24h Move is the share-price change in the day after each event; other market factors may also have contributed.
Recent positive clinical and earnings updates have produced mixed reactions, with several strong fundamental announcements followed by negative or muted moves, suggesting a history of occasional sell-the-news responses.
Over the past months, BridgeBio has reported multiple clinically and commercially significant milestones. On Feb 24, it posted Q4 2025 revenue of $154.2M and full-year revenue of $502.1M, largely from Attruby sales, while also strengthening its balance sheet with $587.5M in cash and new $632.5M 2033 convertible notes. In March, positive Phase 3 FORTIFY interim data and multiple conference presentations highlighted pipeline strength. Today’s long-term acoramidis ATTRibute-CM OLE results extend this narrative of de‑risking key assets and reinforcing Attruby’s franchise durability.

PALO ALTO, Calif., March 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: BBIO) (“BridgeBio” or the “Company”), a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing medicines for genetic conditions, today presented long-term efficacy and safety data from the ATTRibute-CM open-label extension (OLE) trial, demonstrating sustained clinical benefit of acoramidis through Month 54 in patients with ATTR-CM. These data were presented at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) Annual Scientific Sessions & Expo in a late-breaking oral presentation by Prem Soman, M.D., Ph.D. of University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and it was the only ATTR-CM presentation selected for the ACC late-breaker session. These data are now simultaneously published in JAMA Cardiology. Acoramidis is the only selective small molecule, orally administered, near-complete (≥
“Despite dramatic therapeutic advances in the field, many patients with ATTR-CM still continue to suffer progressive heart failure, high mortality risk, and many have limited long-term treatment options,” said Dr. Soman. “The ATTRibute-CM long-term data show that early and continuous treatment with acoramidis can meaningfully change the trajectory of this disease, with sustained reductions in all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, cardiovascular hospitalization, continued mitigation of NT-proBNP progression, and a favorable long-term safety profile. These findings reinforce the importance of early diagnosis followed by prompt, durable treatment to deliver sustained clinical benefit for patients.”
The findings from the OLE trial included:
- At Month 54, continuous acoramidis treatment led to a statistically significant risk reduction of
44.7% in all-cause mortality (ACM) (p<0.0001) and49.3% in cardiovascular mortality (CVM) (p<0.0001) versus placebo-to-acoramidis, which is the earliest timepoint in an open-label extension with this magnitude of risk reduction in these events - Through Month 54, acoramidis mitigated the rise in NT-proBNP versus placebo-to-acoramidis to an extent not seen in the era of disease modifying treatments
- Early and continuous acoramidis treatment stabilized and maintained all measures of heart failure-related QOL scores (KCCQ-OS), which demonstrates that the improvement in duration and quality of life in patients with ATTR-CM by acoramidis is sustained
- Acoramidis continued to be well tolerated with no long-term safety concerns
Three acoramidis posters were also shared at the ACC Annual Scientific Sessions & Expo, which included:
- Long-Term Benefits With Acoramidis on Serum Transthyretin Concentrations and Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Overall Summary (KCCQ-OS) Score in Patients with Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), presented by Sarah Cuddy, M.D. of Brigham and Women's Hospital
- This analysis showed that early and continuous acoramidis treatment stabilized heart failure-related health status and maintained serum transthyretin (sTTR) levels through Month 54. These findings emphasize the need for early diagnosis followed by early treatment in patients with ATTR-CM
- Association Between Early Increase in sTTR with Acoramidis and Long-Term Effects on Heart Failure – Related Health Status in ATTR-CM: Results from ATTRibute-CM, presented by Jan Griffin, M.D. of Medical University of South Carolina
- This analysis showed that an early increase in sTTR at Day 28 with acoramidis was associated with clinically meaningful slower decline in KCCQ-OS score at Month 30 versus placebo in patients with ATTR-CM in ATTRibute-CM
- Treatment Patterns and Preferences in ATTR-CM in the United States: Results from a Real-World Survey, presented by Jill Waldron, MSN, GNP, MS of University of Utah
- This analysis showed that in a real-world survey, physicians were not fully satisfied with treatment for more than half of those prescribed, and more than one-third of patients did not receive treatment at all. Patients were most comfortable with the prospect of oral therapy. These data highlight unmet treatment needs for ATTR-CM patients and importance of shared decision making for therapy selection
Acoramidis is approved as Attruby® by the U.S. FDA and is approved as BEYONTTRA® by the European Medicines Agency (EMA), Japanese Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency, Swissmedic, the Swiss Agency for Therapeutic Products, and the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency with all labels specifying near-complete stabilization of TTR.
More data on the benefit of Attruby for ATTR-CM patients is planned for future medical meetings.
