  • Publication number: 20240156960
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions, systems, kits, and methods for expressing at least one therapeutic protein or biologically active nucleic acid molecule in a subject. In certain embodiments, the subject is first administered a composition comprising polycationic structures that is free, or essentially free, of nucleic acid molecules, and then (e.g., 1-30 minutes later) is administered a composition comprising a plurality of one or more non-viral expression vectors that encode at least one therapeutic protein (e.g., at least one anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody, multiple different antibodies, an ACE2 protein, or human growth hormone) or a biologically active nucleic acid molecule.

  • Publication number: 20240033376
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions, systems, kits, and methods for expression of one or more biomolecules in a subject, human or non-human mammal, (e.g., at therapeutic levels for the extended periods of time required to produce therapeutic effects). In certain embodiments, compositions, systems, kits, and methods are provided that comprise a first composition comprising polycationic structures (e.g., empty cationic liposomes, cationic micelles, cationic emulsions, or cationic polymers) and a second composition comprising expression vectors (e.g., non-viral expression vectors not associated with liposomes or other carriers) encoding one or more biomolecules of interest.

  • Publication number: 20230212610
    Abstract: Provided herein are compositions, systems, kits, and methods for treating a subject, and/or a subject's pre-adipocytes and/or adipocytes, with a composition containing a nucleic acid sequence encoding a protein or other biologically active nucleic acid-encoded molecule (BANEM), or a vector containing the nucleic acid sequence, wherein the treating comprises: a) injecting the composition into one or more subcutaneous (SC) regions of the subject such that one or more protein, or other BANEM, is detectable in a blood, serum, or plasma sample from the subject; and/or b) injecting the composition into one or more SC regions of the subject such that in-vivo transfected pre-adipocytes and/or adipocytes (e.g., transfected cells of fat cell origin) are generated; and/or c) performing the following: i) contacting pre-adipocytes and/or adipocytes (e.g.

  • Patent number: 10905777
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions, systems, kits, and methods for generating expression of one or more proteins and/or biologically active nucleic acid molecules in a subject (e.g., at therapeutic levels for extended periods required to produce therapeutic effects). In certain embodiments, systems and kits are provided that comprise a first composition comprising a first amount of polycationic structures, and a second composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of expression vectors (e.g., non-viral expression vectors not associated with liposomes) that are CpG-free or CpG-reduced, where the expression vectors comprise a first nucleic acid sequence encoding: i) a first therapeutic protein or proteins, and/or ii) a first biologically active nucleic acid molecule or molecules.
