Briefings
A STAT newsletter report from August 2025 suggests Alnylam's rapid growth driven by Amvuttra could surpass Vertex's market cap. The article notes Alnylam's $60 billion valuation and $100 billion target, but explicitly states it is not a direct competitor to Vertex.
Key points
- Alnylam's Amvuttra sales are driving its $60 billion market value toward potentially matching Vertex's $100 billion market cap.
- The report explicitly states Alnylam and Vertex are not direct competitors, despite the valuation comparison.
Context

Limitations
