H.C. Wainwright 4th Annual BioConnect Investor Conference summary
18 Aug, 2026Pipeline overview and value drivers
mRNAi GOLD platform enables targeted, potent, and long-acting siRNA medicines for cardiometabolic and hematological diseases.
Key clinical assets include divesiran (polycythemia vera), zerlasiran (Lp(a) lowering), and SLN312 (dyslipidemia), with additional preclinical programs in hypercholesterolemia and obesity.
Phase II SANRECO data for divesiran and phase III readiness for zerlasiran are major milestones expected in the next year.
Proprietary siRNA chemistry and openness to partnerships support differentiation and development.
RNAi technology advantages
siRNA enables gene silencing of previously undruggable targets with high potency and long duration.
Dosing can be infrequent (every three months or longer), improving patient convenience.
RNAi medicines offer reversibility and precision, expanding therapeutic options.
Divesiran for polycythemia vera
Targets TMPRSS6 to increase hepcidin, reducing iron availability and controlling hematocrit.
Phase I data show durable hematocrit control below 45% and favorable safety up to 9 mg/kg.
Phase II SANRECO trial is fully enrolled, with top-line data expected August 2026; primary endpoint is hematocrit control without phlebotomy.
Both 6- and 12-week dosing arms are being evaluated, with six-week dosing already seen as commercially compelling.
Positioned for first-line use in phlebotomy-dependent and cytoreductive-naive PV patients.
