they're also seeing how the pricing is is working uh we don't really anticipate any significant shift in the moment and of course we have uh been you know managing this uh very very thoughtfully and monitoring it very carefully thank you talker next question please our next question comes from the line of ellie merle with barclays your line is opened hey guys thanks for taking the question and congrats on the quarter um in your prepared remarks you commented on how second line use is reduced to a normalized level, but can you comment on the trends you're seeing in the first line?

Are you seeing a steady number of naive starts or an acceleration in the number of naive starts? If you could just help characterize what you're seeing there, that would be helpful. Thanks.

Yeah, you touched on that, Olga, but maybe to add a little bit more color.

Yeah, I mean, I think what's really exciting is what we've been seeing consistently is that when physicians initiate patients on Amutra, utilization deepens and shifts towards earlier using over time, and that really strengthens our first line. So early adoption has largely been driven by treating patients progressing on stabilizers in the second line setting, and the opportunity is to work through prescribing naturally evolves toward a greater proportion of first line use. Therefore, we feel very good about so far how we've been able to managing this, and essentially our aspiration is to continue to grow that first non-use by expanding our prescriber base.

Got it, thank you. Next question.

Our next question comes from the line of Jessica Fai with J.P. Morgan. Your line is open.

Hey, guys. Thanks for taking my question. I was wondering if you could touch on how, if at all, the recently announced Pfizer settlement for Vindimax impacts how you think about the TTR cardiomyopathy landscape looking out over the next several years?

Hi there. Great question, timely. Look, I think we've been rather consistent in how we've been characterizing that our growth outlook is really not dependent on the timing of a generic entry in the stabilizer class. We do expect the impact on our TTR outlook from the settlement to be rather limited. Just to remind everyone, this remains a significant underserved category with a large proportion of patients untreated. And we know that nearly half of those patients that are on a stabilizer continue to progress, and they do in need of an orthogonal mechanism of action. Importantly, demand for Amvutra reflects a fundamental shift toward treating this disease-aided source, which we see as durable and independent of pricing dynamics within the stabilizer class. We also believe that the Trident-CM study positions us really well to generate a robust data package for Nucre, supporting continued leadership in an evolving treatment landscape. Today, we're really well established with broad first-line access, strong patient affordability, growing physician preference, and well ahead of any potential LOE considerations. So taking it all together, I think we feel very well positioned to sustain growth through both continued ambulator adoption and frankly, the advancement of our next generation pipeline. Thank you. Thank you, Toga. Next question.

Our next question comes from the line of Luca Essie with RBC Capital Markets. Your line is open.

Oh, great. Hi, team. This is Shelby on for Luca, and thanks for taking the question. Yesterday, AstraZeneca printed a pretty meaningful miss for TTRPN, and we knew it was actually down 35% Q over Q. So I guess from a competitor standpoint. Is Al Nilem a net beneficiary of that mess in PN? And then maybe bigger picture, could you walk us through your latest thinking on the PN competitive landscape here in the U.S., especially given the Medicare Part B, Part B dynamic and with the pre-filled syringe coming for Wynula? Thanks.

Yeah. I mean, look, I think it is customary to see some softening in the first quarter of the dynamic. When I look at our numbers throughout our PN, we had certainly seen that, but that tends to actually recover in March. And we've always been able to post a good growth based on our base business. So I think you guys should raise that question with them. What we know is even before the CM indication, we have been able to establish a very strong new patient market growth, market share, upwards of 75%, while the category continued to grow. So we are very pleased with that experience, and we certainly have every plan to replicate that success in the CM landscape as well. When it comes to Part D and Part B, look, I think we're really well positioned in terms of how we've been able to provide that access. The fact that our product is a quarterly subcutaneous injectable meets very nicely with the cadence of how those patients actually visit those offices. And by the way, again, we've been able to expand our actually access nearly 100% when it comes to overall access and over 90% in terms of first-line access without any step credits with zero patient out-of-pocket costs. Those dynamics not only, you know, been secured, but also improved versus last year. So, and that's all, again, testament to the product profile, as well as actually testament to the payers who really understand this disease and they leave off to the physician and their choice in how they want to manage this, you know, category. it.

Thanks. Awesome answer. Next question.

Our next question comes from the line of Myles Minter with William Blair. Your line is opened.

Hi, team. This is John on for Myles. Thanks so much for taking our question.

Maybe to switch gears just a little bit, just wondering where you're seeing semi-disserand sitting in the MG competitive landscape, along with some of the next-gen complements, CD19s, acrobats, or SCRNs, and any thoughts as to why more complete complement inhibition in the combo therapy didn't result in better efficacy there?

Yeah, no, we're clearly pleased with the progress of CMD-SRAN in patients with MG. The results were, you know, really quite supportive of use in this disease. Pushkol, are there any additional perspectives you'd like to add?

No, look, I think, I guess I'll just echo what Yvonne said. I think we're really excited that Regeneron has advanced some D-Cerin. I think the data in myasthenia are incredibly compelling that they've generated. We think this is going to be, you know, and we hope and expect this will be a formidable drug for these patients where there's a lot of unmet need. I think the detailed questions in terms of the market and the opportunity, I think we should leave for our colleagues over there, but we're very excited about the molecule and its opportunity to help patients. Yes, absolutely. Next question.

Our next question comes from the line of Mike Alls with Morgan Stanley. Your line is opened.

Good morning. Thanks for taking the question. And maybe just to follow up on the generic TAF question, would you anticipate increased combo use in the frontline setting, or would that be more of a second-line setting effect? And then do you think you need the data from the Chris-Ran combo to kind of accelerate that, or do you not need that? Thanks.

Yeah. Hi, Mike. Look, I think, as I explained, we've been able to establish ourselves as a first-line treatment over 35% in a short nine months since the launch as a third entrant. That really is the fundamental question, in a way, how the market is going to be unfolding. In respect to combination use, as we had shared before, there are physicians who prefer to have a second-line use in a switch or combo. And if that were to happen so far, we haven't seen any significant headwinds. And we don't really speculate on that, how payers are going to be managing that. I think once TEF goes generic, certainly that dynamic will evolve. And I think, obviously, Nucree will be in a great position given the data we're generating. We already also do have combo data in our label, as well as, obviously, physicians have been experiencing it already over a year. So what we, again, appreciate the fact that it's how we got out of the gate in terms of our launch dynamics, and we, you know, continue to maintain that posture.

Yeah, absolutely. I think the key point here is that, you know, as you said, all our forties aren't tied to the genericization of the stabilizer class, and we're quite excited about the Triton-CM design for Nucre-SRAM deliver, you know, a very robust data package to support the evolving treatment landscape. I think we've come to kind of our last question, so I will just wrap up by thanking everybody for joining us today. I think we're off to a good start in 2026, and as we maintain momentum with the ongoing launch of Ambootsman ATTR cardiomyopathy, we also continue to deliver significant advancement across our, you know, really quite exciting and deep pipeline of innovative iron in their therapeutics. Thanks, everybody. All the very best.

Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes today's call. Thank you for joining us. You may now disconnect. Have a good rest of your day.
