  • Publication number: 20260048130
    Abstract: The present invention provides double stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) agents for inhibiting expression of a target gene, comprising an antisense strand which is complementary to the target gene; a sense strand which is complementary to the antisense strand and forms a double stranded region with the antisense strand; and at least one alpha-v-beta-6 (?v?6) integrin targeting ligand that mediates delivery to an extrahepatic tissues, e.g., muscle tissue, e.g., skeletal muscle tissue and/or cardiac muscle tissue, or lung tissue conjugated to at least one strand, compositions comprising such dsRNA agents, and methods of use thereof for treating a subject having a disorder that would benefit from reduction in expression of the target gene.

    Inventors: Jayaprakash K. Nair, Joseph David Panarese, Bhaumik Pandya, Karyn Schmidt, Kevin Dooley, Bryan Ingoglia, Oliver Galloway, Masaaki Nakata, Justin Pierson, Yesseinia Anglero-Rodriguez, Scott Lentini, Vasant R. Jadhav
  • Publication number: 20240401056
    Abstract: The present invention relates to RNAi agents, e.g., double stranded RNA (dsRNA) agents, targeting the Factor XII (F12) gene. The invention also relates to methods of using such RNAi agents to inhibit expression of an F12 gene and to methods of preventing and treating an F12-associated disorder, e.g., heredity angioedema (HAE), prekallikrein deficiency, malignant essential hypertension, hypertension, end stage renal disease, Fletcher Factor Deficiency, thromboembolic disease, inflammatory disease, or Alzheimer's Disease.

  • Publication number: 20240360455
    Abstract: The present invention provides double stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) agents for inhibiting expression of a target gene, comprising an antisense strand which is complementary to the target gene; a sense strand which is complementary to the antisense strand and forms a double stranded region with the antisense strand; and one or more C22 hydrocarbon chains conjugated to one or more internal positions on at least one strand, compositions comprising such dsRNA agents, and methods of use thereof for treating a subject having a skeletal muscle disorder, a cardiac muscle disorder, or an adipose tissue disorder.
