PALO ALTO, Calif., May 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: BBIO) (“BridgeBio” or the “Company”), a new type of biopharmaceutical company focused on genetic diseases, today announced the Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (ANVISA) has granted marketing authorization for acoramidis, under the brand name BEYONTTRA, for the treatment of wild-type or variant transthyretin amyloidosis in adult patients with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). Acoramidis is a selective small molecule, orally administered near-complete (≥
“The ATTRibute-CM results represent a major advance for patients with ATTR-CM, who often face an earlier and more aggressive course of disease,” said Fábio Fernandes, M.D., Ph.D., Director at the Heart Institute of the Clinical Hospital of the University of São Paulo Medical School (HCFMUSP), and investigator in the trial. “For too long, this community has lived with limited options and delayed recognition of their condition. Seeing a therapy like acoramidis deliver significant reductions in cardiovascular-related hospitalizations, improvements in survival, and preservation of functional capacity and quality of life is profoundly encouraging. These results signal a transformative shift in how we can care for patients across Brazil.”
The approval in Brazil is based on results of the pivotal ATTRibute-CM Phase 3 study of acoramidis, which showed clear benefits on cardiovascular outcomes. ATTRibute-CM evaluated the efficacy and safety of acoramidis in 632 participants with symptomatic ATTR-CM, associated with either wild-type or variant TTR who were randomized 2:1 to receive acoramidis or placebo for 30 months. The study met its primary clinical endpoints at Month 30 by significantly reducing cardiovascular-related hospitalization, improving survival, and preserving functional capacity and quality of life for patients.
“The ANVISA approval of BEYONTTRA marks an important step forward for Brazilian patients living with ATTR-CM. It is a particularly meaningful advance for patients living in Brazil who have long faced limited options for this progressive, life-threatening disease,” said Jonathan Fox, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of BridgeBio Cardiorenal. “This authorization brings new hope to communities where ATTR-CM is increasingly recognized. This also reflects our commitment to ensuring that as many patients as possible in as many countries as possible have access to transformative care. We are profoundly grateful to the patients, families, investigators, and clinical partners whose courage and partnership made this milestone possible.”
Acoramidis was approved as Attruby® by the U.S. FDA in November 2024 and was approved as BEYONTTRA by the European Commission in February 2025, the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (MHLW) Agency in March 2025, and the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency in April 2025 with all labels specifying near-complete stabilization of TTR. Acoramidis is also currently under review by other global regulatory agencies.
BridgeBio will work in partnership with Biopas, a Swixx BioPharma company with an established pharmaceutical commercialization platform in Latin America, to commercialize BEYONTTRA in Brazil. Commercialization efforts are expected to begin in the second half of 2026, ensuring that Brazilian patients with ATTR-CM gain access to acoramidis as quickly as possible.
