| Collaboration Revenue | 3. Collaboration Revenue Alnylam Collaboration Agreement In March 2026, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement with Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Alnylam), pursuant to which both parties agreed to a research collaboration to discover and validate novel gene targets for the potential treatment of cardiovascular disease. Under the agreement, both parties nominated and aligned on a set of collaboration targets to move forward into the collaboration in late March 2026. Following such alignment, the parties will conduct in vitro and in vivo validation activities under a mutually agreed research plan and budget for a period of twenty-four (24) months (which may be extended for completion of the work). The Company expects to take primary responsibility for the performance of all in vitro and in vivo validation activities throughout the validation term; Alnylam will reimburse the Company for full-time employees and out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Company in accordance with the agreed-upon research budget. After completion of the validation activities, Alnylam will be solely responsible, at its own expense, for all development, manufacture, regulatory and commercialization activities for any products directed to a collaboration target. The Company is also entitled to a non-refundable upfront platform access fee of up to $10.0 million. The upfront platform access fee was initially subject to variability based on the number of collaboration targets selected and became fixed at $10.0 million upon finalization of the collaboration target list. Reimbursement of research costs represents variable consideration and is excluded from the transaction price at contract inception as such amounts are fully constrained. These amounts are recognized as revenue as the related costs are incurred. The Company concluded that the license and research activities represent a single performance obligation that is satisfied over time. Revenue is recognized using a cost-to-cost input method, which measures progress based on costs incurred relative to total estimated costs under the research plan. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized immaterial collaboration revenue related to the upfront platform access fee and reimbursable research costs incurred during the period. The remaining portion of the upfront payment is recorded as a contract liability and will be recognized as revenue over the remaining validation term as the underlying research services are performed. The Company may also receive future milestone payments of up to an aggregate of $1.1 billion under the agreement. Development and regulatory milestones will be recognized when the underlying milestone event is achieved and it becomes probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Sales-based milestones will be recognized when the related sales occur. As of March 31, 2026, the Company is unable to predict or reasonably estimate the amount or timing of such milestone payments. As of March 31, 2026, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligation under the collaboration agreement was approximately $10.0 million, which the Company expects to recognize over the remaining validation term of approximately 24 months. The transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligation does not include variable consideration related to reimbursable research costs as they are contingent on actual qualifying costs incurred. Milestone payments were considered variable consideration and were also not included in the transaction price as they are fully constrained. The Company will reassess the transaction price at each reporting period as uncertainties are resolved. The following table summarizes activity in the Company’s total contract liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Additions to contract liabilities include $0.6 million of upfront payments from an additional immaterial collaboration arrangement.
