  • Publication number: 20230355651
    Abstract: Described are compositions and methods for inhibition of Hepatitis B virus gene expression. RNA interference (RNAi) agents for inhibiting the expression of Hepatitis B virus gene are described. The HBV RNAi agents disclosed herein may be targeted to cells, such as hepatocytes, for example, by using conjugated targeting ligands. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more HBV RNAi agents optionally with one or more additional therapeutics are also described. Delivery of the described HBV RNAi agents to infected liver in vivo provides for inhibition of HBV gene expression and treatment of diseases and conditions associated with HBV infection.

  • Patent number: 11492624
    Abstract: Described herein are compositions and methods for inhibition of Asialoglycoprotein receptor 1 (ASGR1) gene expression. RNA interference (RNAi) agents, e.g., double stranded RNAi agents, and RNAi agent-targeting ligand conjugates for inhibiting the expression of an ASGR1 gene are described. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more ASGR1 RNAi agents, optionally with one or more additional therapeutics, are also described. The ASGR1 RNAi agents can be used in methods of treatment of various diseases and conditions, such as cardiometabolic diseases related to elevated non-HDL cholesterol (non-HDL-C) levels, elevated LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) levels, elevated total cholesterol levels, and/or elevated triglyceride (TG) levels.

  • Publication number: 20220152079
    Abstract: 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.
