OPTIMIZED GENE THERAPY FOR TARGETING MUSCLE IN MUSCLE DISEASES
20230227515 · 2023-07-20 ·

The disclosure provides gene therapy vectors, such as adeno-associated virus (AAV), optimized for delivering a transgene to muscles. The optimized vectors contain constitutive or a muscle-specific promoter to deliver whole body or skeletal/heart muscle-specific transgene expression, respectively, in combination with a transgene cDNA to replace the gene mutation found in a muscle disease with a normal copy of the gene, an internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) to allow for production of a second protein from the same transcript, and a muscle growth factor, to build new muscle growth and strength. For example, the invention provides The disclosure provides gene therapy vectors, such as recombinant adeno-associated vims (rAAV), designed for treatment of GNE myopathy in which the rAAV expresses UDP-GlcNAc-epimerase/ManNAc-6 alone or in combination with a muscle growth factor or muscle transdifferentation factor. The provided AAV replace the mutated GNE gene expression while expressing proteins that stimulate muscle growth.

MUSCLE-TARGETING COMPLEXES AND USES THEREOF

Aspects of the disclosure relate to complexes comprising a muscle-targeting agent covalently linked to a molecular payload. In some embodiments, the muscle-targeting agent specifically binds to an internalizing cell surface receptor on muscle cells. In some embodiments, the molecular payload inhibits activity of a disease allele associated with muscle disease. In some embodiments, the molecular payload is an oligonucleotide, such as an antisense oligonucleotide or RNAi oligonucleotide.
