Alnylam, under license from the University of South Alabama, and with Asian licensee Kyowa Hakko Kirin (formerly Kyowa Hakko Kogyo), is developing a nasally administered formulation of asvasiran sodium (ALN-RSV01), an siRNA that targets the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) N gene and inhibits viral replication, for the potential treatment or prevention of RSV infection.

.In June 2007, a phase II trial was initiated; in January 2008, top-line data were reported . In March 2013, development was ongoing . In August 2008, Kyowa planned to file the drug for marketing approval in 2014. In March 2013, Alnylam was planning on seeking to outlicense the program to continue to advance the program in other regions .

Alnylam is also developing second-generation agents.

Ex-Asian licensee, Cubist Pharmaceuticals, in collaboration with Alnylam, was previously developing the program for the potential treatment or prevention of RSV infection . However, in February 2013, the deal was terminated . Alnylam was also developing an inhaled formulation of asvasiran sodium; however, in February 2014, the drug was no longer listed on the company’s development pipeline.
