  • Patent number: 10239957
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a peptide containing conjugate comprising (P)c-(L)d-(G)e, wherein P is a peptide and each occurance of P is independently selected from Table 2; L is an optional linker and each occurance of L, if present, is independently selected from Table 3; G is a targeting ligand and each occurance of G is independently selected from Table 4; d is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6; and each of c and e is independently 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. The conjugate can be administered to a subject either alone or in combination with a composition comprising R-(L)a-(G)b, wherein R is an oligonucleotide as defined herein, to inhibit expression of a gene of the subject.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20170189441
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for inhibiting expression of a gene of a subject comprising administering (1) a composition comprising R-(L)a-(G)b; wherein R is an oligonucleotide selected from the group consisting of DNA, RNA, siRNA, and microRNA; L is a linker and each occurrence of L is independently selected from Table 3; G is a targeting ligand and each occurrence of G is independently selected from Table 4; each of a and b is independently 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4; and (2) a composition comprising (P)c-(L)d-(G)e; wherein P is a peptide and each occurrence of P is independently selected from Table 2; L is a linker and each occurrence of L is independently selected from Table 3; G is a targeting ligand and each occurrence of G is independently selected from Table 4; d is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6; and each of c and e is independently 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. Compositions in (1) and (2) can be co-administered or sequentially administered.
