  • Publication number: 20220251556
    Abstract: Enhanced antisense oligonucleotides targeting Regulator of telomere elongation helicase 1 (RTEL1), leading to modulation of the expression of RTEL1 or modulation of RTEL1 activity are provided. This disclosure relates to the use of enhanced antisense oligonucleotides targeting RTEL1 for use in treating and/or preventing a hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, in particular a chronic HBV infection. This disclosure further relates to the use of the enhanced antisense oligonucleotides targeting RTEL1 for destabilizing cccDNA, such as HBV cccDNA. A pharmaceutical composition and its use in the treatment and/or prevention of a HBV infection is also described.
