- The interim data include 12 ATTR amyloidosis adult patients with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) with heart failure.
- Interim data from the cardiomyopathy arm of the Phase 1 study of NTLA-2001 showed deep and sustained mean serum transthyretin (TTR) reductions of 93% and 92% at 0.7 mg/kg and 1.0 mg/kg doses, respectively.

- A protocol amendment has been submitted to evaluate a fixed dose corresponding to 0.7 mg/kg in the dose-expansion portion, with enrollment across both arms expected to be completed by the end of 2022, subject to regulatory feedback.
- Price Action: NTLA shares are down 4.13% at $65.75 during the premarket session on the last check Friday. REGN stock closed at $705.85 on Thursday.
