US RNAi therapeutics company Alnylam Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: ALNY) is expanding its global footprint with the opening of a new development and commercial hub in Maidenhead, UK, with a multi-million pound investment, seemingly undeterred by Britain’s referendum decision to leave the European Union.
In anticipation of substantial growth across Alnylam over the next five years, the office opens with a core clinical development, regulatory affairs and commercial team and space for an additional 100 employees.
"Since our inception in 2002, Alnylam has pioneered new and innovative potential treatments for challenging diseases. This effort has yielded a robust clinical pipeline with 10 programs in development across our three Strategic Therapeutic Areas or STArs," said Akshay Vaishnaw, executive vice president of R&D and chief medical officer at Alnylam.
