or contact Reed Kathrein, who is leading the firm’s investigation, by calling 510-725-3000 or emailing [email protected].
On October 5, 2016 Alnylam filed its Form 8-K with the SEC publicly announcing it would discontinue testing of one of its key drugs, Revusiran, “upon the recommendation of the ENDEAVOUR Phase 3 study Data Monitoring Committee (DMC).” TheStreet reported on October 6, 2016 that “[w]hen independent monitors peeked into the study results” of Revusiran, they found 18 patients had died, the majority of whom were treated with Revusiran as opposed to placebo. Alnylam has yet to disclose exactly how many of the 18 patients were taking Revusiran during the study.
Alnylam’s disclosures drove its stock price down over 45% during intra-day trading on October 6, 2016.
“We’re looking into when the deaths occurred relative to management’s statements about the drug’s development,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.

Under the new SEC whistleblower program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC.
