Publication number: 20090286849Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for modulating the expression of growth factor gene. In particular, this invention relates to compounds, particularly oligonucleotide compounds, which, in preferred embodiments, hybridize with nucleic acid molecules encoding the Insulin Like Growth Factor I receptor (IGF-I receptor or IGF-IR) and in particular human IGF-IR. Such compounds are exemplified herein to modulate proliferation which is relevant to the treatment of proliferative and inflammatory skin disorders and cancer. It will be understood, however, that the compounds can be used for any other condition in which the IGF-IR is involved including inflammatory condition.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2008Publication date: November 19, 2009Applicant: Antisense Therapeutics Ltd.Inventors: Christopher John WRAIGHT, George Arthur Werther, Nicholas M. Dean, Kenneth W. Dobie
