PROTOCOL SYNOPSIS 
Protocol Title 
APOLLO:  A Phase 3 Multicenter, Multinational, Randomized, 
Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy 
and Safety of Patisiran (ALN-TTR02) in Transthyretin (TTR)-
Mediated Polyneuropathy (Familial Amyloidotic 
Polyneuropathy-FAP) 
Indication 
Treatment of transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (ATTR) in 
patients with symptomatic polyneuropathy 
Protocol Number 
ALN-TTR02-004 
Phase of 
Development 
3 
Design 
This is a multicenter, multinational, randomized, double-blind 
study comparing patisiran (ALN-TTR02) to placebo in ATTR 
patients with symptomatic Familial Amyloidotic Polyneuropathy 
(FAP). 
Consented eligible patients will be randomized to receive either 
0.3 mg/kg patisiran or placebo in a 2:1 ratio (patisiran to placebo) 
in a blinded manner.  Treatment arms will be balanced at entry 
for Neuropathy Impairment Score (NIS; 5-49 vs 50-130), early 
onset V30M (<50 years of age at onset) vs. all other mutations 
(including late onset V30M), and previous tetramer stabilizer use 
(tafamidis or diflunisal) vs no previous tetramer stabilizer use.  
Patients will receive patisiran or placebo once every 21 days for 
78 weeks. 
Patients will have baseline efficacy assessments and efficacy 
assessments at 9 and 18 months.  The study personnel performing 
these assessments will be blinded to the results of any previous 
assessments (e.g., Screening/Baseline, Baseline, or 9-month 
assessments). 
At the 9-month time point, if the clinical adjudication committee 
determines that a patient is exhibiting rapid disease progression 
(defined as ≥24 point increase in modified NIS+7 (mNIS+7) 
from baseline [based on an average of 2 measurements] and FAP 
stage progression relative to baseline), the patient’s treating 
physician will provide the patient with the option of 
discontinuing study drug and receiving local standard of care 
treatment for FAP.  Patients who discontinue study drug will 
remain on study, following a modified schedule of visits, through 
completion of the 18-month efficacy assessments (blinding will 
be maintained throughout).

Page 9 of 109 
Patients who complete the 18-month efficacy assessments can 
elect to participate in an extension study in which patients would 
receive open-label administration of 0.3 mg/kg patisiran once 
every 21 days. 
A Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will be implemented for 
the study and will operate under a prespecified charter.  
Study Sites 
This study will be conducted at multiple sites worldwide. 
Investigational 
Drug 
Patisiran (comprising a small interfering ribonucleic acid 
[siRNA] targeting mutant and wild-type TTR mRNA, in a lipid 
nanoparticle formulation for intravenous [IV] administration) 
Dosage, Route of 
Administration 
and Duration of 
Treatment of 
Investigational 
Drug 
Patients randomized to the active treatment group will receive 
0.3 mg/kg patisiran once every 21 (±3) days administered as an 
IV infusion over 70 minutes (approximately 1 mL/minute for the 
first 15 minutes followed by approximately 3 mL/minute for the 
remainder of the infusion) by a controlled infusion device.  
Prior to each dose of study drug, patients will receive the 
following premedications at least 60 minutes prior to the 
infusion: 
• Intravenous dexamethasone (10 mg) or equivalent; 
• Oral paracetamol/acetaminophen (500 mg) or equivalent; 
• Intravenous H2 blocker (e.g., ranitidine 50 mg, famotidine 
20 mg, or equivalent other H2 blocker dose); and 
• Intravenous H1 blocker: diphenhydramine 50 mg (or 
equivalent other IV H1 blocker available at the study site).  
Hydroxyzine or fexofenadine 25 mg per oral suspension 
(PO, orally) or cetirizine 10 mg PO may be substituted for 
any patient who does not tolerate intravenous 
diphenhydramine or other intravenous H1 blocker. 
Control Drug 
Placebo (normal saline 0.9% for IV administration) 
Dosage, Route of 
Administration 
and Duration of 
Treatment of 
Control Drug 
Patients randomized to placebo will receive IV normal saline 
(0.9%) using the same dosing schedule and infusion rate as the 
active treatment group.   
Placebo patients will also receive the same premedication 
regimen as the active treatment group. 
Time on Study 
The duration of patient participation in this study is 
approximately 21 months (inclusive of a 42-day screening 
window and up to a 56-day post last dose study visit). 
Primary 
Objective 
The primary objective of the study is to determine the efficacy of 
patisiran by evaluating the difference between the patisiran and 
placebo groups in the change from baseline of mNIS+7 score at 
18 months.

Secondary 
Objectives 
The secondary objectives of the study are to determine the effect 
of patisiran on various clinical parameters by assessing the 
difference between patisiran and placebo in the change from 
baseline in the following measurements at 18 months: 
• Norfolk Quality of Life-Diabetic Neuropathy 
(Norfolk QOL-DN) questionnaire; 
• NIS-weakness (NIS-W) score; 
• Modified body mass index (mBMI); 
• Timed 10-meter walk test; 
• Autonomic symptoms questionnaire (Composite Autonomic 
Symptom Score [COMPASS-31]). 
Exploratory 
Objectives: 
The exploratory objectives of the study are: 
• To determine the difference between the patisiran and 
placebo groups in the change from baseline in the following 
measurements at 18 months: 
• 
NIS+7 score; 
• 
Grip strength; 
• 
EuroQOL (EQ-5D) questionnaire; 
• 
Level of disability (Rasch-built Overall Disability Scale 
[R-ODS]); 
• 
Large vs small nerve fiber function including nerve 
conduction studies (NCS) 5 attributes (Σ5), quantitative 
sensory testing by body surface area including touch 
pressure and heat pain (QST), vibration detection 
threshold (VDT), heart rate response to deep breathing 
(HRdb), postural blood pressure; 
• 
Pathologic evaluation of sensory and autonomic 
innervation through voluntary skin punch biopsies and 
analysis of intraepidermal nerve fiber density (IENFD) 
and sweat gland nerve fiber density (SGNFD); 
• 
Assessment of ambulation through FAP stage and 
Polyneuropathy Disability (PND) score; 
• 
Cardiac assessment through echocardiogram, troponin I, 
and N-terminal prohormone of B-type natriuretic 
peptide (NT-proBNP) levels; 
• 
Pharmacodynamic (PD) biomarkers (TTR, retinol 
binding protein [RBP], vitamin A); 
• 
To compare the proportion of patients in the patisiran and 
placebo groups who meet the pre-defined criterion for rapid 
disease progression (defined as ≥24 point increase in 
mNIS+7 from baseline [based on an average of

2 measurements] and FAP stage progression relative to 
baseline) at 9 months. 
Sample Size: 
Approximately 200 patients will be enrolled in this study.  Of 
those 200 patients, no more than 40 patients will have a NIS 
range of 101 to 130.  An mNIS+7 progression rate (primary 
endpoint) in the placebo group of 24 ± 16 points in 18 months 
was estimated using natural history data from FAP patients.  A 
sample of 154 patients provides 90% power for a 2-sided test 
with an 8.95 point (37.5%) mean difference between treatment 
groups in the primary endpoint at 2-sided alpha = 0.05.  
Assuming a 25% random premature discontinuation rate (due to 
liver transplantation or other factors), the sample size for this 
study is approximately 200.  Additional patients may be enrolled 
based on a recommendation to increase the sample size in the 
interim analysis.

• 
Neurologic impairment will be assessed using the mNIS+7 
composite score.  The mNIS+7 includes the modified NIS 
(weakness and reflexes), NCS Σ5, QST, as well as 
autonomic assessment through postural blood pressure; 
• 
Patient-reported QOL will be evaluated using the Norfolk 
QOL-DN and the EQ-5D.  Disability will be reported by 
patients using the R-ODS; 
• 
Autonomic symptoms will be assessed using the 
COMPASS-31; 
• 
Motor function assessments to be evaluated include NIS-W, 
timed 10-meter walk test, and grip strength test; 
• 
PND score and FAP stage; 
• 
Nutritional status will be assessed using mBMI; 
• 
Pathologic evaluation of sensory and autonomic innervation 
will be evaluated by IENFD analysis and quantitation of 
dermal SGNFD via tandem 3 mm skin punch biopsies taken 
from the leg; 
• 
Neurologic impairment will also be assessed by NIS+7 
(including full NIS, NCS, VDT, and HRdb); 
• 
Cardiac structure and function will be assessed through 
echocardiograms as well as measurement of serum levels of 
NT-proBNP and troponin I. 
Pharmaco-
dynamic 
Assessments 
Pharmacodynamic markers assessed serially will include serum 
TTR, vitamin A, and RBP.  Additional blood samples will be 
collected for exploratory biomarkers related to FAP. 
Pharmacokinetic 
Assessments 
The plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) evaluation will include, 
whenever possible, plasma-concentration time profiles for siRNA 
and the novel lipid components in patisiran: DLin-MC3-DMA 
and polyethylene glycol (PEG)2000-C-DMG.  The siRNA, DLin-
MC3-DMA, and PEG2000-C-DMG concentrations will be 
determined for all patients at time points specified in Table 1-1, 
Table 1-2, and Table 1-3.  
Urine will be collected with void volume recorded for all patients 
at time points specified in Table 1-1, Table 1-2, and Table 1-3 
and to determine renal clearance (CLR) of siRNA and 
4-dimethylaminodibutyric acid (the metabolite of DLin-
MC3-DMA) after dosing with study drug.

Safety 
Assessments 
Safety will be assessed throughout the study by collecting 
adverse events (AEs; including serious adverse events [SAEs]); 
clinical laboratory tests, including hematology, clinical chemistry 
(including liver function tests), thyroid function parameters, and 
urinalysis; measurement of anti-drug antibodies; 
electrocardiograms; vital signs; physical examination findings; 
and ophthalmology examinations. 
Other 
Assessments 
Disease burden and healthcare utilization will be assessed using a 
patient-reported pharmacoeconomics questionnaire.  The 
investigator will periodically assess mental status as it relates to 
suicidal ideation and behavior by using the Columbia–Suicide 
Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) questionnaire.   
Follow-Up 
Patients who complete the 18-month efficacy assessments can 
elect to participate in an extension study in which patients would 
receive open-label administration of 0.3 mg/kg patisiran once 
every 21 days.  Eligible patients who elect to participate will 
return for a follow-up visit 21 days after last dose of study drug. 
If the patient decides not to participate in the extension study, the 
patient will complete 2 follow-up visits at 21 and 56 days after 
the last dose of study drug.  Each follow-up visit includes safety 
assessments and the 21-day follow-up also includes PD 
measurements. 
Statistical 
Methods 
A full statistical analysis plan (SAP) will be finalized prior to 
database lock. 
The primary analysis will compare patients administered 
patisiran versus those administered placebo in the modified 
intent-to-treat (mITT) population.  Specifically, patients who are 
randomized and receive at least 1 dose of study drug will be 
included in this analysis.  The primary analysis will compare 
change in mNIS+7 from baseline at 18 months between patisiran 
and placebo groups, adjusted for the stratification factors.  
Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) will be used to analyze the 
primary endpoint.  Primary endpoint data that are missing will be 
inferred using multiple imputations.  Sensitivity analyses, 
including mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) analyses, 
will assess the robustness of the primary analysis for the mITT 
and per protocol (PP) populations.  
Type I error control for secondary endpoints will be achieved by 
a hierarchical ordering procedure.  Briefly, endpoints will be 
evaluated in order to control for multiplicity. 
An independent interim analysis committee (IAC) will conduct a 
blinded interim analysis when approximately 50% of patients 
have completed their 9-month mNIS+7 assessments.  This

interim analysis will estimate the overall variance in the mNIS+7 
score.  Based on the results of the interim analysis, the committee 
can recommend either increasing the study sample size or making 
no adjustment to the sample size. 
PK analyses will be conducted using non-compartmental and/or 
compartmental evaluation.  The PK parameters of siRNA, DLin-
MC3-DMA, and PEG2000-C-DMG in plasma will be evaluated. 
Population PK analyses will be performed whenever possible on 
available siRNA, DLin-MC3-DMA, and PEG2000-C-DMG from 
sparse samples collected at various time points during the 
duration of the study. 
Inferential statistics of PD and PK/PD parameters, correlation 
between siRNA, DLin-MC3-DMA or PEG2000C-DMG exposure 
versus TTR, RBP, or vitamin A, and between TTR versus RBP 
and vitamin A will be provided.

Table 1-1 Footnotes: 
Abbreviations:  COMPASS 31 = Composite Autonomic Symptom Score; EQ-5D = EuroQOL-5 Dimensions; ECG = electrocardiogram; FAP = familial amyloidotic 
polyneuropathy; HIV = human immunodeficiency virus; IENFD = Intraepidermal nerve fiber density; IFE = immunofixation electrophoresis; mBMI = modified body mass 
index; mNIS = Modified Neuropathy Impairment Score; NCS = nerve conduction studies; NIS = Neuropathy Impairment Score; NT-proBNP = N-terminal prohormone of B-
type natriuretic peptide; PND = polyneuropathy disability; QOL-DN = Quality of Life-Diabetic Neuropathy; RBP = retinol binding protein; R-ODS = Rausch-built Overall 
Disability Scale; SGNFD = Sweat gland nerve fiber density; TTR = transthyretin. 
a. 
The Screening/Baseline and Baseline visits will be performed on separate days.  The Screening/Baseline visit must be performed within 21 days prior to the first dose of study 
drug (Day 0).  The Baseline visit must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately), but not more than 7 days, after the Screening/Baseline visit.  In conjunction with the 
decision of the Medical Monitor(s), patients may be allowed to rescreen after a minimum of 5 days have elapsed from their last screening assessment.  Note:  Inclusion 
Criteria 3 (i.e., NIS of 5 to 130 [inclusive] and PND score ≤3b) and 4 (i.e., NCS sum of the sural sensory nerve action potential [SNAP], tibial compound muscle action 
potential [CMAP], ulnar SNAP, ulnar CMAP, and peroneal CMAP of ≥2 points) must be met at the Screening/Baseline visit.  All other entry criteria (inclusion and exclusion) 
will be assessed at the Screening visit only. 
b. 
An interval medical history will be collected at the Screening/Baseline and Baseline visit.  Only changes since the Screening visit will be collected. 
c. 
Serologies will include hepatitis B surface antibody (HbsAb), hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg), and anti–hepatitis C virus antibody (anti-HCV Ab). 
d. 
The NIS and NCS will be assessed for the likelihood of a patient meeting the NIS and NCS eligibility criteria at the Screening/Baseline visit. The documented results of 
previously performed NIS and NCS may be used to qualify a patient for this study if these tests were performed within 60 days prior to the date of informed consent. 
e. 
The mNIS+7 consists of the modified NIS tool (weakness and reflexes), NCS 5 attributes (Σ5), quantitative sensory testing (QST) by body surface area including touch 
pressure (TP) and heat pain (HP), and postural blood pressure.  At the 9-month efficacy assessment, 2 assessments of the mNIS+7 will be performed on separate days 
(1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the first assessment, but not more than 7 days apart.  
Components that are shared between the mNIS+7 and NIS+7 (including NIS and NCS) will be performed once at each assessment (e.g., the weakness component should not 
be performed more than once on any given day). 
f. 
The NIS+7 consists of the NIS tool (weakness, sensation, and reflexes), NCS Σ5, vibration detection threshold (VDT), and heart rate response to deep breathing (HRdB).  At 
the 9-month efficacy assessment, 2 assessments of the NIS+7 will be performed on separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) assessment must be 
conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the first assessment, but not more than 7 days apart.  Components that are shared between the mNIS+7 and NIS+7 (including 
NIS and NCS) will be performed once at each assessment (e.g., the weakness component should not be performed more than once on any given day). 
g. 
At the Screening/Baseline visit, only PND score is required. 
h. 
If the patient has provided separate informed consent for skin biopsies, 2 sets of tandem 3-mm skin punch biopsies are to be obtained (4 biopsies total).  One set of biopsies 
will be taken from the distal lower leg, when a patient’s clinical status allows, and one set from the distal thigh at each time point.  Skin biopsies will be performed at a central 
assessment site (CAS). 
i. 
The mBMI calculation will take place programmatically in the clinical database; the site will not perform the calculation. 
j. 
The patient will be asked to walk 10 meters.  The walk must be completed without assistance from another person; ambulatory aids such as canes and walkers are permitted.  
The time required for the patient to walk 10 meters will be recorded.  At the 9-month efficacy assessment, 2 assessments of the 10-meter walk test will be performed on 
separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the first assessment, but not more than 
7 days apart.  
k. 
Grip strength will be measured in triplicate using a dynamometer held in the dominant hand.  Every effort will be made to use the same device for a patient throughout the 
duration of the study.  At the 9-month efficacy assessment, 2 assessments of the grip strength will be performed on separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second 
(repeat) assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the first assessment, but not more than 7 days apart. 
l. 
On dosing days, blood samples for PD assessments will be obtained prior to dosing and vitamin A supplementation.

Vital signs to include: blood pressure, pulse rate, temperature, and respiratory rate.  Parameters are to be measured in the supine position using an automated instrument after 
the patient has rested comfortably for 10 minutes.  Vital signs must be collected pre-dose.  On Day 0, vital signs will also be collected post-dose. 
p. 
All ECGs are to be obtained in triplicate. 
q. 
Blood samples for anti-drug antibody testing will be collected prior to study drug dosing. 
r. 
A pregnancy test (urine- or serum-based) will be performed on all females of child-bearing potential. 
s. 
The baseline ophthalmology examination may be performed any time after the patient is deemed eligible for participation in the study through Day 21.  The 9-month 
ophthalmology examination will be performed between Days 231(±3) and 272 at a CAS. 
t. 
Plasma PK samples will be collected as follows:  Day 0:  pre-dose (within 1 hour of planned study drug dosing) and at the end of infusion (+5 minutes).  Day 21 and Day 252: 
pre-dose (within 1 hour of planned study drug dosing) and 30 minutes after the end of the infusion (+15 minutes).  Day 126: pre-dose (within 1 hour of planned study drug 
dosing) and at the end of infusion (+5 minutes). 
 
u. 
Urine PK samples will be collected pre-dose (within 1 hour of planned study drug dosing). 
v. 
Randomization procedures are described in Section 4.4.1. 
w. Prior to dosing, all patients will receive premedications administered at least 60 minutes prior to the start of infusion of study drug.  The regimen is described in Section 5.3.1.  
x. 
The patient’s infusion site should be assessed for signs of any localized reaction during the infusion and for 30 minutes after the end of the infusion.  The patient will remain 
at the study site for 1 hour following completion of dosing for observation and completion of assessments. 
y. 
Patients who discontinue study drug due to rapid disease progression based on the 9-month efficacy assessments will continue on to the Modified Visit Schedule (See Table 
1-3). 
z. 
Assessment must be completed at a single time point during one of the specified visits, at the discretion of the investigator.

Table 1-2 Footnotes: 
Abbreviations:  COMPASS 31 = Composite Autonomic Symptom Score; C-SSRS = Columbia–Suicide Severity Rating Scale; EQ-5D = EuroQOL; ECG = electrocardiogram; 
FAP = familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy; IENFD = Intraepidermal nerve fiber density; mBMI = modified body mass index; mNIS = Modified Neuropathy Impairment 
Score; NIS = Neuropathy Impairment Score; NT-proBNP = N-terminal prohormone of B-type natriuretic peptide; PND = polyneuropathy disability; QOL-DN = Quality of 
Life-Diabetic Neuropathy; RBP = retinol binding protein; R-ODS = Rausch-built Overall Disability Scale; SGNFD = Sweat gland nerve fiber density; TTR = transthyretin. 
a.  
If a patient enrolls in the extension study, the patient will only have to complete the 21-day follow-up assessments (EOS; Day 567) and not the 56-day follow-up assessments 
(Day 602).  Patients who do not enroll in the extension study will need to complete both follow-up visits (Days 567 and 602). 
b.  The Early Withdrawal visit will take place over 2 days to allow for the repeat assessment of the mNIS+7, NIS+7, timed 10-meter walk, and grip strength test. 
c. 
Patients who discontinue treatment may return for follow-up visits at 9 and/or 18 months. 
d.  The mNIS+7 consists of the modified NIS tool (weakness and reflexes), NCS Σ5, QST by body surface area including TP and HP, and postural blood pressure.  Two 
assessments will be performed on separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the 
first assessment, but not more than 7 days apart.  Components that are shared between the mNIS+7 and NIS+7 (including NIS and NCS) will be performed once at each 
assessment (e.g., the weakness component should not be performed more than once on any given day).   
e.  
The NIS+7 consists of the NIS tool (weakness, sensation, and reflexes), NCS Σ5, VDT, and heart rate response to deep breathing.  Two assessments will be performed on 
separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the first assessment, but not more than 
7 days apart.  Components that are shared between the mNIS+7 and NIS+7 (including NIS and NCS) will be performed once at each assessment (e.g., the weakness 
component should not be performed more than once on any given day).   
f.  
If the patient has provided separate informed consent for skin biopsies, 2 sets of tandem 3-mm skin punch biopsies are to be obtained (4 biopsies total).  One set of biopsies 
will be taken from the distal lower leg, when a patient’s clinical status allows, and 1 set from the distal thigh at each time point. 
g.  The mBMI calculation will take place programmatically in the clinical database; the site will not perform the calculation.  
h.  The patient will be asked to walk 10 meters.  The walk must be completed without assistance from another person; ambulatory aids such as canes and walkers are permitted.  
The time required for the patient to walk 10 meters will be recorded.  Two assessments will be performed on separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) 
assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the first assessment, but not more than 7 days apart.   
i.  
Grip strength will be measured using a dynamometer held in the dominant hand.  Every effort will be made to use the same device for a patient throughout the duration of the 
study.  Two assessments will be performed on separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) 
after the first assessment, but not more than 7 days apart.   
j. 
Only the Norfolk and EQ-5D are to be performed for patients who discontinue treatment and return for the 9 and 18 month visits. 
k. 
On dosing days, blood samples for PD assessments will be obtained prior to dosing and vitamin A supplementation. 
l.  
On dosing day, all safety assessments are performed pre-dose. 
m.  Weight from previous visit should be used for calculating dose.  Weight must be collected pre-dose. 
n.  Vital signs to include: blood pressure, pulse rate, temperature, and respiratory rate.  Parameters are to be measured in the supine position using an automated instrument after 
the patient has rested comfortably for 10 minutes.  Vital signs must be collected pre-dose. 
o. 
All ECGs are to be obtained in triplicate. 
p.  On study drug dosing days, blood samples for anti-drug antibody testing will be collected pre-dose. 
q.  A pregnancy test (urine- or serum-based) will be performed on all females of child-bearing potential. 
r. 
The 18-month ophthalmology examination will be performed between Days 546(±3) and 560 at a CAS.

Table 1-2 Footnotes (continued): 
s. 
Plasma PK samples will be collected as follows:  Day 399: pre-dose (within 1 hour of planned study drug dosing) and at the end of infusion (+5 minutes).  Day 546: pre-dose 
(within 1 hour of planned study drug dosing) and 30 minutes after the end of the infusion (+15 minutes).  Early Withdrawal:  any time within the visit window. 
t. 
Urine PK samples will be collected as follows:  Day 399 and Day 546:  pre-dose (within 1 hour of planned study drug dosing).  Early Withdrawal:  any time within the visit 
window. 
u. 
Prior to dosing, all patients will receive premedications administered at least 60 minutes prior to the start of infusion of study drug.  The regimen is described in Section 5.3.1. 
v.  The patient’s infusion site should be assessed for signs of any localized reaction during the infusion and for 30 minutes after the end of the infusion.  The patient will remain 
at the study site for 1 hour following completion of dosing for observation and completion of assessments. 
w. INR assessment only, which is to be used for qualification for Study TTR02-006.

a. 
The Early Withdrawal visit will be conducted for any patient who discontinues from the study after the Day 273 visit (e.g., from  Day 274 onward).  This visit will take place 
over 2 days (at least 24 hours [approximately], but not more than 7 days apart) to allow for the repeat assessment of the mNIS+7, NIS+7, timed 10-meter walk, and grip 
strength test. 
b. 
Patients who discontinue study drug and also decide to discontinue from the study at the time of this visit will not have any additional visits after the Day 273 assessments are 
completed. 
c.  
The patient will consult with the Investigator on a subsequent plan of care, which may include receiving therapy for FAP as per the local standard of care. 
d 
The mNIS+7 consists of the modified NIS tool (weakness and reflexes), NCS Σ5, QST by body surface area including TP and HP, and postural blood pressure.  Two 
assessments will be performed on separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the 
first assessment, but not more than 7 days apart.  Components that are shared between the mNIS+7 and NIS+7 (including NIS and NCS) will be performed once at each 
assessment (e.g., the weakness component should not be performed more than once on any given day). 
e. 
The NIS+7 consists of the NIS tool (weakness, sensation, and reflexes), NCS Σ5, VDT, and heart rate response to deep breathing.  Two assessments will be performed on 
separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the first assessment, but not more than 
7 days apart. Components that are shared between the mNIS+7 and NIS+7 (including NIS and NCS) will be performed once at each assessment (e.g., the weakness 
component should not be performed more than once on any given day). 
f. 
If the patient has provided separate informed consent for skin biopsies, 2 sets of tandem 3-mm skin punch biopsies are to be obtained (4 biopsies total).  One set of biopsies 
will be taken from the distal lower leg, when a patient’s clinical status allows, and 1 set from the distal thigh at each time point. 
g. 
The mBMI calculation will take place programmatically in the clinical database; the site will not perform the calculation. 
h. 
The patient will be asked to walk 10 meters.  The walk must be completed without assistance from another person; ambulatory aids such as canes and walkers are permitted.  
The time required for the patient to walk 10 meters will be recorded.  Two assessments will be performed on separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) 
assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) after the first assessment, but not more than 7 days apart.   
i. 
Grip strength will be measured using a dynamometer held in the dominant hand.  Every effort will be made to use the same device for a patient throughout the duration of the 
study.  Two assessments will be performed on separate days (1 assessment on each day).  The second (repeat) assessment must be conducted at least 24 hours (approximately) 
after the first assessment, but not more than 7 days apart.   
j. 
Vital signs to include: blood pressure, pulse rate, temperature, and respiratory rate.  Parameters are to be measured in the supine position using an automated instrument after 
the patient has rested comfortably for 10 minutes. 
k. 
All ECGs are to be obtained in triplicate. 
l. 
A pregnancy test (urine- or serum-based) will be performed on all females of child-bearing potential. 
m. Concomitant medications/treatments will be collected through Day 294 (Week 42) only.  Data on subsequent FAP treatment regimens will be collected separately.  
n. 
Adverse events will be collected through Day 294 (Week 42) only.  See Section 8.5 for SAE reporting periods. 
o.  Following the Day 294 (Week 42) visit, only adverse events that are considered related to the study procedures will be collected (e.g., skin biopsies, venipunctures). 
p. 
At these time points, data will be collected through phone contact.

INTRODUCTION 
1.1 
Background and Rationale 
1.1.1 Disease Overview 
Transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (ATTR) is an inherited, autosomal dominant, 
systemic disease caused by a mutation in the transthyretin (TTR) gene.1  Transthyretin is 
a tetrameric 127 amino acid protein that is secreted predominantly (>95%) by 
hepatocytes, with a smaller fraction produced by the choroid plexus and retina.2  
Physiologically, TTR is a major serum carrier for retinol binding protein (RBP) and a 
minor carrier of thyroxine (T4).  Mutations in the TTR protein lead to destabilization of 
the tetrameric form and dissociation into dimers and monomers; misfolding of mutated 
monomers from the α-helical to the β-pleated sheet structure results in tissue deposition 
of amyloid fibrils.3  Amyloid deposits typically contain both mutant and wild-type (WT) 
TTR.  The particular TTR mutation and site of amyloid deposition determines the clinical 
manifestations of the disease, which include sensory and motor neuropathy, autonomic 
neuropathy, and/or cardiomyopathy.  ATTR is a progressive disease associated with 
severe morbidity, with a life expectancy limited to 5 to 15 years from symptom onset.4  
There are over 100 reported TTR mutations which are associated with 2 clinical 
syndromes: familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP) and familial amyloidotic 
cardiomyopathy (FAC).5,6,7   
“Patisiran” (the International Nonproprietary Name [INN] name for the drug product 
previously referred to as ALN-TTR02) is being developed for the treatment of ATTR 
patients with symptomatic FAP. 
The estimated worldwide prevalence of FAP is 5,000 to 10,000, with the majority of 
cases in Portugal, Sweden, France, Japan, Brazil, and the United States.8,9  The most 
common causative mutation of FAP is TTR Val30Met (V30M), with the onset of 
symptoms typically occurring between 30 and 55 years of age.10  Amyloid deposition 
occurs largely in the peripheral nerves, starting as a nerve length-dependent sensory 
polyneuropathy in the feet causing numbness and pain and progressing to painful 
dysesthesias.  Disabling motor neuropathy follows, characterized by leg weakness and 
eventual inability to walk.  Autonomic neuropathy is another common feature of the 
disease, resulting in severe gastrointestinal pathology (including diarrhea or constipation 
and malabsorption, leading to severe malnutrition), orthostatic hypotension, and bladder 
dysfunction with recurring urinary tract infections.11,12,13,14  For several mutations, 
cardiac pathology also occurs due to amyloid infiltration of the sinus node, 
atrioventricular conduction system, and infiltration of the myocardium.15,16  Involvement 
of the conduction system can lead to sudden death due to dysrhythmias, and myocardial 
infiltration can lead to diastolic dysfunction and right-sided heart failure.17  The 
cardiomyopathy proceeds inexorably, leading to death typically within 10 years.18 
There are multiple lines of evidence demonstrating that reduction of circulating TTR 
improves outcomes in patients with ATTR.  Because the liver is the primary source of 
WT and mutant TTR, orthotopic liver transplantation has been used since 1990 in an 
attempt to treat FAP,19 and is the current standard of care in patients who are eligible for 
transplant (patients with minimal neuropathy symptoms and no cardiac involvement).

When liver transplantation is performed early in the course of the disease, it can stabilize 
and slow the course of neuropathic disease in patients with FAP due to V30M, but is less 
effective in patients with other TTR mutations.20  However, it is less effective in patients 
with more advanced disease, especially those with heart involvement, due to the 
continued production and deposition of WT TTR in tissues with pre-existing 
amyloid.21,22,23 
It is estimated that approximately two-thirds of FAP patients are not transplant-eligible.  
Furthermore, liver transplant poses risks from the surgical procedure and from life-
threatening complications due to graft rejection or infections.  The 1-year mortality rate 
post-transplant is 10%.24 
Nonsurgical options that are used for the treatment of FAP (depending on geographic 
location) include tafamidis (Vyndaqel®) and diflunisal.  Tafamidis is a small molecule 
TTR stabilizer that binds to the thyroxine binding sites of the TTR tetramer, thus 
preventing its dissociation to monomers and potentially preventing fibril formation.  
While tafamidis is approved in the European Union (EU) for the treatment of ATTR in 
adult patients with Stage 1 symptomatic polyneuropathy to delay peripheral neurologic 
impairment, it is not considered the standard of care throughout the EU and it has not 
been approved for use outside the EU.25 
Diflunisal is a generic, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is also a 
tetramer stabilizer and binds to TTR in a similar manner as tafamidis.  A multinational, 
placebo-controlled Phase 3 study in patients with all stages of FAP was recently 
completed; however, the results have not been released.  Due to the restricted use of liver 
transplantation and tafamidis in patients with early stage of disease, and the non-standard 
use of diflunisal among practitioners, there remains an unmet medical need for a potent 
and effective therapy for FAP that will have an impact on patients across a broad range of 
neurologic impairment, regardless of their mutation (V30M or non-V30M). 
1.1.2 RNA Interference 
Ribonucleic acid interference (RNAi) is a naturally occurring cellular mechanism for 
regulating gene expression that is mediated by “small interfering ribonucleic acids” 
(siRNAs).26  Typically, synthetic siRNAs are 19 to 23 base pair double-stranded 
oligonucleotides in a staggered duplex with a 2-nucleotide overhang at one or both of the 
3' ends.  Such siRNAs can be designed to target an endogenous or virally-expressed gene.  
When introduced into cells, the net effect of an RNAi-based pharmacological approach is 
the binding of the siRNA to its complementary messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) 
sequence, cleavage of this target mRNA, and suppression of the target protein.27  The 
ability to selectively and potently degrade the mRNA encoding the TTR protein using an 
siRNA offers a potent and specific approach for the treatment of ATTR. 
Unformulated siRNAs, and those without chemical modification, are rapidly degraded 
and eliminated upon systemic administration, and thus do not achieve significant tissue 
distribution.28  As a result, various formulations are used to target siRNA distribution to 
tissues, and to facilitate their uptake into the relevant cell type.  One approach that has 
been used successfully in vivo, including in rodents, non-human primates, and humans, 
employs IV delivery of siRNAs in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs).29,30,31,32  These LNPs, with

Page 34 of 109 
their small size (<100 nm) and low surface charge, can pass through the fenestrated 
vascular endothelium of the liver.  Endocytosis of the intact LNPs, followed by fusion 
with the endosomal membrane and release of the siRNA into the cytoplasm, results in the 
siRNA engaging the endogenous RNAi machinery described above leading to targeted 
degradation of the mRNA, and a consequent reduction in target protein levels. 33,34 
1.1.3 PATISIRAN 
Patisiran comprises a small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) which is specific for 
TTR, and is formulated in a hepatotropic lipid nanoparticle (LNP) for intravenous (IV) 
administration.35  This TTR siRNA has a target region within the 3’UTR region of TTR 
gene to ensure and confirm homology with WT TTR as well as all reported TTR 
mutations.  Following LNP-mediated delivery to the liver, patisiran targets TTR mRNA 
for degradation, resulting in the potent and sustained reduction of mutant and WT TTR 
protein via the RNAi mechanism.   
Since circulating TTR is almost exclusively synthesized in the liver, the IV 
administration of patisiran is postulated to reduce the level of precursors that lead to 
amyloid fibril deposition, resulting in clinical benefit to patients with FAP.   
1.1.4 Therapeutic Hypothesis 
Patisiran is a novel investigational agent intended for the treatment of FAP, a serious and 
life-threatening orphan disease. The therapeutic hypothesis that systemic amyloidoses can 
be managed by reduction in circulating levels of amyloidogenic protein has been 
validated in other acquired (e.g., immunoglobulin light chain systemic [AL], or amyloid 
A [AA]) and hereditary (e.g. Fibrinogen A α-chain, ApoA1) amyloidosis.  The 
experience from these systemic amyloidotic disorders,36,37,38,39 as well as the liver 
transplant data in FAP, suggest that lowering of the circulating amyloidogenic protein by 
at least 50% is required to impact the clinical course of the disease, with reductions in 
protein beyond 50% providing further incremental improvements in outcomes.  It is 
therefore postulated that the >80% suppression in both WT and mutant TTR observed 
upon administration of 0.3 mg/kg patisiran once every 21 days will result in clinical 
benefit in FAP patients with mild to moderate polyneuropathy.  This hypothesis is further 
supported by evidence from tafamidis suggesting that reduction in free TTR monomer 
can slow neuropathy progression in early-stage V30M patients with FAP.10

1.3 
Summary of Clinical Data with Patisiran 
A Phase 1 multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind, single-ascending 
dose clinical study of patisiran in healthy volunteers was completed in the UK.  Patisiran 
was administered as a single 60-minute IV infusion to healthy volunteers at doses of 0.01 
to 0.05 mg/kg.  Patients were premedicated with dexamethasone, H1 and H2 blockers, 
and paracetamol/acetaminophen prior to dosing to minimize the risk of infusion-related 
reactions (IRRs).  Significant pharmacology in terms of TTR protein lowering (>80% 
reduction from pretreatment baseline) was observed at doses ≥0.15 mg/kg.  Transthyretin 
levels showed evidence of recovery beginning at around Day 21 to 28, returning to 
baseline by Day 70. 
An open-label, Phase 2, multiple-ascending dose study of patisiran in ATTR patients with 
FAP (Study ALN-TTR02-002) to determine the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics 
(PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of a 60-70 minute IV infusion of patisiran 
administered once every 3 or 4 weeks for 2 doses has completed enrollment (N=29).  
Preliminary data show >80% TTR knockdown with 0.3 mg/kg after the first and second 
doses (p<0.001), with better sustained suppression of >80% observed throughout the 
dosing interval with the once every 3 week dosing schedule compared with once every 4 
weeks.  In V30M patients, both mutant and wild-type TTR were suppressed to the same 
extent.  Multiple doses of patisiran have been generally safe and well-tolerated, including 
0.3 mg/kg administered once every 3 or 4 weeks with either a 60-minute infusion and 
original premedication regimen (total of 28 mg dexamethasone or equivalent, 
administered the night before and morning of infusion) or a 70-minute step-wise infusion 
(approximately 1 mL/minute for the first 15 minutes followed by approximately 
3 mL/minutes for the remainder of the infusion) and a simplified premedication regimen 
(total of 10 mg dexamethasone or equivalent, administered at least 60 minutes prior to 
infusion).

Patients completing Study ALN-TTR02-002 are eligible to enroll into a Phase 2, 
open-label, extension study (ALN-TTR02-003) designed to evaluate the safety and 
tolerability of long-term patisiran dosing administered to patients with FAP; additional 
information will be evaluated including PK, PD, and clinical activity.  Patients will 
receive 0.3 mg/kg patisiran once every 21 days for approximately 2 years.  Data from this 
study of March 13, 2015 demonstrate a sustained mean serum TTR knockdown of 
approximately 80%, with mean nadir up to 88% between doses, for approximately 16 months 
in patients receiving patisiran 0.3 mg/kg once every 3 weeks (n=20). Neuropathy impairment 
scores were stable through 12 months with mean change in mNIS+7 and NIS of -2.5 and +0.4 
points, respectively. 
Further details on these clinical studies can be found in the patisiran (ALN-TTR02) IB. 
1.4 
Study Design Rationale 
This is a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, 
multinational study of patisiran in FAP patients.  The patients proposed for this study are 
reflective of the FAP population encountered by clinicians in various different countries 
worldwide, including patients with a range of neuropathy severity and broad spectrum of 
TTR mutations.  Disease progression will be assessed by neurological measures and 
functional tests; therefore, the range of baseline neuropathy severity (NIS of 5-130) is 
selected such that the lower end is advanced enough to show significant progression in 
the placebo group, while the upper end is not so advanced as to preclude detection of 
change as a result of a ceiling effect of neuropathy measures or to be confounded by other 
comorbidities. 
The inclusion of placebo as a control allows for a rigorous analysis of the treatment effect 
of patisiran.  However, given the 18-month duration of the study, those patients who have 
evidence of rapid disease progression at 9 months (defined as ≥24 point increase in 
mNIS+7 from baseline [based on an average of 2 measurements] and FAP stage 
progression relative to baseline) will be given the option of discontinuing study drug and 
receiving local standard of care treatment for their FAP.  Such patients will be asked to 
follow a modified study visit schedule and return for their 18-month efficacy assessment 
(blinding will be maintained throughout).  It is expected that fewer than 5% of patients 
involved in the ALN-TTR02-004 study will meet the definition of rapid disease 
progression at 9 months. 
Given the orphan nature of the disease and the significant, progressive morbidities 
associated with FAP, randomization to patisiran or placebo will be performed in a 
2:1 ratio (patisiran:placebo) to increase the probability that patients will receive active 
drug.  Treatment groups will be balanced at entry for NIS (5-49 vs 50-130), early onset 
V30M (<50 years of age at onset) vs all other mutations (including late onset V30M), and 
previous tetramer stabilizer use (tafamidis or diflunisal) vs no previous tetramer stabilizer 
use. 
The primary endpoint for this study is the change from baseline at 18 months in a 
composite measure of neurologic impairment termed modified NIS+7 (mNIS+7), which 
includes a clinical exam-based assessment of neurologic impairment (NIS) combined 
with electrophysiologic measures of small and large nerve fiber function (NCS and QST),

and measurement of autonomic function (postural blood pressure).  The utility of various 
neuropathy endpoints in demonstrating a treatment effect in randomized, controlled 
clinical trials in patients with FAP has been established through Phase 3 studies using the 
small molecule TTR tetramer stabilizers tafamidis and diflunisal.  For these studies, the 
primary efficacy endpoint utilized variations of NIS (NIS-Lower Limbs in the case of 
tafamidis and NIS+7 for diflunisal).  Composite endpoints, such as NIS+7, have been 
found to be more sensitive in detecting abnormalities in patients with generalized 
peripheral neuropathy, such as diabetic polyneuropathy and chronic idiopathic 
demyelinating polyneuropathy, and the reproducibility of composite scores has been 
shown to be greater than for individual tests.  The use of mNIS+7 in this study is 
expected to increase the sensitivity and reproducibility of the measurement of neuropathy 
progression in a heterogeneous group of FAP patients presenting with a broad spectrum 
of disease severity and TTR mutations. 
The 18-month endpoint was selected based on the expected rate of neuropathy 
progression in patients with FAP, derived from a global natural history dataset of 
283 patients from Alnylam collaborators in the USA, Portugal, France, and Italy.  From 
these data, it is estimated that a patient’s mNIS+7 score will have increased by 
approximately 24 points in the placebo group after 18 months, thereby providing 
adequate disease progression for the detection of a treatment effect in the patisiran group. 
1.5 
Dose Selection and Dosing Schedule Rationale 
Given the fundamental role of TTR in the pathogenesis of the disease and the data from 
liver transplantation in FAP, it is postulated that the optimal dose and schedule for 
patisiran is one that will result in the greatest level of sustained TTR suppression with an 
acceptable safety profile.  Based on the data to date from the nonclinical and clinical 
studies with patisiran, >80% maintained suppression of circulating TTR is consistently 
achieved at the 0.3 mg/kg dose administered once every 3 weeks, and this dose was 
generally well tolerated.  Patisiran will be administered every 21 days as a 70-minute IV 
infusion (approximately 1 mL/minute for the first 15 minutes followed by approximately 
3 mL/minute for the remainder of the infusion) with a premedication regimen consisting 
of IV dexamethasone and H1/H2 blockers along with oral paracetamol/acetaminophen 
given at least 60 minutes prior to each infusion.   
The chronic toxicology studies in rodents (6-month duration) and monkeys (9-month 
duration), in which animals safely tolerated 14 doses of patisiran at ≥0.3 mg/kg once 
every 2 or 3 weeks (rats or monkeys, respectively), also supports long-term dosing in 
FAP patients at 0.3 mg/kg once every 21 days. 
1.6 
Risk-Benefit Assessment 
Patisiran is a novel investigational agent intended for the treatment of FAP, a serious and life-
threatening orphan disease with limited treatment options. The therapeutic hypothesis that 
systemic amyloidoses can be managed by reducing circulating levels of amyloidogenic 
protein has been established in other acquired and hereditary amyloidoses.  The experience 
from these systemic amyloidotic disorders, as well as the liver transplant data in FAP, 
suggest that lowering of the circulating amyloidogenic protein could impact the clinical 
course of the disease.  Based on nonclinical and clinical data that showed suppression in

levels of WT and mutant TTR upon administration of 0.3 mg/kg patisiran once every 21 
days, it is possible that long term treatment with patisiran may have a clinical benefit in FAP 
patients with mild to moderate polyneuropathy and that further study is warranted. 
In completed and ongoing clinical studies (ALN-TTR02-001, ALN-TTR02-002 and 
ALN-TTR02-003), single and multiple doses of patisiran have been generally well 
tolerated.  Potential risks of patisiran include the following: 
• Infusion-Related Reactions 
Infusion-related reactions (IRRs) can occur with systemic administration of certain 
biological agents such as liposomes or monoclonal antibodies.  In order to reduce the 
potential for an IRR with patisiran, all patients in this study will be premedicated 
prior to dosing with patisiran or placebo.  The step-wise infusion regimen over 
approximately 70 minutes (starting with a slower infusion rate of approximately 
1 mL/minute for the first 15 minutes before increasing to 3 mL/minute for the 
remainder of the infusion), may further reduce the risk of an IRR. 
• Liver function test abnormalities   
In preclinical studies, patisiran-related increased serum liver markers and 
histopathology in the liver were observed at dosages > 0.1 mg/kg in rats and > 1.0 
mg/kg in monkeys.  In general, all of the findings were not observed or were 
observed at lower severity at the end of the 60-90 day dose free period, indicating that 
the toxicities were reversible.  In clinical studies to date, there have been no clinically 
significant changes in liver function tests in either the single-dose or multiple-dose 
studies. Patients in the study are monitored for liver function via serial laboratory 
assessments. 
• Vitamin A Lowering 
The suppression of serum levels of TTR and RBP is expected to result in the lowering 
of circulating vitamin A levels.  Preclinical and clinical data have shown that the 
lowering of circulating vitamin A associated with suppression of RBP does not result 
in severe vitamin A deficiency.  Furthermore, there are individuals with RBP/TTR 
mutations who have life-long low levels of circulating vitamin A and are essentially 
in good health, suggesting that there are compensatory transport mechanisms for 
vitamin A that are yet undescribed.40  This has also been confirmed in TTR knockout 
mice, which do not exhibit any manifestations of vitamin A deficiency, with vitamin 
A uptake by most tissues continuing in the absence of RBP.41  Provided there is 
adequate vitamin A in the diet, tissue stores of vitamin A should not be affected by 
the lowering of TTR and RBP.  However, as the vitamin A content of the diet may 
vary between different countries and different individuals within a country, all 
patients on the study will be asked to take a daily supplement containing the 
recommended daily allowance of vitamin A.  Patients should have started vitamin A 
supplementation by the time they start his/her first dose of patisiran or placebo. 
• Osteoporosis 
Patients with FAP may be at risk for osteoporosis.42 In addition, as part of the 
premedication regimen administered prior to patisiran dosing every three weeks, FAP

patients participating in this study are given glucocorticoids, a drug known to have 
the potential to reduce bone mineralization.  If there are no medical contraindications, 
and per investigator judgment and local standard of care, study participants should, if 
appropriate, receive therapy for the prevention and early treatment of osteoporosis 
such as: calcium and vitamin D supplementation, bisphosphonates, calcitonin, 
parathyroid hormone, estrogen agonist/antagonist or combination therapies. 
Further guidance to the investigator can be found in the IB.

STUDY PLAN 
3.1 
Overall Design 
This is a multicenter, multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 
Phase 3 study designed to demonstrate the clinical efficacy of patisiran (ALN-TTR02) 
and to establish the safety of chronic dosing in adult patients with FAP.  A schematic of 
the study design is presented in Figure 1. 
The duration of patient participation in this study is approximately 21 months.  Patients 
will be screened within 42 days prior to administration of study drug.  Consented eligible 
patients will be randomized to receive either patisiran or placebo (2:1 ratio, patisiran to 
placebo) once every 21 days for 78 weeks.  Treatment groups will be balanced at entry 
for NIS (5-49 vs 50-130), early onset V30M (<50 years of age at onset) vs all other 
mutations (including late onset V30M), and previous tetramer stabilizer use (tafamidis or 
diflunisal) vs no previous tetramer stabilizer use.  
Prior to dosing, patients will receive premedications in order to reduce the risk of 
experiencing an IRR.  The premedications will be administered at least 60 minutes prior 
to the start of infusion of study drug.  Blinded study drug will be administered as a 70-
minute IV infusion (approximately 1 mL/minute for the first 15-minutes followed by 
approximately 3 mL/minute for the remainder of the infusion).  In addition to returning to 
the site for dosing of study drug once every 21 days, patients will also return for out-
patient visits at 9 and 18 months for efficacy assessments (see Section 6 for details).  The 
study personnel performing these assessments will be blinded to the results of any 
previous assessments (e.g., Screening/Baseline, Baseline, or 9-month assessments). 
At the 9-month time point, if the clinical adjudication committee determines that a patient 
is exhibiting rapid disease progression (defined as ≥24 point increase in mNIS+7 from 
baseline [based on an average of 2 measurements] and FAP stage progression relative to 
baseline, see Section 4.6), the patient’s treating physician will provide the patient with the 
option of discontinuing study drug and receiving local standard of care treatment for 
FAP.  Patients who discontinue study drug will remain on study through completion of 
the 18-month efficacy assessments, following a modified visit schedule as shown in 
Table 1-3 and described in Section 6.4.  Blinding will be maintained throughout. Patients 
who complete the 18-month efficacy assessments can elect to participate in an extension 
study in which patients will receive open-label administration of 0.3 mg/kg patisiran once 
every 21 days. 
A Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will be implemented for the study and will 
operate under a prespecified charter.

Efficacy Assessments 
Efficacy parameters will include the following (baseline evaluations will be conducted as 
well as evaluations at 9 and 18 months): 
• Neurologic impairment will be assessed using the mNIS+7 composite score.  The 
mNIS+7 includes the modified NIS (weakness and reflexes), NCS Σ5, QST, as well 
as autonomic assessment through postural blood pressure; 
• Patient-reported QOL will be evaluated using the Norfolk QOL-DN and the EQ-5D.  
Disability will be reported by patients using the R-ODS; 
• Autonomic symptoms will be assessed using the COMPASS-31; 
• Motor function assessments to be evaluated include NIS-W, timed 10-meter walk 
test, and grip strength test; 
• PND score and FAP stage; 
• Nutritional status will be assessed using mBMI; 
• Pathologic evaluation of sensory and autonomic innervation will be evaluated by 
IENFD analysis and quantitation of SGNFD via tandem 3 mm skin punch biopsies 
taken from the leg; 
• Neurologic impairment will also be assessed by NIS+7 (including full NIS, NCS, 
VDT, and HRdb); 
• Cardiac structure and function will be assessed through echocardiograms as well as 
measurement of serum levels of NT-proBNP and troponin I. 
3.3 
Safety Assessments 
Safety will be assessed throughout the study by collecting adverse events (AEs; including 
serious adverse events [SAEs]); clinical laboratory tests, including hematology, clinical 
chemistry (including liver function tests), thyroid function parameters, and urinalysis; 
measurement of anti-drug antibodies; electrocardiograms; vital signs; physical 
examination findings; and ophthalmology examinations.   
3.4 
Pharmacodynamic Assessments 
Pharmacodynamic markers assessed serially will include serum TTR, vitamin A, and 
RBP.  Additional blood samples will be collected for exploratory biomarkers related to 
FAP. 
3.5 
Pharmacokinetic Assessments 
The plasma PK evaluation will include, whenever possible, plasma-concentration time 
profiles for siRNA and the novel lipid components in patisiran: DLin-MC3-DMA and 
polyethylene glycol (PEG)2000-C-DMG.  The siRNA, DLin-MC3-DMA, and PEG2000-C-
DMG concentration will be determined for all patients at time points specified in Table 
1-1, Table 1-2, and Table 1-3.  
Urine will be collected with void volume recorded for all patients at time points specified 
in Table 1-1, Table 1-2, and Table 1-3 and to determine renal clearance (CLR) of siRNA

4.4 
Assignment to Treatment Group/Patient Number 
4.4.1 Randomization Procedures 
Patients will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either 0.3 mg/kg patisiran or 
placebo (normal saline 0.9%). 
Patients will be randomized via an interactive response system (IRS).  Either designated 
unblinded site personnel or the pharmacist may request randomization for the patient, but 
only the pharmacist or unblinded personnel will be allowed to receive the treatment code.  
The treatment code will be delivered to the unblinded personnel and the pharmacist will 
use the necessary number of vials for that patient based on their weight. 
Treatment arms will be balanced at entry for NIS (5-49 vs 50-130), early onset V30M 
(<50 years of age at onset) vs all other mutations (including late onset V30M), and 
previous tetramer stabilizer use (tafamidis or diflunisal) vs no previous tetramer stabilizer 
use. 
4.4.2 Patient Numbering 
At enrollment, each patient will be uniquely identified in the study by a combination of 
his/her center number and screening number.  The center number will be assigned by the 
Sponsor.  Upon signing the informed consent form, the patient will be assigned a 
screening number by the IRS.  The Investigator or his/her delegate will contact the IRS 
(via phone or web) after confirming that the patient fulfills all the inclusion criteria and 
none of the exclusion criteria.  The patient will be randomized via the IRS, assigned a 
patient number and a study treatment.  A combination of the center number, screening 
number, enrollment number, and patient initials will create the unique patient identifier.  
In countries with regulations prohibiting the use of patient initials, a strategy consistent 
with local regulations will be used to generate replacement values for the patient initials. 
4.4.3 Blinding Procedure 
Only the pharmacist and designated site personnel who dispense or administer study drug 
will be unblinded to the study treatment.  All other site personnel will be blinded to the 
treatment.  Study personnel performing assessments related to the efficacy endpoints will 
be different from the Investigator and other personnel managing the patient, and all of 
these study personnel will be blinded to any clinical laboratory results that could

Page 49 of 109 
potentially unblind them (e.g., TTR levels, vitamin A levels, thyroid function tests).  In 
addition, the study personnel performing assessments related to the efficacy endpoints 
will also be blinded to the results of any previous assessments (e.g., Screening/Baseline, 
Baseline, or 9-month assessments). 
All patients will be blinded to treatment and will receive an IV infusion once every 
21 days using identical volumes for placebo and patisiran.  The tubing and the lines will 
be covered so that it will not be possible to detect a difference in active versus placebo 
drug.   
Furthermore, unblinded source documentation containing all descriptions of pharmacy 
preparations and infusions or distribution of study drug or randomization data will be 
stored separate from all other study data/records and from other pharmacy staff not 
participating on the study. 
Unblinding is only to occur in the case of patient emergencies or when necessary from a 
regulatory reporting perspective (e.g., Suspected Unexpected Serious Adverse Reactions 
[SUSAR] occurring in the EU), and at the conclusion of the study. 
Patients who discontinue study drug at 9 months due to rapid disease progression will 
remain blinded throughout the study. 
4.4.4 Breaking the Blind 
In the event that the Investigator requests to know a patient’s study treatment assignment, 
the Investigator will first contact the CRO Medical Monitor to discuss the need for 
unblinding.  In case of an emergency, the treatment allocation for each patient will be 
available from the unblinded site personnel, pharmacist, or the IRS system. 
If a patient becomes pregnant or seriously ill during the study, the blind should be broken 
only if knowledge of the treatment administered will affect treatment options available to 
the patient.  Before breaking the blind, the PI or Sub-investigator should attempt to 
contact the CRO Medical Monitor.  If the Medical Monitor is immediately unreachable, 
the PI or Sub-investigator should break the blind as necessary using the code breaking 
information provided and contact the Medical Monitor as soon as possible.  A record 
should be kept of when the blind was broken, who broke it, and why. 
4.5 
Early Patient Discontinuation or Withdrawal 
Patients are free to discontinue treatment or withdraw from the study at any time and for 
any reason, without penalty to their continuing medical care. 
There are 3 ways for a patient to discontinue treatment and/or withdraw from the study: 
1) The patient or investigator decides to discontinue study treatment, but the patient 
agrees to remain in the study and undergo follow-up assessments (as described in 
Section 6.3). 
2) The patient experiences protocol-defined rapid disease progression at Month 9 
and elects to discontinue study treatment but remain in the study and return for 
protocol-specified visits, including follow-up assessment at Month 18 (as 
described in Section 4.6).  
3) The patient decides to no longer participate in the study and withdraws consent.

Confidential  
Page 50 of 109 
A patient will be considered to have completed the study if the patient does not withdraw 
consent from the study and completes protocol-specified procedures up through the 18-
month efficacy assessment visit. 
4.5.1 Reasons for Treatment Discontinuation or Withdrawal 
The Investigator may discontinue treatment or withdraw a patient from the study if the 
patient: 
• Is in violation of the protocol; 
• Experiences a serious or intolerable AE; 
• Becomes pregnant; 
• Requires a prohibited medication (see Section 5.8); 
• Requests to discontinue treatment or be withdrawn from the study; 
• Is found to be considerably noncompliant with the protocol-required patisiran dosing 
visits. 
A patient may discontinue treatment or be withdrawn from the study if, in the 
Investigator’s opinion, they are unable to continue.  The Investigator will also withdraw 
the patient from the study upon the request of Alnylam, including if Alnylam terminates 
the study.  Upon occurrence of a serious or intolerable AE, the Investigator will confer 
with Alnylam before discontinuing treatment.   
In general, patients who discontinue treatment will be encouraged to remain on the study 
to complete study assessments, particularly the Month 9 and Month 18 assessments, so 
that their experience is captured in the final analyses.  However, a patient may withdraw 
consent to participate in the study at any time. 
Missing an occasional dose of study drug will not necessarily result in the patient being 
withdrawn from the study.  However, if a patient misses 2 consecutive doses of study 
drug, the Investigator at the site and the Medical Monitor will determine whether 
treatment should be discontinued.   
4.5.2 Handling of Withdrawals or Patients who Discontinue from Treatment 
In the event a patient discontinues treatment, withdraws, or is withdrawn from the study, 
the CRO Medical Monitor must be informed immediately.  If there is a medical reason 
for withdrawal, the patient will remain under the supervision of the Investigator for 
protocol-specified safety follow-up procedures.   
If a patient discontinues treatment, withdraws, or is withdrawn from the study, the 
primary reason for discontinuation must be recorded in the appropriate section of the 
CRF and all efforts will be made to complete and report the observations as thoroughly as 
possible.   
If a patient withdraws or is withdrawn from the study, the site staff is to encourage the 
patient to complete the Early Withdrawal visit.  Patients who withdraw or are withdrawn 
from the study, or patients who remain on the study and permanently discontinue study 
treatment for reasons other than rapid disease progression at Month 9 (see Section 4.6),

will not be eligible to participate in the planned extension study in which patients will 
receive open-label administration of 0.3 mg/kg patisiran once every 21 days. 
4.5.3 Replacements 
No replacements will be allowed for patients who withdraw early from the study. 
4.6 
Discontinuation Due to Rapid Disease Progression 
At the 9-month time point, if the clinical adjudication committee determines that a patient 
is exhibiting rapid disease progression (defined as ≥24 point increase in mNIS+7 from 
baseline [based on an average of 2 measurements] and FAP stage progression relative to 
baseline), the patient’s treating physician will provide the patient with the option of 
discontinuing study drug and receiving local standard of care treatment for FAP.  
Patients who discontinue due to rapid disease progression will remain on study through 
completion of the 18-month efficacy assessments (blinding will be maintained 
throughout), following a modified visit schedule as shown in Table 1-3.  Patients who 
complete the 18-month efficacy assessments can elect to participate in an extension study 
in which patients will receive open-label administration of 0.3 mg/kg patisiran once every 
21 days.  Patients who discontinue study drug due to rapid disease progression and also 
decide to withdraw from the study will not have any additional visits after the Day 273 
assessments are completed and will not be eligible to participate in the planned extension 
study. 
4.7 
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Restrictions / Contraception Requirements 
Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test, cannot be 
breastfeeding, and must be using 2 highly effective methods of contraception prior to 
screening, throughout study participation, and for 75 days after the last dose of study 
drug.  Highly effective methods of birth control result in a low failure rate (i.e., less than 
1% per year)43.  Acceptable forms of effective contraception are defined as follows: 
• Hormonal:  established use of oral, implantable, injectable, or transdermal hormonal 
methods of conception; 
• Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD); 
• Placement of an intrauterine system (IUS); 
• Mechanical/barrier method of contraception:  condom or occlusive cap (diaphragm or 
cervical/vault cap) in conjunction with spermicide (foam, gel, film, cream or 
suppository); 
Note:  Failure rates indicate that, when used alone, the diaphragm and condom are not 
highly effective forms of contraception. Therefore the use of additional spermicides 
does confer additional theoretical contraceptive protection.  However, spermicides 
alone are inefficient at preventing pregnancy when the whole ejaculate is spilled. 
Therefore, spermicides are not a barrier method of contraception and should not be 
used alone. 
• Surgical sterilization of male partner (with the appropriate post-vasectomy 
documentation of the absence of sperm in the ejaculate; for female patients on the 
study, the vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner for that patient);

Page 52 of 109 
• Sexual true abstinence: when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of 
the patient. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-
ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception. 
Patients should be instructed to use two different forms of effective contraception from 
the list above.  Examples of two forms of highly effective contraception are as follows:  
• Oral, implantable, injectable, or transdermal contraceptives in conjunction with 
condom or diaphragm and spermicide; 
• IUD in conjunction with condom or diaphragm and spermicide; 
• Surgical sterilization of partner in conjunction with condom or diaphragm and 
spermicide. 
Males (including men who have had vasectomies) with partners of child-bearing 
potential, must agree to use 1 barrier method (e.g., condom) and 1 additional method 
(e.g., spermicidal foam, gel, film, cream, or suppository) of contraception throughout 
study participation and for 75 days (i.e., a whole spermatogenic cycle) after the last dose 
of study drug.  Males must also abstain from sperm donation after the first dose of study 
drug through study participation and for 75 days after last dose of study drug. 
Pregnancy reporting guidelines are provided in Section 8.12.

STUDY MEDICATION 
5.1 
Presentation of Study Drug 
Patisiran (ALN-TTR02) Solution for Injection is an RNAi therapeutic consisting of an 
siRNA targeting TTR mRNA formulated in a LNP.  The patisiran drug product is a 
sterile formulation of TTR siRNA with lipid excipients (DLin-MC3-DMA, DSPC, 
cholesterol, and PEG2000-C-DMG) in isotonic phosphate buffered saline.  Patisiran 
Solution for Injection contains 2 mg/mL of TTR siRNA drug substance. 
The patisiran drug product is packaged in 10 mL glass vials with a fill volume of 5.5 mL.  
The container closure system consists of a United States Pharmacopeia/European 
Pharmacopoeia (USP/EP) Type I borosilicate glass vial, a Teflon-faced butyl rubber 
stopper, and an aluminium flip-off cap. 
The control drug for this study will be a placebo (normal saline 0.9% for IV 
administration).  Control drug will be provided by a central supplier. 
5.2 
Preparation of Study Drug 
Each investigational site will be responsible for IV preparation and labeling, according to 
separate handling instructions, and allocating treatments to the patients. 
The pharmacist or unblinded study personnel will prepare the study drug under aseptic 
conditions.  The total amount to be infused into each patient at each dosing visit will be 
200 mL.  To maintain the blind, all IV infusion bags and lines will have amber-colored 
covers added prior to leaving the pharmacy.  
Additional study drug preparation details are provided in the patisiran (ALN-TTR02) 
Pharmacy Manual. 
5.2.1 Preparation of Patisiran 
The amount (in mg) of patisiran to be administered will be determined based on the 
patient’s body weight (kg).  For each dose administered, the weight obtained during the 
previous visit will be used to calculate the dose of study drug.  In the event that the 
weight obtained on the previous dosing day is not available, the weight obtained predose 
on the dosing day can be used for dose calculation.  Patients who weigh 105 kg or more 
will receive patisiran dosing based on an assumption of a body weight of 104 kg. 
Sterile normal saline (0.9% NaCl) will be added to a sterile infusion bag, and the 
calculated volume of patisiran will be withdrawn from the vials and injected into the 
infusion bag. 
5.2.2 Preparation of Placebo 
Normal saline (0.9% NaCl), provided by a central supplier, will be infused into patients 
randomized into the control group.  Depending on the availability, saline may need to be 
withdrawn from a larger bag or additional saline may need to be added to a sterile 
infusion bag to ensure the 200 mL volume.

Drug Administration 
5.3.1 Premedication 
Prior to each dose of study drug, in order to reduce the risk of experiencing an IRR, 
patients will receive the following premedications at least 60 minutes prior to the 
infusion: 
• Intravenous dexamethasone (10 mg) or equivalent; 
• Oral paracetamol/acetaminophen (500 mg) or equivalent; 
• Intravenous H2 blocker (e.g., ranitidine 50 mg, famotidine 20 mg, or equivalent other 
H2 blocker dose); 
• Intravenous H1 blocker: diphenhydramine 50 mg (or equivalent other IV H1 blocker 
available at the study site).  Hydroxyzine or fexofenadine 25 mg per os (PO, orally) 
or cetirizine 10 mg PO may be substituted for any patient who does not tolerate IV 
diphenhydramine or other IV H1 blocker. 
Patients will be started on the above premedication regimen.  However, modifications 
may be made to the premedication regimen after consultation with the medical monitor 
either due to a patient’s inability to tolerate one or more of the premedications or to the 
occurrence of IRRs unresponsive to slowing of the infusion rate. 
• If a patient is having difficulty tolerating the steroid premedication regimen (e.g., 
patient develops uncontrolled hyperglycemia, altered mental status, or other 
complication), then lowering of the steroid premedication may be allowed for that 
patient after consultation with the medical monitor.  
• If after consultation with the medical monitor, it is agreed that an individual patient’s  
steroid premedication will be lowered, then the following steps must be followed: 
1) If the current steroid dosage is 10 mg intravenous dexamethasone or equivalent, 
then the patient may be lowered in increments no greater than 2.5 mg 
intravenous dexamethasone or equivalent. 
2) After each incremental lowering below 10 mg intravenous dexamethasone or 
equivalent, the patient must receive three consecutive intravenous doses of 
patisiran without IRR and continued signs or symptoms of steroid intolerance 
before further reductions in steroid premedications.   
3) The premedication steroid dosage should not be reduced below 5 mg intravenous 
dexamethasone or equivalent. 
Alternatively, if a patient experiences an IRR when 10 mg or less of intravenous 
dexamethasone or equivalent is used as the steroid premedication, then proceed to 
Section 5.9. 
Further details (including a table of equivalent premedications) can be found in the 
patisiran (ALN-TTR02) Pharmacy Manual.

5.3.2 Study Drug Administration 
Patients who are randomized into the active treatment group will receive 0.3 mg/kg 
patisiran once every 21 days (± 3 days).  Patients who are randomized into the control 
group will receive placebo (normal saline 0.9%) once every 21 days (± 3 days). 
The body weight that was obtained during the previous visit must be used to calculate the 
dose of study drug.  In the event that the body weight obtained on the previous dosing 
day is not available, the body weight obtained pre-dose on the dosing day can be used for 
the dose calculation.  Patients who weigh 105 kg or more will receive patisiran dosing 
based on an assumption of a body weight of 104 kg. 
Study drug (either patisiran or placebo) will be administered under the supervision of the 
unblinded site personnel, as a 70-minute IV infusion (approximately 1 mL/minute for the 
first 15 minutes followed by approximately 3 mL/minute for the remainder of the 
infusion).  The study drug will be administered via a controlled infusion device with an 
extension set containing a 1.2 micron filter supplied by Alnylam or designee.  Infusion 
products must not contain polyvinyl chloride, di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (PVC, DEHP).  
As described in Section 4.4.3, the tubing and the lines will be covered so that it will not 
be possible to detect a difference in active versus placebo drug. 
• If the patient experiences an IRR the infusion time may be extended up to 3 hours in 
the event of a mild or moderate IRR. 
1) If the patient experiences a mild or moderate IRR that resolves by slowing the 
infusion rate then no further premedication changes are recommended. 
2) If the patient experiences a severe IRR, then study drug administration will not 
be resumed until the case is discussed with the medical monitor (see Section 
5.9).   
• If the infusion time for a patient was extended due to an IRR, that modified infusion 
duration should be continued throughout the duration of the study for that particular 
patient.  Returning the patient’s infusion duration to 70 minutes will require a 
discussion with the medical monitor. 
• For the first 3 infusions of study drug on this study, the patient’s infusion site should 
be assessed for signs of any localized reaction during the infusion and for 30 minutes 
after the end of the infusion, and the patient will remain at the clinical site for 1 hour 
following completion of dosing. 
If a patient does not receive a dose of study drug within the dosing window (±3 days), the 
dose will be considered missed and not administered. 
Additional details can be found in the patisiran (ALN-TTR02) Pharmacy Manual. 
In addition, patients will receive an oral daily supplemental dose of the recommended 
daily allowance of vitamin A. 
5.4 
Storage of Study Drug 
All study drug must be stored in a secure, temperature controlled location and may be 
dispensed only by a staff member specifically authorized by the Investigator or by a

pharmacist, as appropriate.  All study drug will be stored upright and refrigerated at 
approximately 5 ± 3oC.  Any deviation from the recommended storage conditions must 
be reported to the CRO and/or Alnylam and use of the study drug halted until 
authorization for its continued use has been given by Alnylam or designee. 
No special procedures for the safe handling of patisiran are required.  An unblinded 
Alnylam Monitor or designee will be permitted, upon request, to audit the supplies, 
storage, dispensing procedures, and records. 
No study product(s) may be administered to any person not enrolled in the study. 
Additional preparation details are provided in the patisiran (ALN-TTR02) Pharmacy 
Manual. 
5.5 
Labeling and Packaging of Study Drug 
All packaging and labeling as well as the preparation of patisiran and placebo will be in 
compliance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) specifications, as described in the 
Manufacture of Investigational Medicinal Products Volume 4 Annex 13, and any other or 
local applicable regulations. 
Study drug labels will include all appropriate local labeling requirements on the vial and 
external label.  Sample labels will be submitted to health authorities, per local country 
submission requirements.  
5.6 
Measurement of Patient Compliance 
Treatment compliance with study drug administration is dependent on the proper 
preparation and administration of IV infusions by unblinded study site personnel as well 
as attendance by the patient to the clinic.  Treatment compliance with study drug 
administration will be verified by unblinded study staff observation.  A dose will be 
considered completed if 80% or more of the total volume of the IV solution has been 
administered to the patient.  Patients will be permitted to miss an occasional dose of study 
drug.  However, if a patient misses 2 consecutive doses, the PI, in consultation with the 
Medical Monitor, will discuss whether the patient will be able to continue on the study. 
Patients failing to complete the 18-month efficacy assessment visit will not be eligible to 
receive patisiran on the open-label extension study. 
5.7 
Study Drug Accountability 
The Investigator will maintain accurate records of receipt and the condition of all study 
drugs including dates of receipt.  In addition, accurate records will be kept of the weight 
used to calculate each dispensed patisiran dose, and when and how much study drug is 
dispensed and used by each patient in the study.  Any reasons for departure from the 
protocol dispensing regimen must also be recorded. 
Drug accountability records and inventory will be available for verification by unblinded 
Alnylam Monitor or designee that will not have a role in any other aspect of managing 
the study.  Remaining study drug (all used, partially used, and unused vials) will be 
returned to Alnylam or its specified designee/depot or destroyed at the site according to 
applicable regulations.

Study drug must not be used for any purpose other than the present study.  Study drug 
which has been dispensed for a patient and returned unused must not be redispensed. 
Further instructions about study drug accountability are detailed in the patisiran (ALN-
TTR02) Pharmacy Manual. 
5.8 
Concomitant Medication / Treatment 
Use of the following medications/treatments is prohibited during study participation (with 
the exclusion of patients who have rapid disease progression and discontinue study drug 
after the 9-month efficacy assessments): 
• Any investigational agent other than patisiran; 
• Tafamidis (use prior to screening permitted); 
• Diflunisal (use prior to screening permitted); 
• Doxycycline/TUDCA (use prior to screening permitted); 
• Corticosteroids other than those administered as premedications prior to the dose of 
patisiran, those used to treat an infusion reaction, or topical or inhaled corticosteroids.  
However, for patients with chronic inflammatory disorders (e.g., asthma, rheumatoid 
arthritis, etc.), systemically administered steroids may be permitted provided that: 1) 
the dose is <20 mg/day prednisone or equivalent if administered chronically, or 2) for 
doses ≥20 mg/day, administration is limited to no more than 5 consecutive days. 
Medications and treatments other than those specified above, including palliative and 
supportive care approved by the investigator for disease-related symptoms, are permitted 
during the study. 
Investigator should review over-the-counter (OTC) and or herbal preparations to ensure 
that these are not potentially disease modifying. 
Use of all concomitant medications and treatments will be recorded on the patient’s CRF 
through the time points shown in Table 1-1, Table 1-2, and Table 1-3.  This will include 
all prescription drugs, herbal preparations, OTC medications, vitamins, and minerals.  
Any changes in medications during the study will also be recorded on the CRF. 
Any concomitant medication or treatment that is required for the patient’s welfare may be 
given by the Investigator.  However, it is the responsibility of the Investigator to ensure 
that details regarding the medication or treatment are recorded on the CRF, and coded 
using an internationally recognized and accepted coding dictionary. 
5.9 
Suggested Guidelines for Management of Infusion-related Reactions 
Criteria for categorizing IRRs are provided in Appendix 3. 
• In the event of an IRR, the infusion of study drug may be stopped and the patient 
closely monitored until resolution of the reaction.  Drugs that may be used to 
facilitate resolution and permit resumption of study drug administration include, but 
are not limited to: paracetamol/acetaminophen (or equivalent), additional histamine 
H1/H2 receptor antagonists (eg, ranitidine), NSAIDs, adrenaline, supplemental 
oxygen, IV fluids, and/or corticosteroids.

• Following resolution of a mild or moderate IRR that required interruption of the study 
drug infusion, resumption of administration may occur at the Investigator’s discretion 
at a slower infusion rate (but not to exceed 3 hours) for that dose and for all 
subsequent doses of study drug.  If the infusion is delayed, the administration of the 
infusion should be completed no more than 6 hours from the initial start of the 
infusion.   
•  Study drug administration will not be resumed for any patient following a severe IRR 
until the case is discussed with the Medical Monitor. 
• If after consultation with the medical monitor it is agreed that an individual patient’s  
steroid premedication will be increased then the following steps are recommended: 
1) 
If the IRR occurred while the patient received 10 mg intravenous 
dexamethasone or equivalent at least 60 minutes before the infusion and did not 
resolve with slowing of the infusion rate, then the patient should be increased by 
multiples of 5 mg intravenous dexamethasone or equivalent at least 60 minutes 
before the infusion and/or 5 mg oral dexamethasone or equivalent the night 
before the intravenous infusion.  
2) Increased dose of premedication steroids should NOT exceed the combination of 
20 mg intravenous dexamethasone or equivalent on the day of infusion and 8 mg 
oral dexamethasone or equivalent taken the night before the infusion.  
3) If the IRR occurred while the patient received less than 10 mg intravenous 
dexamethasone or equivalent, then the patient should return to the prior dose of 
intravenous dexamethasone or equivalent that did not result in an IRR. 
The patient’s infusion site should be assessed for signs of any localized reaction during 
the infusion and for 30 minutes after the end of the infusion.  The patient will remain at 
the study site for 1 hour following completion of dosing for observation and completion 
of assessments.  Patients will be instructed to call the Investigator if they experience 
symptoms such as fever, chills, myalgia, or nausea/vomiting after discharge from the site.

STUDY VISITS 
The duration of a patient’s participation in this study is approximately 21 months 
(inclusive of a 42-day screening period and up to a 56-day post last dose study visit).   
Screening evaluations are to be performed within 42 days before receiving the first dose 
of study drug, as indicated in Table 1-1.  Patients determined to be eligible based on 
Screening assessments will receive blinded study drug IV infusion of either patisiran 
(ALN-TTR02) or placebo once every 21 days.  Patients will remain at the study site for 
1 hour following completion of dosing for observation and completion of assessments. 
In order to decrease the variability in the efficacy assessment testing, there will be a 
limited number of sites within any one territory that conduct efficacy assessments at 
Screening/Baseline, Baseline, 9-month, and 18-month visits (referred to as “Central 
Assessment Sites [CAS]”); these sites can also screen, dose, and manage patients.  There 
will also be sites that screen, dose, and manage the patients (“Patient Care Sites [PCS])”, 
while sending the patients to the nearest CAS for their Screening/Baseline, Baseline, 
9- and 18-month efficacy assessments. 
Prior to starting the study and screening patients in the protocol, the CAS and PCS will 
create a delegation of responsibilities document that clearly details which site is 
responsible for which tests and safety parameters to ensure adherence to the protocol.  
This document will become part of the study site specific documentation. 
All patients who discontinue from the study early will return to the study site for their 
Early Withdrawal assessments. 
6.1 
Screening, Screening/Baseline, and Baseline Visits (Days –42 to Day 0) 
Screening evaluations will be conducted over 3 or more visits (Screening, 
Screening/Baseline, and Baseline).  All screening visits must occur within 42 days of the 
first dose of study drug (Day 0).  Table 1-1 provides an overview of the schedule of 
events required at each screening visit. 
Prior to screening activities, the patient will sign and date an informed consent form 
(ICF) and receive a copy of the signed ICF.  No study procedures should be performed 
prior to informed consent being obtained.  The Investigator or another person authorized 
by the Investigator will also sign and date the informed consent prior to giving a copy to 
the patient.  The ICF will be filed in the patient’s medical record. 
In conjunction with the decision of the Medical Monitor(s), patients may be allowed to 
rescreen after a minimum of 5 days have elapsed from their last screening assessment. 
6.1.1 Screening 
The following activities must be performed during the Screening visit as part of the initial 
review of patient eligibility: 
• Assess study eligibility using the inclusion and exclusion criteria; 
• Obtain medical history information, including inquiry into HIV status;

6.1.2 Screening/Baseline Visit 
Patients who meet all of the Screening criteria (including NIS and NCS assessments) will 
complete the screening process during 2 subsequent visits (which will be conducted at 
CAS for patients screened at PCS): a Screening/Baseline visit and a Baseline visit. 
The Screening/Baseline visit must be performed within 21 days prior to the first dose of 
study drug (Day 0). 
The following assessments must be performed during the Screening/Baseline visit: 
• Perform the following efficacy assessments: 
• mNIS+7*;

STUDY ASSESSMENTS 
7.1 
Demographic Data and Medical History 
At the Screening visit, patient demographic data and a complete medical history will be 
obtained, including review of documentation of TTR genotype.  At the 
Screening/Baseline visit and Baseline visit, an interval medical history will be obtained, 
capturing only changes since the Screening visit. 
At the Screening visit, HIV status will be obtained.  The Investigator will assess the 
patient according to the Karnofsky Scale (see Appendix 1) and the New York Heart 
Association Classification of Heart Failure (see Appendix 2). 
7.2 
Efficacy Assessments 
Efficacy assessments will occur at Screening/Baseline, Baseline, 9 months, 18 months, 
and Early Withdrawal (if applicable).  A central neurologic testing core facility will 
review the data derived from the various neuropathy measures at each participating site to 
ensure compliance with testing procedures and quality of the data.  A central 
echocardiography core lab will analyze the echocardiogram data. A core lab will also be 
responsible for processing and analyzing skin punch biopsy samples. 
The study personnel performing assessments related to the efficacy endpoints will be 
blinded to the results of any previous assessments (e.g., Screening/Baseline, Baseline, or 
9-month assessments). 
Further details on performing these assessments will be provided in the Study Reference 
Manual. 
7.2.1 Modified Neurological Impairment Score +7 
The mNIS+7 assessment tool is a composite measure of neurologic impairment which 
includes the following measures: 
• Clinical exam-based neurologic impairment score (NIS-weakness and reflexes); 
• Electrophysiologic measures of small and large nerve fiber function (+7) including: 
• NCS Σ5; 
• QST by body surface area including TP and HP. 
• Autonomic function (postural blood pressure). 
A summary of the scoring of the components of the mNIS+7 is provided in Appendix 4. 
At each time point, 2 independent assessments will be performed.  Each site will make 
every effort to have these assessments performed by the same blinded study personnel, 
who will be different from the Investigator and other personnel managing the patient.  
Assessments are to be performed at least 24 hours (approximately) apart from each other 
but no greater than 7 days apart.  In order to limit potential intra-operator bias, results of 
any of the prior assessments will not be available to the examiner when performing the 
second assessment.

Every effort will be made to use the same devices for NCS and QST for a patient 
throughout the duration of the study.   
7.2.2 Neurological Impairment Score +7 
The NIS+7 consists of the following measures: 
• Full NIS (including weakness, sensation, and reflexes); 
• Electrophysiologic measures of small and large nerve fiber function (+7) including: 
• NCS Σ5; 
• VDT. 
• HRdb. 
A summary of the scoring of the components of the NIS+7 is provided in Appendix 4. 
At each time point, 2 independent assessments will be performed in the same manner as 
described above for mNIS+7.  Every effort will be made to use the same devices for NCS 
and VDT for a patient throughout the duration of the study.

REPORTING ADVERSE EVENTS 
8.1 
Adverse Event Definition 
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigational patient 
administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal 
relationship with this treatment. 
An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal 
laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use 
of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. 
Disease progression (including worsening of neuropathy impairment) will not be 
considered an AE. 
All IRRs will be recorded as AEs. 
For patients who meet the criteria for rapid disease progression at Month 9 and receive 
their last dose of study drug on Day 252 but remain on the study, AEs will be followed 
through Day 294.  Following Day 294, only study-procedure-related AEs will be 
collected (e.g., skin-biopsy-related AE, venipuncture-related AE).   
8.2 
Serious Adverse Event Definition 
An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: 
• Results in death; 
• Is life-threatening (an event which places the patient at immediate risk of death from 
the event as it occurred.  It does not include an event that had it occurred in a more 
severe form might have caused death); 
• Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; 
• Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; 
• Is a congenital anomaly or birth defect; 
• An important medical event that may not be immediately life-threatening or result in 
death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the patient or may require intervention to 
prevent one of the other outcomes listed in the definition above (e.g., such events 
include allergic bronchospasm, blood dyscrasias or convulsions, or the development 
of drug dependency or abuse). 
8.3 
Eliciting Adverse Event Information 
The patient should be asked about medically relevant changes in his/her health since the 
last visit.  The patient should also be asked if he/she has been hospitalized, had any 
accidents, used any new medications, or changed concomitant medication routines (both 
prescription and OTC). 
In addition to patient observations, AEs will be documented from any clinically relevant 
laboratory findings, physical examination findings, ECG changes, or other findings.

Page 85 of 109 
8.4 
Adverse Event Reporting 
The Investigator is responsible for reporting all AEs that are observed or reported after 
the first dose of study drug regardless of their relationship to study drug through until the 
end of the reporting periods defined in Section 8.5.  For patients who meet the criteria for 
Rapid Disease Progression at Month 9 and receive their last dose of study drug on 
Day 252 but remain on the study, AEs will be followed through Day 294.  Following 
Day 294, only study-procedure-related AEs will be collected (e.g., skin-biopsy-related 
AE, venipuncture-related AE).   
Any medical condition that is present when a patient is screened and does not deteriorate 
should not be reported as an AE.  However, if it does deteriorate at any time during the 
study, it should be reported as an AE. 
All AEs must be fully recorded in the site’s source records and in the patients’ CRF, 
whether or not they are considered to be drug-related.  Each AE should be described in 
detail: onset time and date, description of event, severity, relationship to investigational 
product, action taken, and outcome (including time and date of resolution, if applicable). 
Adverse events should be followed through until the end of the reporting periods defined 
in Section 8.5 or until recovery to the normal state has been achieved, whichever occurs 
first.  In the event of a patient not returning to the clinical unit, the outcome of this event 
will be recorded as lost at follow-up. 
For patients who withdraw from the study early, ongoing AEs will be followed until 
resolution or 28 days from last dose, whichever occurs first. 
8.5 
Adverse Event Reporting Period 
AEs and SAEs will be reported according to the following timeframes: 
• For patients who complete the study, AEs will be assessed through the End of Study 
visit on Day 567 or the Follow-up visit on Day 602 (depending whether or not the 
patient plans to roll over to the open-label extension study).  All AEs that occur after 
the start of study drug administration on Day 0 must be reported in detail on the 
appropriate CRF page and followed to satisfactory resolution, or through the end of 
study visit on Day 567 or Day 602 (depending whether or not the patient plans to roll 
over to the open label extension study) after the last dose of study drug 
administration.  SAEs will be followed through the end of study visit on Day 567 or 
Day 602 (depending whether or not the patient plans to roll over to the open label 
extension study), or until satisfactory resolution, or until the SAE is considered by the 
Investigator to be chronic or the patient is stable, whichever occurs first. 
• For patients who meet the criteria for Rapid Disease Progression at Month 9 and 
receive their last dose of study drug on Day 252 but remain on the study, AEs will be 
followed through Day 294.  Following Day 294, only study-procedure-related AEs 
will be collected (e.g., skin-biopsy-related AE, venipuncture-related AE).  SAEs will 
be followed by the Investigator until satisfactory resolution or the Investigator deems 
the SAE to be chronic or stable.

• For patients who withdraw from the study early, ongoing AEs will be followed until 
resolution or 28 days from last dose, whichever occurs first.  SAEs will be followed 
by the Investigator until satisfactory resolution or the Investigator deems the SAE to 
be chronic or stable. 
8.6 
Assessment of Causality 
Causal relationship assessment to drug treatments is required for purposes of reporting 
AEs.  To promote consistency, the following guidelines should be taken into 
consideration along with good clinical and scientific judgment when determining the 
relationship of drug treatments to an AE: 
Definitely Related: A clinical event, including laboratory test abnormality, occurring 
in a plausible time relationship to the medication administration, 
and which cannot be explained by concurrent disease or other 
drugs or chemicals.  The response to withdrawal of the drug 
should be clinically plausible. 
Possibly Related: 
A clinical event, including laboratory test abnormality, with a 
reasonable time sequence to the medication administration, but 
which could also be explained by concurrent disease or other 
drugs or chemicals.  Information on the drug withdrawal may be 
lacking or unclear. 
Unlikely Related: 
A clinical event, including laboratory test abnormality, with little 
or no temporal relationship to medication administration, and 
which other drugs, chemicals, or underlying disease provide 
plausible explanations. 
Not Related: 
A clinical event, including laboratory test abnormality, that has no 
temporal relationship to the medication or has more likely 
alternative etiology. 
8.7 
Assessment of Severity 
Adverse events are to be graded according to the categories detailed below. 
Mild: 
Mild events are those which are easily tolerated with no 
disruption of normal daily activity. 
Moderate: 
Moderate events are those which cause sufficient discomfort to 
interfere with daily activity. 
Severe: 
Severe events are those which incapacitate and prevent usual 
activity. 
Changes in severity should be documented in the medical record to allow assessment of 
the duration of the event at each level of severity.  Adverse events characterized as 
intermittent require documentation of the start and stop of each incidence.  When changes

Page 87 of 109 
in the severity of an AE occur more frequently than once a day, the maximum severity 
for the experience that day should be noted.  If the severity category changes over a 
number of days, then those changes should be recorded separately (with distinct onset 
dates). 
8.8 
Action Taken for Adverse Event 
Action taken in regards to study drug will be defined as: 
• None; 
• Infusion interrupted and restarted at a later time; 
• Infusion stopped and was not restarted at a later time; 
• Infusion cycle delayed. 
8.9 
Outcome of Adverse Event 
Outcome will be defined as: 
• Resolved (with or without sequelae); 
• Ongoing; 
• Lost to follow-up. 
8.10 
Coding of Adverse Events 
The Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) will be used to code AEs. 
8.11 
Serious Adverse Event Reporting 
An assessment of the seriousness of each AE will be made by the Investigator.  Any AE 
and laboratory abnormality that meets the above seriousness criteria (Section 8.2) must 
be reported immediately to the CRO, always within 24 hours from the time that site 
personnel first learn of the event.  All SAEs must be reported regardless of the 
relationship to study drug. 
The initial report should include at least the following information: 
• Patient’s study number; 
• Description and date of onset of the event; 
• Criterion for serious; 
• Preliminary assignment of causality to study drug. 
SAE reporting will be via electronic data capture (EDC). 
To report the SAE, complete the SAE form electronically in the electronic data capture 
(EDC) system for the study.  When the form is completed, 
Safety personnel 
will be notified electronically and will retrieve the form.  If the event meets serious 
criteria and it is not possible to access the EDC system, send an email to 
 
 
 
 or call the 
 SAE hotline (phone

24 hours of awareness.  When the EDC system becomes available, the SAE information 
must be entered into the EDC system within 24 hours of the system becoming available.  
 Safety personnel will be available for SAE reporting on a 24-hour basis.  
Incoming reports will be reviewed during normal business hours. 
 
Within 24 hours of receipt of follow-up information, the investigator must update the 
SAE form electronically in the EDC system for the study and submit any supporting 
documentation (e.g., patient discharge summary or autopsy reports) to 
 Safety 
personnel via fax or e-mail.  If it is not possible to access the EDC system, refer to the 
procedures outlined above for initial reporting of SAEs.  
Appropriate remedial measures should be taken by the Investigator using his/her best 
medical judgment to treat the SAE.  These measures and the patient’s response to these 
measures should be recorded.  All SAEs, regardless of relationship to study drug, will be 
followed by the Investigator until satisfactory resolution or the Investigator deems the 
SAE to be chronic or stable.  Clinical, laboratory, and diagnostic measures should be 
employed by the Investigator as needed to adequately determine the etiology of the event.   
The Investigator will be responsible for reporting all SAEs to the local independent ethics 
committee (IEC) or Institutional Review Board (IRB) when required by national 
regulations. 
Alnylam or its representative will be responsible for the reporting of all relevant events to 
the concerned regulatory authorities according to all applicable regulations. 
In Europe, in accordance with the Directive 2001/20/EC, the Competent Authorities and 
the Ethics Committees in the concerned Member States will be notified of fatal and life-
threatening Suspected Unexpected Serious Adverse Reactions (SUSARs) as soon as 
possible but no later than 7 calendar days after Alnylam or its representative has first 
knowledge of the minimum criteria for expedited reporting.  Non-fatal and non-life-
threatening SUSARs should be reported no later than 15 calendar days after Alnylam or 
its representative has first knowledge of them. 
The Investigator may be informed by Alnylam or its representative of SAEs from other 
Investigators or clinical studies which may have relevance to this clinical study.  These 
SAEs should also be reported promptly to the IEC/IRB that approved the study.  All SAE 
reports should be transmitted to the IEC/IRB with a cover letter or transmittal form, and a 
copy of that transmittal should be maintained in the Investigator’s files and forwarded to 
Alnylam as part of the TMF on study completion.

Pregnancy Reporting 
A female patient with a positive pregnancy test at Screening is ineligible for this study.  If 
a female patient is found to be pregnant during the course of the study or during the 
first month after receiving the last dose of study drug, the Investigator should report the 
pregnancy to the CRO within 24 hours of being notified of the pregnancy.  Details of the 
pregnancy will be recorded on the pregnancy reporting form.  The patient should receive 
any necessary counseling regarding the risks of continuing the pregnancy and the 
possible effects on the fetus.

The pregnancy should be followed by the Investigator until completion. At the 
completion of the pregnancy, the Investigator will document the outcome of the 
pregnancy.  If the outcome of the pregnancy meets the criteria for an SAE 
(i.e., postpartum complication, spontaneous abortion, stillbirth, neonatal death, or 
congenital anomaly), then the Investigator should follow the procedures for reporting an 
SAE outlined above. 
Pregnancy occurring in the partner of a patient participating in the study should also be 
reported to the Investigator, who will then report this to the CRO and follow to outcome 
as described above.

STATISTICAL METHODS 
9.1 
Sample Size 
Approximately 200 patients will be enrolled in this study.  Of those 200 patients, no more 
than 40 patients will have a NIS range of 101 to 130.  An mNIS+7progression rate 
(primary endpoint) in the placebo group of 24 ± 16 points in 18 months was estimated 
using natural history data from FAP patients.  A sample of 154 patients provides 90% 
power for a 2-sided test with an 8.95 point (37.5%) mean difference between treatment 
groups in the primary endpoint at 2-sided alpha = 0.05.  Assuming a 25% random 
premature discontinuation rate (due to liver transplantation or other factors), the sample 
size for this study is approximately 200.  Additional patients may be enrolled based on a 
recommendation to increase the sample size in the interim analysis. 
9.2 
Statistical Methodology 
A full statistical analysis plan will be finalized prior to database lock. 
9.2.1 Populations to be Analyzed 
The following patient populations (i.e., analysis sets) may be evaluated and used for 
presentation of the data: 
• Modified ITT (mITT) population:  All patients who were randomized and received at 
least 1 dose of study drug; 
• Per protocol (PP) population:  All patients who completed the 18-month efficacy 
assessment visit and did not have any major protocol violations; 
• Safety population:  All patients who received at least 1 dose of study drug (analyzed 
as treated, not as randomized). 
The primary population for efficacy analyses will be the mITT population; key efficacy 
results will also be analyzed secondarily for the PP population.  For efficacy analyses, 
patients will be grouped according to the treatment to which they were randomized.  The 
primary population for safety analysis will be the safety population.  Patients will be 
grouped according to treatment received for summaries of safety. 
9.2.2 Baseline Evaluations 
Demographic and baseline disease characteristic data will be summarized.  Data to be 
tabulated will include sex, age, and race, as well as disease-specific information. 
9.2.3 Efficacy Analyses 
9.2.3.1 Primary Efficacy Endpoint 
The primary analysis will compare change in mNIS+7 from baseline between treatment 
groups of the mITT population.  An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model, with 
baseline mNIS+7 value and age as continuous covariates and genotype (V30M vs Non-
V30M), prior tetramer stabilizer (tafamidis or diflunisal) use (Yes vs No), and treatment 
group (patisiran [ALN-TTR02] vs Placebo) as factors will be employed to analyze the 
primary mNIS+7 endpoint.  The mNIS+7 change from baseline will be assessed at 
78 weeks.  Primary endpoint data that are missing will be inferred using multiple

imputation (MI) (see Section 9.2.10).  Analyses will be conducted using PROC MI and 
PROC MIANALYZE in SAS 9.2 (or later).  The efficacy of patisiran will have been 
established if the estimate of the parameter associated with treatment variable 
demonstrates that patisiran improves mNIS+7 relative to placebo with a p-value (2-sided) 
less than or equal to 0.05, based on the MI methodology. 
Sensitivity analyses will assess the robustness of the primary analysis in the mITT and PP 
populations for different methods of handling missing data, including mixed model 
repeated measures (MMRM), complete cases (CC), and last observation carried forward 
(LOCF). 
9.2.3.2 Secondary Efficacy Endpoints 
Secondary efficacy endpoints will be analyzed using methods similar to those employed 
for the primary analysis, e.g. ANCOVA with multiple imputations, as appropriate.  
Type I error control for secondary endpoints will be achieved by a hierarchical ordering 
procedure.  Endpoints will be tested in the following prespecified hierarchy: 
• Norfolk QOL-DN questionnaire; 
• NIS-W score; 
• mBMI; 
• Timed 10-meter walk test; 
• COMPASS-31. 
If and only if a comparison is significant at p<0.05, the next endpoint in the hierarchy 
may be tested.  
9.2.3.3 Exploratory Efficacy Endpoints 
Continuous exploratory efficacy variables, including those closely related to the mNIS+7 
primary endpoint, may be compared using methods similar to those employed for the 
primary analysis, e.g. ANCOVA with multiple imputations, as appropriate.  Binary 
secondary endpoints will be assessed by the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test, stratified by 
the randomization stratification factors.   
9.2.4 Safety Analyses 
A summary of study drug exposure, including the durations of the infusions and doses, 
and the proportions of patients with modifications in the durations of infusions will be 
produced. 
Adverse events will be summarized by MedDRA system organ class and preferred term.  
Separate tabulations will be produced for all treatment emergent AEs, treatment-related 
AEs (those considered by the Investigator as at least possibly drug related), SAEs, and 
discontinuations due to AEs.  By-patient listings will be provided for deaths, SAEs, and 
events leading to discontinuation of treatment. 
Descriptive statistics will be provided for clinical laboratory data and vital signs data, 
presented as both actual values and changes from baseline relative to each on-study 
evaluation and to the last evaluation on study.

Descriptive statistics will be provided for ECG interval data and presented as both actual 
values and changes from baseline relative to each on-study evaluation and to the last 
evaluation on study. Details of any abnormalities will be included in patient listings. 
9.2.5 Pharmacodynamics 
Summary tables and graphical displays of observed values and changes from baseline in 
serum TTR will be used to assess the durability of suppression over the course of the 
study.  Similar analyses will be performed for the secondary PD biomarkers (RBP and 
vitamin A). 
9.2.6 Pharmacokinetics 
Pharmacokinetic analyses will be conducted using non-compartmental and/or 
compartmental evaluation.  Whenever possible, the PK parameters of siRNA, 
DLin-MC3-DMA, and PEG2000-DMG (lipid) in sparse plasma samples collected from all 
patients.  PK parameters will be calculated using a validated version of WinNonlin® 
Enterprise (Version 5.2 or higher) with NCA Model 200.  
Population PK analyses, will be performed whenever possible, on available siRNA, 
DLin-MC3-DMA, and PEG2000-C-DMG from sparse plasma samples obtained from all 
patients during the duration of the study using Phoenix NLME (Version 1.1 or later).  
Summary tables and figures and inferential statistics will be generated with Phoenix 
NLME (Version 1.1 or later) or similar software.  
Pharmacokinetic/PD analysis will be conducted whenever possible, of sparse plasma 
samples collected during the study period.  The analysis will include, but not limited to, 
the determination of the relationship between exposure to siRNA, DLin-MC3-DMA, and 
PEG2000-C-DMG and the extent of suppression of TTR, RBP, and vitamin A and their 
correlation will be evaluated.  Correlation between TTR versus RBP and vitamin A will 
also be performed.  The strength of the relationship will be assessed using statistical 
estimators.  As part of the PK/PD analysis, additional PD baseline analysis on serum 
TTR, RBP, and vitamin A may be conducted to include the PD data obtained post-PD 
recovery period.  The PD and PK/PD analysis will be performed with WinNonLin or 
Phoenix NLME (Version 1.1 or later) or similar software.  The PD and PK/PD 
parameters summary tables and figures and inferential statistics will be generated and 
will not be limited to descriptive statistics.  
9.2.7 Summary of Efficacy Assessments 
Summary statistics of observed values and changes from baseline will be provided for the 
mNIS+7 composite score. Summaries will also be provided for the components of the 
composite score (e.g., the NIS weakness and reflex scores, the NCS Σ5, and QST values). 
The NIS+7 score, including its components (e.g. full NIS, HRdb, VDT) will also be 
summarized. 
Patient reported quality of life and disability will be assessed by summary statistics for 
the Norfolk QOL-DN, EQ-5D, and R-ODS. Summary statistics will be provided for 
observed values and changes from baseline.  Patient reported autonomic neuropathy 
symptoms will be assessed by descriptive statistics for the COMPASS-31.

Descriptive statistics will also be provided for observed values and changes from baseline 
in motor function (10-meter walk test and test of grip strength), nutritional status 
(mBMI), sensory and autonomic innervation (IENFD and SGNFD), and ambulation 
(FAP stage and PND score).  Descriptive statistics will also be provided for proportions 
of patients in each group that meet the rapid progression definition at 9 months and those 
that meet the responder criterion at 18 months. 
9.2.8 Other Assessments 
The observed values and changes from baseline in burden of disease and healthcare 
utilization will be evaluated and summarized using descriptive statistics. Data on 
suicidality will be summarized by treatment group using descriptive statistics. 
9.2.9 Interim Analysis 
Because the sample size estimates are based on limited data for variance and disease 
progression, it is intended that an interim analysis will be conducted by an independent 
committee when approximately 50% of patients have completed their 9-month mNIS+7 
assessment.  This interim analysis will be blinded and will only estimate the overall 
variance observed in the primary endpoint.  Since the interim analysis examines only the 
pooled variance of all patients in a blinded fashion, it does not require an adjustment to 
the overall alpha level for the test of the primary endpoint.  Based on the results of the 
interim analysis, the committee can recommend either increasing the study size or 
making no adjustment to the sample size.  Details regarding the Interim Analysis 
Committee are provided in Section 10.3.3. 
9.2.10 Missing Data 
Patients who discontinue due to rapid disease progression will have their 78-week 
mNIS+7 change from baseline value imputed using a stepwise regression approach for 
identification of explanatory variables (e.g., demographics, stratifying variables, and 
baseline/9-month mNIS+7 data when available); treatment assignment will not be 
included in the imputation.  Imputed datasets will then be analyzed as complete cases via 
the ANCOVA model specified for the primary analysis, and then combined to produce 
inferential results. Further details on imputations and sensitivity analyses will be included 
in the SAP that will be finalized before database lock.

delegated, the Investigator should maintain a list of appropriately qualified staff to whom 
he/she has delegated specified significant trial related duties. 
10.1 
Data Handling and Quality Assurance 
10.1.1 Case Report Forms 
The Investigator and designees agree to maintain accurate CRFs and source 
documentation as part of these case histories.  Source documents are the originals of any 
documents used by the Investigator or hospital/institution that allow verification of the 
existence of the patient and substantiate the integrity of the data collected during the trial. 
Alnylam will supply CRFs for each patient.  Case report forms must be completed only 
by persons designated by the Investigator.  Corrections must be made so as not to 
obliterate original data and must be identified and dated by the person who made the 
correction.  All data entered into the CRF must also be available in the source documents.  
The Investigator will allow designated Alnylam representatives and regulatory bodies to 
have direct access to the source documents to verify the data reported in the CRFs. 
Each completed CRF must be reviewed and signed by the Investigator or designee in a 
timely manner.  The completed CRF will be the records maintained by Alnylam.  A copy 
of the CRF will remain in the Investigator’s files. 
10.1.2 Monitoring 
The clinical monitor, as a representative of Alnylam, has an obligation to follow the study 
closely.  In doing so, the monitor will visit the Investigators and sites periodically as well 
as maintain frequent telephone and written contact.  The monitor will maintain current 
personal knowledge of the study through observation, review of study records and source 
documentation and discussion of the conduct of the study with the Investigator and staff. 
All aspects of the study will be carefully monitored by Alnylam or its designee for 
compliance with applicable government regulations in respect to Good Clinical Practice 
(GCP) and current standard operating procedures. 
10.1.3 Inspections 
The Investigator will permit trial-related monitoring, audits and review by the IEC or IRB 
and/or Regulatory Authorities, providing direct access to source data/documents.  The 
study may be subject to audit by Alnylam or its representatives or by regulatory 
authorities.  If such an audit occurs, the Investigator must agree to allow access to the 
required patient records.  In the event of an audit, the Investigator agrees to allow 
Alnylam, representatives from Alnylam, or regulatory agencies access to all study 
records.

10.2.1 Institutional Review Board/Independent Ethics Committee 
National regulations and ICH require that approval be obtained from an IRB or an IEC 
prior to participation of patients in research studies.  Prior to the study onset, the protocol, 
any protocol amendments, ICFs, advertisements to be used for patient recruitment, and 
any other written information regarding this study to be provided to a patient or patient’s 
legal guardian must be approved by the IRB or IEC. 
All IRB and IEC approvals must be dated and contain IRB/IEC Chairman or designee 
authorization and must identify the IRB/IEC (e.g., name and address), the clinical 
protocol by title and/or protocol number, and the date of approval or favorable opinion 
was granted for the clinical research. 
No drug will be released to the site to dose a patient until written IRB/IEC authorization 
has been received by Alnylam or designee. 
The Investigator is responsible for obtaining continuing review of the clinical research at 
least annually or more often if specified by the IRB or IEC.  The Investigator must supply 
Alnylam with written documentation of the approval of the continued clinical research. 
The Investigator will make all attempts to ensure that the IRB or IEC is constituted and 
operates in accordance with Federal and ICH GCP and any local regulations. 
10.2.2 Regulatory Authorities 
Regulatory authorities will receive the protocol, amendments, reports on SAEs, and the 
Integrated Clinical Trial Report according to national and any local regulations. 
10.2.3 Modification of the Protocol 
Major changes in this research activity, except those to remove an apparent immediate 
hazard to the patient, must be reviewed and approved by Alnylam and the IRB or IEC 
that approved the study.  Amendments to the protocol must be submitted in writing to the 
Investigator’s IRB or IEC and the Regulatory Authority for approval prior to patients 
being enrolled under the amended protocol. 
10.2.4 Informed Consent Form 
Written informed consent in compliance with 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) § 50 
and ICH will be obtained from each patient prior to undergoing any protocol-specific 
tests or procedures that are not part of routine care.   
Alnylam or the CRO designee will provide an ICF template to the Investigator for use in 
developing a site-specific ICF.  Prior to submission of the site-specific ICF to the IRB or 
IEC, the site-specific ICF must be reviewed and approved by Alnylam or designee.  Any 
changes requested by the IRB or IEC must also be agreed upon.  The final IRB/IEC

At the time of recruitment, each prospective patient (or legal guardian) will be given a 
full explanation of the study and be allowed to read the ICF.  Once the Investigator is 
assured that the patient/legal guardian understands the commitments of participating in 
the study, the patient/legal guardian will be asked to sign and date the ICF.  A copy of the 
fully signed and dated ICF will be given to the patient.  The original will be maintained in 
the patient’s medical record at the site.  All active patients will sign an updated ICF if 
revisions are made to the ICF during the course of the study. 
10.2.5 Study Reporting Requirements 
The Investigator will submit reports of SAEs as outlined in this protocol.  In addition, the 
Investigator agrees to submit progress reports to his/her IRB or IEC per their local 
reporting requirements, or at least annually and at the conclusion of the study.  The 
reports will be made available to Alnylam or designee. 
Deviations from the protocol necessary to protect patient safety should be reported to the 
CRO within 24 hours of knowledge of the event. 
Any communications from regulatory agencies in regard to inspections, other studies that 
impact this protocol or the qualifications of study personnel should be promptly reported 
to the CRO. 
10.2.6 Financial Disclosure Reporting Obligations 
Each Investigator (including principal and any sub-investigators) directly involved in the 
treatment or evaluation of study patients is required to provide financial disclosure 
information according to all applicable legal requirements.  In addition, Investigators 
must commit to promptly updating this information if any relevant changes occur during 
the study and for a period of one year after the completion of the study. 
10.3 
Study Committees 
10.3.1 Data Monitoring Committee 
A Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will be involved in the conduct of this study.  The 
DMC has the responsibility for monitoring the progress of the clinical study and the 
safety of the study participants.  The DMC will perform periodic reviews of data and 
study conduct during the course of the clinical trial, as defined in the DMC Charter for 
this clinical trial.  The membership of the DMC and reporting structure are defined in the 
DMC Charter. 
10.3.2 Clinical Adjudication Committee 
An independent clinical adjudication committee will perform a blinded adjudication of 
the results of those patients who have clinical evidence of rapid disease progression 
(defined as ≥24 point increase in mNIS+7 from baseline [based on an average of 
2 measurements] and FAP stage progression relative to baseline) at 9 months.  Each 
review will follow procedures detailed in the committee’s charter. 
10.3.3 Interim Analysis Committee

implementation of the interim analysis and for the calculations and recommendations 
surrounding whether an adjustment to the sample size is warranted, and if so, the 
appropriate adjustment, based on the study’s primary endpoint data from the interim 
analysis.  The Sponsor, the CROs, and all other parties conducting the study will remain 
blinded to all interim analyses until study completion.  The IAC will follow the procedure 
outlined in the committee’s charter. 
10.4 
Ancillary Research 
Research ancillary to this main protocol may not be performed by individual study sites 
without prior discussion and approval by Alnylam. 
10.5 
Study Record Retention 
Essential documents should be retained for the period of time required by applicable local 
law.  The essential documents include the signed and dated final protocol, signed and 
dated amendments(s), if applicable, signed and dated Curriculum Vitae (CVs) of the 
Investigators, copies of the completed CRFs, signed ICFs, IEC/IRB approval and all 
related correspondence, financial agreements, regulatory approval, drug accountability, 
study correspondence, and patient identification codes.  Records will not be destroyed 
without informing Alnylam in writing and giving Alnylam the opportunity to store the 
records for a longer period of time at Alnylam’s expense. 
The International Conference on Harmonization requires that patient identification codes 
be retained for at least 15 years after the completion or discontinuation of the study. 
10.6 
Discontinuation of the Study by Alnylam 
Alnylam reserves the right to discontinue the study for clinical or administrative reasons 
at any time.  If the site does not recruit at a reasonable rate, the study may be 
discontinued at that site.  Should the study be terminated and/or the site closed for 
whatever reason, all documentation and study drug pertaining to the study must be 
returned to Alnylam or its representative, and the Investigators, IEC/IRB and Regulatory 
Authorities will be promptly informed of the termination and the reason for the decision.  
The Investigator should promptly inform the patients and assure appropriate therapy and 
follow-up. 
10.7 
Study Documentation 
Prior to beginning the study, the Investigator will be asked to comply with ICH E6 and 
21 CFR by providing at least the following essential documents: 
• An original signed Investigator agreement page of the protocol and any amendments; 
• An IEC/IRB and Alnylam approved ICF; 
• IEC/IRB approval of the protocol, and any amendments; 
• Completed and signed FDA form 1572; 
• Curriculum vitae for the Investigator signed and dated by the Investigator indicating 
that it is current; 
• Financial disclosure information (if applicable);

• Other documents which the Investigator should provide before study start include: 
• Curriculum vitae for all Sub-investigators; these should be signed and dated 
by the Sub-investigators indicating that they are current; 
• Financial disclosure information for all Sub-investigators (if applicable); 
• Advertisements for patient recruitment and any other written information to be 
given to patients, family members or legal guardians and IEC/IRB approval of 
any advertisements and any other written information; 
• IEC/IRB composition:  If the Investigator or any of the Sub-investigators is a 
member of the IEC/IRB, assurance that he/she refrained from voting should 
be provided; 
• Laboratory accreditation and reference ranges for any laboratory values for 
local laboratories. 
10.8 
Confidentiality 
The Investigator must ensure that the patients’ anonymity will be maintained.  On the 
CRFs or other documents submitted to Alnylam or designees, patients should not be 
identified by their names, but by the assigned patient number and initials.  If patient 
names are included on copies of documents submitted to Alnylam or designees, the 
names (except for initials) will be obliterated and the assigned patient number added to 
the document.  Documents not for submission to Alnylam (e.g. signed ICFs) should be 
maintained by the Investigator in strict confidence. 
Following the principles of the Good Clinical Practice, if local regulations specify a 
patient’s number and initials will be used to identify the patient on their study records.  
Laboratory samples may be labeled with an independent numbering code, and the label 
will not contain any other personal identification information.  The numbering code 
associated with these labels will be held by the study CRO and Alnylam, thereby 
allowing no unwarranted access to the information.  When reporting results for interim 
safety assessment, the interim analysis, and at the end of the study, the code will be 
shared per standard operating procedures with the responsible member of the 
Biostatistical and Data Management Departments of the CRO.  The numbering code will 
also be held for samples in storage until marketing approval of patisiran (ALN-TTR02) in 
the countries where this study was conducted, or until clinical development of patisiran is 
halted.  Throughout sample collection, storage (limited, staff only access area containing 
locked sample storage, and limited access sample tracking) and processing, the samples 
will only be handled by appropriate personnel per the laboratory’s standard operating 
procedures. 
The Investigator must treat all of the information related to the study and the compiled 
data as confidential, whose use is for the purpose of conducting the study.  Alnylam must 
approve any transfer of information not directly involved in the study.

Publications/Reports 
Following completion of the study, the data may be considered for publication in a 
scientific journal or for reporting at a scientific meeting.  A copy of the manuscript must 
be provided and confirmed received at Alnylam at least 30 days prior to its submission. 
No submission of a manuscript may be made until the results from all of the study sites

centers.  A separate, individual publication of the results of the study will be delayed until 
initial publication of the results of the multicenter study, or a decision not to publish is 
made.  If an initial draft is not produced within 18 months of completion of the study at 
all centers, or the timeframe for publication is not satisfactory, the Investigator may

Appendix 3: Categorization of Infusion-Related Reactions 
 
Signs and symptoms of an infusion-related reaction (IRR) usually develop during or 
shortly after drug infusion and generally resolve completely within 24 hours of 
completion of infusion.  Signs/symptoms may include: allergic reaction/hypersensitivity 
(including drug fever), arthralgia (joint pain), bronchospasm, cough, dizziness, dyspnea 
(shortness of breath), fatigue (asthenia, lethargy, malaise), headache, hypertension, 
hypotension, myalgia (muscle pain), nausea, pruritus/itching, rash/desquamation, 
rigors/chills, sweating (diaphoresis), tachycardia, urticaria (hives, welts, wheals), 
vomiting. 
Categorization of IRRs is as follows: 
 
Categorization 
Description 
Mild 
Mild reaction:  infusion may be continued; if intervention is 
indicated it is minimal and additional treatment (other than 
paracetamol for delayed reactions) is not required. 
Moderate 
Moderate reaction:  requires treatment including more intensive 
therapy (e.g., IV fluids, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory [NSAIDs]) 
in addition to infusion interruption but responds promptly to 
medication.  Treatment is indicated for ≤24 hours. 
Severe 
More than moderate reaction:  not rapidly responsive to medication 
or to interruption of infusion; and/ or prolonged (treatment is 
indicated for >24 hours); recurrence of severe symptoms following 
initial improvement.
