COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF TREATING FACIOSCAPULOHUMERAL MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY
Disclosed herein are polynucleic acid molecules, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods for treating Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy.
Methods and compositions for modulating gene expression using oligonucleotide based drugs administered in vivo or in vitro
Compositions and methods for down modulating target gene expression are disclosed.
MODULATION OF PREKALLIKREIN (PKK) EXPRESSION
Disclosed herein are antisense compounds and methods for decreasing PKK mRNA and protein expression. Such methods, compounds, and compositions are useful to treat, prevent, or ameliorate PKK-associated diseases, disorders, and conditions.
TREATMENT OF AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS AND DISORDERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE SPINAL CORD
The present disclosure relates to AAVs encoding a SOD1 targeting polynucleotide which may be used to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and delivery methods for the treatment of spinal cord related disorders including ALS.
Methods For The Treatment Of APOC3-Related Diseases And Disorders
Described are methods for treating diseases and disorders that can be mediated in part by a reduction in APOC3 gene expression in a human subject in need of treatment, using pharmaceutical compositions that include APOC3 RNAi agents. The disclosed pharmaceutical compositions that include APOC3 RNAi agents, when administered to a human subject in need thereof according to the methods disclosed herein, treat diseases and disorders associated with elevated triglyceride (TG) levels, such as familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS), hypertriglyceridemia, obesity, dyslipidemia, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, hyperlipidemia, abnormal lipid and/or cholesterol metabolism, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, coronary artery disease, hypertriglyceridemia induced pancreatitis, metabolic syndrome, type II diabetes mellitus, chylomicronemia, multifactorial chylomicronemia, or lipodystrophy syndromes including familial partial lipodystrophy.
Modulators of APOL1 Expression
The present embodiments provide methods, compounds, and compositions useful for inhibiting APOL1 expression, which may be useful for treating, preventing, or ameliorating a disease associated with APOL1.
RNAi Agents for Inhibiting Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinase 7 (MMP7), Compositions Thereof, and Methods of Use
Described are RNAi agents, compositions that include RNAi agents, and methods for inhibition of a matrix metallopeptidase 7 (MMP7) gene. The MMP7 RNAi agents and RNAi agent conjugates disclosed herein inhibit the expression of an MMP7 gene. Pharmaceutical compositions that include one or more MMP7 RNAi agents, optionally with one or more additional therapeutics, are also described. Delivery of the described MMP7 RNAi agents to pulmonary cells, in vivo, provides for inhibition of MMP7 gene expression, which can provide a therapeutic benefit to subjects, including human subjects, for the treatment of various diseases including pulmonary inflammation diseases such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
Modulating apolipoprotein (a) expression
Provided herein are oligomeric compounds with conjugate groups targeting apoplipoprotein (a). In certain embodiments, the apo(a) targeting oligomeric compounds are conjugated to N-Acetylgalactosamine. Also disclosed herein are conjugated oligomeric compounds targeting apo(a) for use in decreasing apo(a) to treat, prevent, or ameliorate diseases, disorders or conditions related to apo(a) and/or Lp(a). Certain diseases, disorders or conditions related to apo(a) and/or Lp(a) include inflammatory, cardiovascular and/or metabolic diseases, disorders or conditions. The conjugated oligomeric compounds disclosed herein can be used to treat such diseases, disorders or conditions in an individual in need thereof.
Modulators of diacyglycerol acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2)
The present embodiments provide methods, compounds, and compositions useful for inhibiting DGAT2 expression, which may be useful for treating, preventing, or ameliorating a disease associated with DGAT2.
ANGIOPOIETIN-LIKE 3 (ANGPTL3) IRNA COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
The invention relates to double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) compositions targeting the ANGPTL3 gene, as well as methods of inhibiting expression of ANGPTL3 and methods of treating subjects having a disorder of lipid metabolism, such as hyperlipidemia or hypertriglyceridemia, using such dsRNA compositions.
