  • Publication number: 20220323474
    Abstract: Provided herein is a novel method for creating fixed, non-antagonistic molar ratios of drugs in and around the bone environment for desired periods of time. This method enables treating bone and bone-related disease by administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a bone-targeted therapeutic agent able to release a drug payload from the bone surface, in addition to a second therapeutic agent. Such methods are useful in the treatment of bone and bone-related diseases, such as cancer-induced bone disease, osteomyelitis and bone infection, bone pain and inflammatory bone disease, metabolic disease, as well as others.

  • Publication number: 20150105445
    Abstract: The present invention concerns methods and reagents useful in modulating gene expression in a variety of applications, including use in therapeutic, diagnostic, target validation, and genomic discovery applications. Specifically, the invention relates to synthetic chemically modified small nucleic acid molecules, such as short interfering nucleic acid (siNA), short interfering RNA (siRNA), double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), micro-RNA (miRNA), and short hairpin RNA (shRNA) molecules capable of mediating RNA interference (RNAi) against target nucleic acid sequences. The small nucleic acid molecules are useful in the treatment of any disease or condition that responds to modulation of gene expression or activity in a cell, tissue, or organism.

  • Publication number: 20110118335
    Abstract: The present invention concerns methods and nucleic acid based reagents useful in modulating gene expression in a variety of applications, including use in therapeutic, veterinary, agricultural, diagnostic, target validation, and genomic discovery applications. Specifically, the invention relates to multifunctional short interfering nucleic acid (multifunctional siNA) molecules that modulate the expression of one or more genes in a biologic system, such as a cell, tissue, or organism via RNA interference (RNAi). The bifunctional short interfering nucleic acid (multifunctional siNA) molecules of the invention can target more than one regions of nucleic acid sequence in a single target nucleic acid molecule or can target regions of nucleic acid sequence in differing target nucleic acid molecules. The self multifunctional siNA molecules are useful in the treatment of any disease or condition that responds to modulation of gene expression or activity in a cell, tissue, or organism.
