WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 MULTIPLE TARGET HYBRIDIZING NUCLEIC ACIDS, THEIR PREPARATION, COMPOSITIONS, FORMULATION, KITS & APPLICATIONS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention 5 This invention relates to multiple target anti-sense oligonucleotides (MTA oligos) of low or no adenosine content. The present agents are effective in the prophylaxis and treatment of diseases and conditions associated with inflammation, impaired airways, including lung disease and diseases whose secondary effects afflict the lungs of a subject. The agents are targeted to specific genes, genomic flanking regions, initiation codon, intron-exon borders, and 10 the like, or the coding and non-coding regions of RNAs, including those encoding certain proteins, particularly those associated with diseases having multiple mediators, by affecting (either attenuating or enhancing) various contributing pathways. Examples are pulmonary diseases such as allergies, asthma, impeded respiration, pain, cystic fibrosis and cancers such as leukemias, e.g. colon cancer, and the like. The present agent may easily be administered 15 prophylactically and therapeutically in conjunction with other therapies, or may be utilized as a substitute for therapies that have significant, negative side effects. Description of the Background Respiratory ailments, associated with a variety of diseases and conditions, are extremely common in the general population, and more so in certain ethnic groups, such as African 20 Americans. In some cases they are accompanied by inflammation, which aggravates the condition of the lungs. Asthma, for example, is one of the most common diseases in industrialized countries. In the United States it accounts for about 1 % of all health care costs. An alarming increase in both the prevalence and mortality of asthma over the past decade has been reported, and asthma is predicted to be the preeminent occupational lung disease in the 25 next decade. While the increasing mortality of asthma in industrialized countries could be attributable to the increased reliance upon beta agonists in the treatment of this disease, the underlying causes of asthma remain poorly understood. Anti-sense oligonucleotides have received considerable theoretical consideration as potential useful pharmacological agents in human disease. Their practical application in actual 30 models of human disease, however, has been somewhat elusive. One important impediment to their effective application has been a difficulty in finding an appropriate route of administration to deliver them to their site of action. Many in vivo experiments were conducted by administering anti-sense oligonucleotides directly to specific regions of the brain. These applications, however, necessarily have limited clinical utility due to their invasive nature. 35 The systemic administration of anti-sense oligonucleotides also presents significant problems, not the least being an inherent difficulty in targeting disease-involved tissues. In WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 contrast, the lung is an excellent target for the direct administration of anti-sense oligonucleotides, and provides a non-invasive and a tissue-specific route. The delivery of anti sense agents to the lung has been relatively undeveloped. Adenosine may constitute an important mediator in the lung for various diseases, 5 including bronchial asthma. Its potential role was suggested by the finding that asthmatics respond favorably to aerosolized adenosine with marked bronchoconstriction whereas normal individuals do not. An asthmatic rabbit animal model, the dust mite allergic rabbit model for human asthma, responded in a similar fashion to aerosolized adenosine with marked bronchoconstriction whereas non-asthmatic rabbits showed no response. More recent work 10 with this animal model suggested that adenosine-induced bronchoconstriction and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthma may be mediated primarily through the stimulation of adenosine receptors. Adenosine has also been shown to cause adverse effects, including death, when administered therapeutically for other diseases and conditions in subjects with previously undiagnosed hyper reactive airways. 15 A handful of medicaments have been available for the treatment of respiratory diseases and conditions, although in general they all have limitations. Theophylline, an important drug in the treatment of asthma, is a known adenosine receptor antagonist which was reported to eliminate adenosine-mediated bronchoconstriction in asthmatic rabbits. A selective adenosine

A

1 receptor antagonist, 8-cyclopentyl-1, 3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX) was also reported to 20 inhibit adenosine-mediated bronchoconstriction and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in allergic rabbits. The therapeutic and preventative applications of currently available adenosine A, receptor-specific antagonists are, nevertheless, limited by their toxicity. Theophylline, for example, has been widely used in the treatment of asthma, but is associated with frequent, significant toxicity resulting from its narrow therapeutic dose range. DPCPX is far too toxic 25 to be useful clinically. The fact that, despite decades of extensive research, no specific adenosine receptor antagonist is available for clinical use attests to the general toxicity of these agents. Anti-sense oligonucleotides have received considerable theoretical consideration for their potential use as pharmacological agents in human disease. Finding practical and effective 30 applications of these agents in actual models of human disease, however, have been few and far between, particularly because they had to be administered in large doses. Another important consideration in the pharmacologic application of these molecules is their route of administration. Many in vivo applications have involved the direct administration of anti-sense oligonucleotides to limited regions of the brain. Such applications, however, have limited 35 clinical utility due to their invasive nature. The systemic administration of anti-sense oligonucleotides as pharmacological agents 2 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 has been found to have also significant problems, not the least of which being a difficulty in targeting disease-involved tissues. That is, the necessary dilution of the anti-sense oligonucleotide in the circulatory system makes extremely difficult to attain a therapeutic dose at the target tissue by intravenous or oral administration. The bioavailability of orally 5 administered anti-sense oligonucleotides is very low, of the order of less than about 5%. Anti-sense oligonucleotides have been used in therapy by many, including the present inventor, who in his previous work successfully treated various diseases and conditions by direct administration of these agents to the lung. In many instances, other workers have had to face the difficulties associated with the delivery of DNA molecules to a desired target. Thus, 10 the route of administration may be of extreme importance for treating generalized diseases and conditions as well as those which are localized. Accordingly, there is a need for effective ways to implement anti-sense therapy, particularly those which are highly effective for the treatment or diseases and conditions which are of a complex nature. Examples of the latter are those diseases and conditions which are 15 associated with complex pathways and multiple endogenous agents which either alone, or in combination with one another, result in pathological conditions to the subject. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to an agent, comprising an anti-sense oligonucleotide hybridizing 20 to two or more mRNAs, or multiple target anti-sense oligos (MTA oligos), such as those that correspond to target genes, genomic flanking regions, the initiation codon, intron-exon borders, and the like, and the entire sequence of RNAs, including the coding region of mRNA and non-coding RNA segments such as the 5' cap or end and the 3' end, e.g. poly-A segment, and RNAs encoding proteins known to be associated with one or more diseases or conditions 25 and mixtures thereof. The mRNAs, for example, may encode polypeptide(s) such as transcription factors, stimulating and activating factors, interleukins, interleukin receptors, chemokines, chemokine receptors, endogenously produced specific and non-specific enzymes, immunoglobulins, antibody receptors, central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous and non-nervous system receptors, CNS and peripheral nervous and non-nervous system 30 peptide transmitters, adhesion molecules, defensines, growth factors, vasoactive peptides and receptors, and binding proteins; or those mRNA which correspond to an oncogene. The present agent contains less than or about 15% adenosine (A), and in many cases is completely devoid of adenosine, and is also presented as a composition, which may be in the form of a capsule or cartridge, various formulations, and a kit provided with a delivery device and 35 instructions for its use. The anti-sense-oligos of the invention may have their adenosine content reduced by substitution with an adenosine-like binding substitute such as universal base. 3 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 The kit may also have other therapeutic agents, and ingredients for the composition. The agent also may be provided operatively linked to a vector and/or in a transfected host cell. The agent, composition and formulation of the invention may be applied to the treatment of a disease or condition associated with the presence of an mRNA corresponding 5 to at least one target gene, genomic flanking regions or proteins, by administration to a subject afflicted with the disease or condition of an amount of the MTA oligo of this invention effective to reduce the production or availability, or to increase the degradation, by the subject of at least one of the target mRNA. In a preferred embodiment, the agent may be administered in an amount effective to reduce the production or availability, or to increase the degradation 10 of at least two of the target mRNAs. Typical diseases and conditions of this invention are those associated with impaired respiration and inflammation, including lung diseases, ailments and conditions that have a negative effect on the lungs of a subject. Examples of diseases and conditions, which may be treated preventively, prophylactically and therapeutically with the agent of this invention, are pulmonary vasoconstriction, inflammation, allergic rhinitis, acute 15 asthma, allergies, asthma, impeded respiration, respiratory distress syndrome, pain, cystic fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary vasoconstriction, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and cancers such as leukemias, lymphomas, carcinomas, and the like, e.g. colon cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, kidney cancer, melanoma, hepatic metastases, etc., as well as all 20 types of cancers which may metastasize or have metastasized to the lung(s), including breast and prostate cancer. The present agent(s) is (are) also suitable for administration before, during and after other treatments, including radiation, chemotherapy, antibody therapy, phototherapy and cancer, and other types of surgery. Alternatively, the present agent may be effectively administered preventively, prophylactically or therapeutically, and in conjunction with other 25 therapies, or by itself for conditions without known therapies or as a substitute for therapies that have significant negative side effects. The composition of this invention may be administered by transdermal or systemic routes, including by, but not exclusively, oral, intracavitary, intranasal, intraanal, intravaginal, transdermal, intradermal, intrabuccal, intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intratumor, 30 intraglandular, by inhalation, intraarterial, intravascular in general, into the ear, intracranial, intrathecal, intraorgan including via a shunt to, for example, the liver or other organs, by implantation and intraocular administration to a human or any other animal, including vertebrates, such as mammals. The treatment of this invention may be prophylactic or therapeutic. In a preferred embodiment, the present agents are administered directly into the 35 respiratory system of a subject, so that the agent has direct access to the lungs, in an amount effective to reduce or inhibit the effect in the lung of the targeted diseases or conditions. 4 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 The agent of this invention may be produced by selecting two or more targets such as genes, genomic flanking regions, intron-exon borders, and the like, or the entire sequence of RNAs, including non-coding RNAs, and RNAs encoding proteins known to be associated with at least one disease or condition; obtaining RNAs selected from the group consisting of RNAs 5 corresponding to the genes and genomic flanking regions, and RNAs encoding the target proteins; selecting a segment of a first RNA which is at least about 60%, preferably about 80%, and still more preferably about 90% and even about 100% homologous to a segment of at least a segment of a second RNA; and synthesizing one or more anti-sense oligonucleotide(s) to the one or more RNA segments. The target RNA includes every segment of precursor and 10 spliced mRNAs and other RNA molecules, including the 5'- and 3'-ends, and the coding portions as well as overlapping segments juxtaposed over the coding and non-coding sequences. In a preferred form of the invention, the two or more targets may be located in the same molecule. For instance, in the case of a mRNA encoding a protein with multiple subunits, MTA oligos may be found in segments of the RNA which encode different protein subunits. 15 Also provided are MTA oligos which are produced by the method of the invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS This invention arose from a desire by the inventor to improve on his own prior discovery, and those of others, that anti-sense oligonucleotides may be utilized therapeutically in the treatment of diseases or conditions which have multiple contributing pathways. The 20 inventor reasoned that he could improve on his prior success in attenuating or enhancing the effects of one specific pathway by designing anti-sense oligonucleotides directed to a specific target associated with a disease or condition. He, thus, set out to attempt a novel and unobvious strategy directed to multiple targets. In so doing, he overcame numerous obstacles, particularly the extensive searching and selection necessary to obtain targets as well as their locating the 25 desired sequences, be it genomic DNA, RNAs or proteins involved in specific diseases. Thereafter, he exemplified the invention by application to some specific diseases or conditions, and provided various preferred embodiments and specifically designed multiple targeted anti sense oligonucleotide (MTA oligo) sequences. The multi-targeted anti-sense (MTA) oligonucleotides of this invention have the 30 capacity to attenuate the expression of more than one target mRNA, or to enhance or attenuate the activity of one or more pathways. By means of example, the present method may be practiced by first identifying all possible desadenosine (desA) anti-sense sequences of about 7, about 10, about 12, about 15, about 18, about 21 to about 28, about 30, about 35, about 40, about 45, about 50, about 60 or more mononucleotides in a target mRNA. This may be 35 attained by searching for segments that are 7 or more nucleotides long within a target sequence 5 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 which are low in, or lack, thymidine (T), a nucleotide which is complementary to adenosine (A). This search typically results in about 10 to 30 such desT segments, i. e. naturally lacking thymidine, or segments with low T content, e. g. up to and including about 15 %T, from which anti-sense oligonucleotides of varying lengths may be designed for a typical target mRNA of 5 average length, i. e. about 1800 nucleotides long. Thereafter, the sense sequence for each strictly complementary desA anti-sense sequence obtained for a specific target may be then deduced. The thus deduced sense sequence may be then used to search for sequences of preferred secondary targets. Alternatively, one or more sequence data bases, e. g., GENBANK, and the like, may be searched for alternative secondary sequences.Thus, the 10 targeting may be undertaken in several manners, one being the selection of specific targets associated with one or more related diseases. Alternatively, a primary target may be selected first, and an anti-sense oligonucleotide found, preferably a desA oligonucleotide and, then, secondary, tertiary or more targets searched for. In a typical search, either the list of preferred secondary targets or of a data base, multiple instances of homologous secondary targets of 15 interest are identified. That is, the present technology is directed to finding the instances where there are natural homologies between primary, secondary, and greater sequences, and utilizing the finding for the therapeutic treatment of specific diseases or conditions associated with the target macromolecules from which the MTAs are obtained. The present technology relies on the design of anti-sense oligos targeted to mRNAs 20 associated with ailments involving lung airway pathology(ies), and on their modification to reduce the occurrence of undesirable side effects caused by their release of adenosine upon breakdown, while preserving their activity and efficacy for their intended purpose. In this manner, the inventor targets a specific gene to design one or more anti-sense oligonucleotide(s) (oligos) that selectively bind(s) to the corresponding mRNA, and then reduces, if necessary, 25 their content of adenosine via substitution with universal base or an adenosine analog incapable of activating adenosine A, A 2 b or A 3 receptors. Based on his prior experience in the field, the inventor reasoned that in addition to "downregulating" specific genes, he could increase the effect of the agent(s) administered by either selecting segments of RNA that are devoid, or have a low content, of thymidine (T) or, alternatively, substitute one or more adenosine(s) 30 present in the designed oligonucleotide(s) with other nucleotide bases, so called universal bases, which bind to thymidine but lack the ability to activate adenosine receptors and otherwise exercise the constricting effect of adenosine in the lungs, etc. Given that adenosine (A) is a nucleotide base complementary to thymidine (T), when a T appears in the RNA, the anti-sense oligo will have an A at the same position. For consistency's sake, all RNAs and 35 oligonucleotides are represented in this patent by a single strand in the 5' to 3' direction, when read from left to right, although their complementary sequence(s) is (are) also encompassed 6 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 within the four corners of the invention. In addition, all nucleotide bases and amino acids are represented utilizing the recommendations of the IUPAC-IUB Biochemical Nomenclature Commission, or by the known 3-letter code (for amino acids). The method of the present invention may be used to treat ailments associated with 5 reduced airway function in a subject, whatever its cause. The adenosine content of the anti sense agent(s) of the invention have a reduced A content to prevent its liberation upon in vivo degradation of the agent(s). Examples of airway diseases that may be treated by the method of the present invention include cystic fibrosis, asthma, pulmonary hypertension and vasoconstriction, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic bronchitis, 10 respiratory distress syndrome, lung cancer and lung metastatic cancers and other airway diseases, including those with inflammatory response. Anti-sense oligos to the adenosine A 1 , A 2 a, A 2 ., and A 3 receptors, CCR3 (chemokine receptors), bradykinin 2B, CAM (vascular cell adhesion molecule), and eosinophil receptors, among others, have been shown to be effective in down-regulating the expression of their 15 genes. Some of these act to alleviate the symptoms or reduce respiratory ailments and/or inflammation, for example, by "down regulation" of the adenosine A,, A 2 a, A 2 b, and/or A 3 receptors and CCR3, bradykinin 2B, VCAM (vascular cell adhesion molecule) and eosinophil receptors. These agents are preferably administered directly into the respiratory system, e.g., by inhalation or other means, so that they may reach the lungs without widespread systemic 20 dissemination. This permits the use of substantially lower doses of the agent of the invention as compared with those administered by the prior art, systemically or by other generalized routes and, consequently, reduce undesirable side effects resulting from the agent's widespread distribution in the body. The agent(s) of this invention has (have) been shown to reduce the amount of receptor protein expressed by the tissue. These agents, thus, rather than merely 25 interacting with their targets, e.g. a receptor, lower the number of target proteins that other drugs may interact with. In this manner, the present agent(s) afford(s) extremely high efficacy with low toxicity. The adenosine receptors discussed above are mere examples of the high power of the inventor's technology. In fact, a large number of genes may be targeted in a similar manner 30 by the present agent(s), to reduce or down-regulate protein expression. By means of example, if the target disease or condition is one associated with impeded or reduced breathing, bronchoconstriction, chronic bronchitis, pulmonary bronchoconstriction and/or hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), allergy, asthma, cystic fibrosis, respiratory distress syndrome, cancers, which either directly or by metastasis afflict the lung, the present 35 method may be applied to a list of potential target mRNAs, which includes the targets listed in Table 1 below, among others. 7 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Table 1: Pulmonary Disease or Condition (Asthma/Inflammation) Targets NfxcB Transcription Factor Interleukin-8 Receptor (IL-8 R) Interleukin-5 Receptor (IL-5R) Interleukin-4 Receptor (IL-4R) 5 Interleukin-3 Receptor (IL-3R) Interleukin-1 (IL-ip) Interleukin-13 Receptor (IL- PR) Eotaxin Tryptase Major Basic Protein P2-adrenergic Receptor Kinase Endothelin Receptor A Endothelin Receptor B Preproendothelin 10 Bradykinin B2 Receptor (B2BR) IgE (High Affinity Receptor) Interleukin-1 (IL-1) Interleukin 1 Receptor (IL-i R) Interleukin-9 (IL-9) Interleukin-9 Receptor (IL-9 R) Interleukin-11 (IL-11) Interleukin- 1 Receptor (IL-il R) Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Cyclooxygenase (COX) 15 Intracellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM-i) Vascular Cellular Adhesion Molecule (VCAM) Rantes Endothelial Leukocyte Adhesion Molecule (ELAM-1) Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) GM-CSF, Endothelin-1 Monocyte Activating Factor Neutrophil Chemotactic Factor Neutrophil Elastase Defensin 1,2,3 20 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors Platelet Activating Factor Tumor Necrosis Factor a 5-lipoxygenase Phosphodiesterase IV Substance P Substance P Receptor Histamine Receptor Chymase CCR-i CC Chemokine Receptor 25 Interleukin-2 (IL-2) Interleukin-4 (IL-4) Interleukin-12 (IL-12) Interleukin-5 (IL-5) Interleukin-6 (IL-6) Interleukin-7 (IL-7) Interleukin-8 (IL-8) Interleukin-12 Receptor (IL-12R) Interleukin-7 Receptor (IL-7R) Interleukin-I (IL-i) 30 Interleukin-14 Receptor (IL-14R) Interleukin-14 CCR-2 CC Chemokine Receptor CCR-3 CC Chemokine Receptor CCR-4 CC Chemokine Receptor CCR-5 CC Chemokine Receptor Prostanoid Receptors GATA-3 Transcription Factor Neutrophil Adherence Receptor MAP Kinase 35 Interleukin-15 (IL-15) Interleukin-15 Receptor (IL-15R) Interleukin-1 1 (IL-il) Interleukin-8 1 Receptor (IL- 1R) NFAT Transcription Factors STAT 4 8 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Table 1: Pulmonary Disease or Condition (Asthma/Inflammation) Targets (Cont'ed) MIP-la MCP-2 MCP-3 MCP-4 5 Cyclophillin (A, B, etc.) Phospholipase A2 Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor Metalloproteinase CSBP/p38 MAP Kinase Tryptase Receptor PDG2 Interleukin-3 (IL-3) Interleukin-10 (IL-10) Cyclosporin A - Binding Protein 10 FK506-Binding Protein a4pl Selectin Fibronectin a4P7 Selectin cMad CAM-1 LFA-1 (CDlla/CD18) PECAM-1 LFA-1 Selectin C3bi PSGL-I 15 E-Selectin P-Selectin CD-34 L-Selectin p150,95 Mac-i (CD1lb/CD18) Fucosyl transferase VLA-4 CD-18/CD11a CD11b/CD18 20 ICAM2 and ICAM3 C5a CCR3 (Eotaxin Receptor) CCR1, CCR2, CCR4, CCR5 LTB-4 AP-1 Transcription Factor Protein kinase C Cysteinyl Leukotriene Receptor Tachykinnen Receptors (tach R) 1KB Kinase 1 & 2 25 Interleukin-2 Receptor (IL-2R) (e.g., Substance P, NK-1 & NK-3 Receptors) STAT 6 c-mas NF-Interleukin-6 (NF-IL-6) Interleukin-10 Receptor (IL-1lR) Interleukin-3 (IL-3) Interleukin-2 Receptor (IL-2R) Interleukin-13 (IL-13) Interleukin-12 Receptor (IL-12R) 30 Interleukin-14 (IL-14) Interleukin-6 Receptor (IL-6R) Interleukin-16 (IL-16) Interleukin-13 Receptor (IL-13R) Medullasin Interleukin-16 Receptor (IL-16R) Adenosine A, Receptor (A, R) Tryptase-I Adenosine A 2 , Receptor (A 2 , R) Adenosine A 3 Receptor (A 3 R) 35 P Tryptase Adenosine A 2 a Receptor (A 2 , R) IgE Receptor P Subunit (IgE R P) Fc-epsilon receptor CD23 antigen IgE Receptor a Subunit (IgE R a) IgE Receptor Fc Epsilon Receptor (IgERFc R) Substance P Receptor Histidine decarboxylase Tryptase- 1 40 Prostaglandin D Synthase Eosinophil Cationic Protein Eosinophil Derived Neurotoxin Eosinophil Peroxidase Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase Endothelial Monocyte Activating Factor Neutrophil Oxidase Factor Cathepsin G Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-i- Interleukin-8 Receptor a Subunit (IL-8 R a) 45 Alpha/Rantes Receptor Substance P Endothelin Receptor ET-B Endothelin ETA Receptor The oligos of this invention may be obtained by first selecting fragments of a target nucleic acid having at least 4 contiguous nucleic acids selected from the group consisting of 50 G and C, and then obtaining a first oligonucleotide 4 to 60 nucleotides long which comprises the selected fragment and has a C and G nucleic acid content of up to and including about 15 %. The latter step may be conducted by obtaining a second oligonucleotide 4 to 60 nucleotides long comprising a sequence which is anti-sense to the selected fragment, the second oligonucleotide having an adenosine base content of up to and including about 15 %. This 55 method may also comprise, when the selected fragment comprises at least one thymidine base, 9 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 substituting an adenosine base in the corresponding nucleotide of the anti-sense fragment with a universal base selected from the group consisting of heteroaromatic bases which bind to a thymidine base but have antagonist activity and less than about 0.3 of the adenosine base agonist activity at the adenosine A,, A 2 b and A 3 receptors, and heteroaromatic bases which 5 have no activity or have an agonist activity at the adenosine A2a receptor. The analogue heteroaromatic bases may be selected from all pyrimidines and purines, which may be substituted by 0, halo, NH 2 , SH, SO, SO 2 , SO 3 , COOH and branched and fused primary and secondary amino, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, alkoxy, alkenoxy, acyl, cycloacyl, arylacyl, alkynoxy, cycloalkoxy, aroyl, arylthio, 10 arylsulfoxyl, halocycloalkyl, alkylcycloalkyl, alkenylcycloalkyl, alkynylcycloalkyl, haloaryl, alkylaryl, alkenylaryl, alkynylaryl, arylalkyl, arylalkenyl, arylalkynyl, arylcycloalkyl, which may be further substituted by 0, halo, NH 2 , primary, secondary and tertiary amine, SH, SO,

2 , SO 3 , cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl and heteroaryl. The pyrimidines and purines may be substituted at all positions as is known in the art, but preferred are those which are substituted 15 at positions 1, 2, 3, 4, 7 and/or 8. More preferred are pyrimidines and purines such as theophylline, caffeine, dyphylline, etophylline, acephylline piperazine, bamifylline, enprofylline and xantine having the chemical formula 0 M I I I C N I S wherein R1 and R2 are independently H, alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl and 16 is H, aryl, dicycloalkyl, dicycloalkenyl, dicycloalkynyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, cycloalkynyl, 0 20 cycloalkyl, 0-cycloalkenyl, 0-cycloalkynyl, NH 2 -alkylamino-ketoxyalkyloxy-aryl, mono and dialkylaminoalkyl-N-alkylamino-S0 2 aryl, among others. When no segments having the desired T content were found or where desirable segments contained T, the inventor proposed to reduce the adenosine content of the anti-sense oligos corresponding to the thymidines (T) present in the target RNA to less than about 15%, 25 or fully eliminated A from the oligonucleotide sequence as a means for preventing their breakdown products from freeing adenosine into the lung tissue environment and, thereby, aggravating the subject's ailment and/or countering the beneficial effect of the administered agent. By means of example, the NfrB transcription factor may be selected as a primary target 30 and searched for desthymidine (desT) segments. When a number of desT segments are found, 10 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 the anti-sense segments may be deduced, and perhaps about 20 or even more desA anti-sense sequences obtained. These anti-sense sequences represent, when possible, all desA anti-sense sequences found within the mRNA of this primary target, and may be utilized to start the search for homologous sequences within a preferred list of secondary targets such as the one 5 shown in Table 1 above or Table 2 below, or within a sequence data base, such as GENBANK. For each of the about 20 original desA anti-sense sequences found for NFK transcription factor, typically about 10 to 30 homologous sequences may be found among the other members of the group shown in Table 1 above (secondary, tertiary, and the like targets). In some instances, the search produces a homology for the primary target with, not only secondary targets 10 (homology between primary target and sequence from one other target mRNA), but with tertiary targets (homology between primary target and sequences from, e. g. three other target mRNA), as well. The latter case, however, is more rare. When this occurs, the anti-sense oligos found are said to be 100% homologous. More typically, however, the sequences found contain some non-fully homologous nucleotides within the secondary or tertiary or quaternary 15 sequences. In many cases, this mismatch would suffice to render the anti-sense oligonucleotide less active or even inactive against the target(s). In some instances, the presence of even one non-homologous nucleotide may be sufficient to reduce the activity of an anti-sense oligonucleotide. When the so called "homologous" sequences obtained have mismatches, acceptable are up to about 40%, preferably no more than about 30%, more preferable no more 20 than 20%, still more preferable no more than 10% mismatched nucleotides. In some instances the higher % mismatches are acceptable, and the oligos still are active since the non homologous nucleotide may be "fixed" or replaced with a "Universal" base that may base-pair with similar or equal affinity with two or more of the four nucleotide present in natural DNA: A, G, C, and T. This "fixing" step generates a further novel sequence, different from the one 25 found in nature, that permits the anti-sense oligonucleotide to bind, preferably equally well, with the primary target, the secondary target, the tertiary target, etc. As the NfxB transcription factor is selected as a target, its mRNA or DNA are searched for low thymidine (T) or desthymidine (desT) fragments. Only desT segments of the mRNA or DNA are selected which, in turn, will produce desA anti-sense as their complementary 30 strand. When a number of RNA desT segments are found, the sequence of the anti-sense segments may be deduced. Typically, about 10 to 30 and even larger numbers of desA anti sense sequences may be obtained. These anti-sense sequences may include some or all desA anti-sense oligonucleotide sequences corresponding to desT segments of the mRNA of the target, such as anyone of those shown in Table 1 above or Table 2 below. When this occurs, 35 the anti-sense oligonucleotides found are said to be 100% A-free. For each of the original desA anti-sense oligonucleotide sequences corresponding to the target gene, e.g. the NFKB 11 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 transcription factor, typically about 10 to 30 sequences may be found within the target gene or RNA which have a low content of thymidine (RNA). In accordance with this invention, the selected fragment sequences may also contain a small number of thymidine (RNA) nucleotides within the secondary or tertiary or quaternary sequences. In some cases, a large adenosine 5 content may suffice to render the anti-sense oligonucleotide less active or even inactive against the target. In accordance with this invention, these so called "non-fully desA" sequences may preferably have a content of adenosine of less than about 15%, more preferably less than about 10%, and still more preferably less than 5%, and some even less than 2% adenosine. In some instances a higher content of adenosine is acceptable and the oligonucleotides are still active, 10 particularly where the adenosine nucleotide may be "fixed" or replaced with a "Universal" base that may base-pair with similar or equal affinity to two or more of the four nucleotide present in natural DNA: A, G, C, and T. A universal base is defined in this patent as any compound, more commonly an adenosine analogue, having the capacity to hybridize to thymidine, preferably having substantially reduced, or substantially lacking, ability to bind 15 adenosine receptors. Alternatively, adenosine analogs which do not activate adenosine receptors, such as the adenosine A, A2b and/or A3 receptors, most preferably A, receptors, may be used. One example of a universal base is a-deoxyribofuranosol-(5-nitroindole), and an artisan will know how to select others. This "fixing" step generates a further novel sequence, different from the one found in nature, that permits the anti-sense oligonucleotide to bind, 20 preferably equally well, with the target RNA. An example of a universal base is 2 deoxyribosyl-(5-nitroindole). Other examples of universal bases are 3-nitropyrrole-2' deoxynucleoside, 5-nitro-indole, 2-deoxyribosyl-(5-nitroindole), 2-deoxyribofuranosyl-(5 nitroindole), 2'-deoxyinosine, 2'-deoxynebularine, 611, 8H-3,4-dihydropyrimido [4,5-c] oxazine-7-one and 2-amino-6-methoxyaminopurine. In addition to the above, Universal bases 25 which may be substituted for any other base although with somewhat reduced hybridization potential, include 3-nitropyrrole 2'-deoxynucleoside 2-deoxyribofuranosyl-(5-nitroindole), 2'-deoxyinosine and 2'-deoxynebularine (Glen Research, Sterling, VA). More specific mismatch repairs may be made using "P" nucleotide, 611, 8H-3, 4-dihydropyrimido[4,5-c] [1,2] oxazin-7-one, which base pairs with either guanine (G) or adenine (A) and "K" 30 nucleotide, 2-amino-6-methoxyaminopurine, which base pairs with either cytidine (C) or thymidine (T), among others. Others which are known in the art are also suitable. See, for example, Loakes, D. and Brown, D. M., Nucl .Acids Res. 22:4039-4043 (1994); Ohtsuka, E. et al., J. Biol.

When non-fully desT sequences are found in the naturally occurring target, they typically are selected so that about 1 to 3 universal base substitutions will suffice to obtain a 5 100% "desA" anti-sense oligonucleotide. Thus, the present method provides either anti-sense oligonucleotides to different targets which are low in, or devoid of, A content, as well as anti sense oligonucleotides where one or more adenosine nucleotides, e. g. about 1 to 3, or more, may be "fixed" by replacement with a "Universal" base. Universal bases are known in the art and need not be listed herein. An artisan will know which bases may act as universal bases, 10 and replace them for A. The present approach to the design of anti-sense oligonucleotide approach is also applicable to a variety of other diseases or conditions, including other inflammatory diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic bronchitis, pulmonary hypertension, cancers, including those which metastasize to the lung, such as breast cancer, 15 colon cancer, respiratory distress syndrome, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, kidney cancer, lymphomas, melanomas, hepatocellular carcinomas, etc. As used herein, the term "treat" or "treating" asthma or other respiratory and inflammatory conditions or diseases refers to a treatment which decreases the likelihood that the subject administered such treatment will manifest symptoms of a respiratory or 20 inflammatory lung disease or other lung conditions. The term "down-regulate" refers to inducing a decrease in production, secretion or availability (and thus a decrease in concentration) of the targeted intracellular protein. The present invention is concerned primarily with the treatment of vertebrates, and within this group, of mammals, including human and non-human simians, wild and 25 domesticated animals, marine and land animals, household pets, and zoo animals, for example, felines, canines, equines, pachiderms, cetaceans, and still more preferably to human subjects. One particularly suitable application of this technology is for veterinary purposes, and includes all types of small and large animals in the care of a veterinarian, including wild animals, marine animals, household animals, zoo animals, and the like. Targeted genes and proteins are 30 preferably mammalian, and the sequences targeted are preferably of the same species as the subject being treated. Although in many instances, targets of a different species are also suitable, particularly those segments of the target RNA or gene that display greater than about 45 % homology, preferably greater than about 85 % homology, still more preferably greater than about 95% homology, with the recipient's sequence. A preferable group of agents is 35 composed of des-A anti-sense oligos. Another preferred group is composed of non-fully desA oligonucleotides, where one or more adenosine bases are replaced with universal bases. 13 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 The terms "anti-sense" oligonucleotides generally refers to small, synthetic oligonucleotides, resembling single-stranded DNA, which in this patent are applied to the inhibition of gene expression by inhibition of a target messenger RNA (mRNA). See, Milligan, J. F. et al., J. Med. Chem. 36(14), 1923-1937 (1993), the relevant portion of which 5 is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference. The present agents inhibit gene expression of target genes, such as those of the adenosine Al A 2 a, A 2 b, or A 3 receptors, CCR3 (chemical receptor 320, also known as the eotaxin receptor), VCAM (vascular cell adhesion molecule), eonophil receptor, bradykinin 2B receptor, and many others listed in Table 1 above. This is generally attained by hybridization of the anti-sense oligonucleotides to coding (sense) 10 sequences of a targeted messenger RNA (mRNA), as is known in the art. The exogenously administered agents of the invention decrease the levels of mRNA and protein encoded by the target gene and/or cause changes in the growth characteristics or shapes of the thus treated cells. See, Milligan et al. (1993); Helene, C. and Toulme, J. Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1049, 99-125 (1990); Cohen, J. S. D., Ed., Oligodeoxynucleotides as Anti-sense Inhibitors of Gene 15 Expression; CRC Press: Boca Raton, FL (1987), the relevant portion of which is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference. As used herein, "anti-sense oligonucleotide" is generally a short sequence of synthetic nucleotide that (1) hybridizes to any segment of a mRNA encoding a targeted protein under appropriate hybridization conditions, and which (2) upon hybridization causes a decrease in gene expression of the targeted protein. 20 The terms "des-adenosine" (desA) and "des-thymidine" (desT) refer to oligonucleotides substantially lacking either adenosine (desA) or thymidine (desT). In some instances, the des T sequences are naturally occurring, and in others they may result from substitution of an undesirable nucleotide (A) by another one lacking its undesirable activity. In the present context, the substitution is generally accomplished by substitution of A with a "universal 25 base", as is known in the art. The mRNA sequence of the targeted protein may be derived from the nucleotide sequence of the gene expressing the protein. For example, the sequence of the genomic human adenosine A 1 receptor and that of the rat and human adenosine A 3 receptors are known. See, US Pat. No. 5,320,962; Zhou, F., et al., Proc. Nat'l Acad. Sci. (USA) 89 :7432 (1992); 30 Jacobson, M.A., et al., U.K. Pat. Appl. No. 9304582.1. The sequence of the adenosine A 2 b receptor gene is also known. See, Salvatore, C. A., Luneau, C. J., Johnson, R. G. and Jacobson, M., Genomics (1995), the relevant portion of which is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference. The sequences of many of the exemplary target genes are also known. See, GenBank, NIH. The sequences of those genes whose sequences are not yet available may 35 be obtained by isolating the target segments applying technology known in the art. Once the sequence of the gene, its RNA and/or the protein are known, an anti-sense oligonucleotides 14 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 may be produced according to this invention as described above to reduce the production of the targeted protein in accordance with standard techniques. In one aspect of this invention, the anti-sense oligonucleotide has a sequence which specifically binds to a portion or segment of an mRNA molecule which encodes a protein 5 associated with a disease or condition associated with impeded breathing, lung inflammation, airway obstruction, bronchitis, and the like. One effect of this binding is to reduce or even prevent the translation of the corresponding mRNA and, thereby, reduce the available amount of target protein in the subject's lung. In one preferred embodiment of this invention, the phosphodiester residues of the anti 10 sense oligonucleotide are modified or substituted. Chemical analogs of oligonucleotides with modified or substituted phosphodiester residues, e.g., to the methylphosphonate, the phosphotriester, the phosphorothioate, the phosphorodithioate, or the phosphoramidate, which increase the in vivo stability of the oligonucleotide are particularly preferred. The naturally occurring phosphodiester linkages of oligonucleotides are susceptible to some degree of 15 degradation by cellular nucleases. Many of the residues proposed herein, on the contrary, are highly resistant to nuclease degradation. See Milligan et al., and Cohen, J. S. D., supra. In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the oligonucleotides may be protected from degradation by adding a " 3-end cap" by which nuclease-resistant linkages are substituted for phosphodiester linkages at the 3' end of the oligonucleotide. See, Tidd, D. M. and Warenius, 20 H.M., Be. J. Cancer 60: 343-350 (1989); Shaw, J.P. et al., Nucleic Acids Res. 19: 747-750 (1991), the relevant section of which are incorporated in their entireties herein by reference. Phosphoramidates, phosphorothioates, and methylphosphonate linkages all function adequately in this manner for the purposes of this invention. The more extensive the modification of the phosphodiester backbone the more stable the resulting agent, and in many instances the higher 25 their RNA affinity and cellular permeation. See Milligan, et al., supra. Thus, the number of residues which may be modified or substituted will vary depending on the need, target, and route of administration, and may be from 1 to all the residues, to any number in between. Many different methods for replacing the entire phosphodiester backbone with novel linkages are known. See, Millikan et al, supra. Preferred backbone analogue residues include 30 phosphorothioate, methylphosphonate, phosphotriester, thioformacetal, phosphorodithioate, phosphoramidate, formacetal boranophosphate, 3'-thioformacetal, 5'-thioether, carbonate, 5' N-carbamate, sulfate, sulfonate, sulfamate, sulfonamide, sulfone, sulfite., 2'-O methyl, sulfoxide, sulfide, hydroxylamine, methylene(methylimino) (MMI), and methyleneoxy(methylimino) (MOMI) residues. Phosphorothioate and methylphosphonate 35 modified oligonucleotides are particularly preferred due to their availability through automated oligonucleotide synthesis. See, Millikan et al, supra. Where appropriate, the agent of this 15 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 invention may be administered in the form of their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, or as a mixture of the anti-sense oligonucleotide and its salt. In another embodiment of this invention, a mixture of different anti-sense oligonucleotides or their pharmaceutically acceptable slats is administered. 5 The agents of this invention have the capacity to attenuate the expression of one target mRNA and/or to enhance or attenuate the activity of one pathway. By means of example, the present method may be practiced by identifying all possible deoxyribonucleotide segments which are low in thymidine (T) or deoxynucleotide segments low in adenosine (A) of about 7 or more mononucleotides, preferably up to about 60 mononucleotides, more preferably about 10 10 to about 36 mononucleotides, and still more preferably about 12 to about 21 mononucleotides, in a target mRNA or a gene, respectively. This may be attained by searching for mononucleotide segments within a target sequence which are low in, or lack thymidine (RNA), a nucleotide which is complementary to adenosine, or that are low in adenosine (gene), that are 7 or more nucleotides long. In most cases, this search typically results in about 10 to 15 30 such sequences, I. e. naturally lacking or having less than about 40% adenosine, anti-sense oligonucleotides of varying lengths for a typical target mRNA of average length, i. e., about 1800 nucleotides long. Those with high content of T or A, respectively, may be fixed by substitution of a universal base for one or more As. The agent(s) of this invention may be of any suitable length, including but not limited 20 to, about 7 to about 60 nucleotides long, preferably about 12 to about 45, more preferably up to about 30 nucleotides long, and still more preferably up to about 21, although they may be of other lengths as well, depending on the particular target and the mode of delivery. The agent(s) of the invention may be directed to any and all segments of a target RNA. One preferred group of agent(s) includes those directed to an mRNA region containing a junction 25 between an intron and an exon. Where the agent is directed to an intron/exon junction, it may either entirely overlie the junction or it may be sufficiently close to the junction to inhibit the splicing-out of the intervening exon during processing of precursor mRNA to mature mRNA, e.g. with the 3' or 5' terminus of the anti-sense oligonucleotide being positioned within about, for example, within about 2 to 10, preferably about 3 to 5, nucleotide of the intron/exon 30 junction. Also preferred are anti-sense oligonucleotides which overlap the initiation codon, and those near the 5' and 3' termini of the coding region. This multi-targeted anti-sense (MTA) oligonucleotide approach is, thus, applicable to a variety of other diseases or conditions, including other inflammatory diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic bronchitis, etc.. Other specific 35 diseases or conditions to which this technology is effectively applied are pulmonary hypertension, and cancers. 16 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 Table 2 below provides a number of targets to which multi-targeted anti-sense (MTA) oligonucleotides are effectively applied. Others may also be targeted. Table 2: Cancer Targets 5 Transforming Therapy Oncogenes Targets ras thymidylate synthetase src thymidylate synthetase 10 myc dihydrofolate reductase bcl-2 thymidine kinase deoxycytidine kinase ribonucleotide reductase 15 A group of preferred targets for the treatment of cancers are genes associated with different types of cancers, or those generally known to be associated with malignancies, whether they are regulatory or involved in the production of RNA and/or proteins. Examples are transforming oncogenes, including, but not limited to, ras, src, myc, and bcl-2, among others. Other targets are those to which present cancer chemotherapeutic agents are directed 20 to, such as various enzymes, primarily, although not exclusively, thymidylate synthetase, dihydrofolate reductase, thymidine kinase, deoxycytidine kinase, ribonucleotide reductase, and the like. The present technology is extremely important for the treatment of diseases or conditions such as cancer given that traditional cancer therapies are fraught with the unresolved 25 problem of selectively killing cancer cells while preserving normal living cells from the devastating effects of treatments such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and the like. The present technology provides the ability of simultaneously attenuating or enhancing multiple pathways. This approach provides a significant advantage for the treatment of cancer because it permits the selection of a combination of multiple pathways, including primary, secondary and possibly 30 tertiary targets, which are not generally expressed simultaneously in normal cells. Thus, the present agent may be administered to a subject to cause a selective increase in toxicity within tumor cells that, for instance, express all three targets while normal cells that may expresses only one or two of the targets will be significantly less affected or even spared. This invention thus provides an agent, comprising an anti-sense oligonucleotide to two 35 or more mRNAs selected from the group consisting of RNAs corresponding to target genes, to genomic flanking regions, the initiation origin, intron-exon borders, and the like, or the entire sequence of precursor RNAs, including the coding region of mRNAs, non-coding RNA 17 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 segments, the 5'-end and the 3-end, e.g. poly-A segment and oligos targeted to the juxta section between coding and non-coding regions, and RNAs encoding proteins known to be associated with one or more diseases or conditions or mixtures thereof. The agents administered in accordance with this invention are preferably designed to 5 be anti-sense to target genes and/or mRNAs related in origin to the species to which it is to be administered. When treating humans, the agents are preferably designed to be anti-sense to a human gene or RNA. The agents of the invention encompass oligonucleotides which are anti sense to naturally occurring DNA and/or RNA sequences, fragments thereof of up to a length of one (1) base less than the targeted sequence, preferably at least about 7 nucleotides long, 10 oligos having only over about 0.02%, more preferably over about 0.1 %, still more preferably over about 1%, and even more preferably over about 4% adenosine nucleotides, and up to about 30%, more preferably up to about 15%, still more preferably up to about 10% and even more preferably up to about 5%, adenosine nucleotide, or lacking adenosine altogether, and oligos in which one or more of the adenosine nucleotides have been replaced with so-called 15 universal bases, which may pair up with thymidine nucleotides but fail to substantially trigger adenosine receptor activity. Examples of human sequences and fragments, which are not limiting, of anti-sense oligonucleotide of the invention are the following fragments as well as shorter segments of the fragments and of the full gene or mRNA coding sequences, exons and intron-exon junctions encompassing preferably 7, 10, 15, 18 to 21, 24, 27, 30, n-1 nucleotides 20 for each sequence, where n is the sequence's total number of nucleotides. These fragments may be selected from any portion of the longer oligo, for example, from the middle, 5'- end, 3'- end or starting at any other site of the original sequence. Of particular importance are fragments of low adenosine nucleotide content, that is, those fragments containing less than or about 30%, preferably less than or about 15%, more preferably less than or about 10%, and 25 even more preferably less than or about 5 %, and most preferably those devoid of adenosine nucleotide, either by choice or by replacement with a universal base in accordance with this invention. The agent of the invention includes as a most preferred group sequences and their fragments where one or more adenosines present in the sequence have been replaced by a universal base (B), as exemplified here. Similarly, also encompassed are all shorter fragments 30 of the B-containing fragments designed by substitution of B(s) for adenosine(s) (A(s)) contained in the sequences, fragments thereof or segments thereof, as described above. A limited list of sequences and fragments is provided below. Some of the examples of anti-sense oligonucleotide sequence fragments target the initiation codon of the respective gene, and in some cases adenosine is substituted with a 35 universal base adenosine analogue denoted as "B", which lacks ability to bind to the adenosine

A

The agents administered in accordance with this invention are preferably designed to be anti-sense to target genes and/or mRNAs related in origin to the species to which it is to be administered. When treating humans, the agents are preferably designed to be anti-sense to a human gene or RNA. The agents of the invention encompass oligonucleotides which are anti 10 sense to naturally occurring DNA and/or RNA sequences, fragments thereof of up to a length of one (1) base less than the targeted sequence, preferably at least about 7 nucleotides long, oligos having only over about 0.02%, more preferably over about 0.1%, still more preferably over about 1 %, and even more preferably over about 4% adenosine nucleotides, and up to about 30%, more preferably up to about 15%, still more preferably up to about 10% and even 15 more preferably up to about 5%, adenosine nucleotide, or lacking adenosine altogether, and oligos in which one or more of the adenosine nucleotides have been replaced with so-called universal bases, which may pair up with thymidine nucleotides but fail to substantially trigger adenosine receptor activity.

In another preferred, at least one mononucleotide phosphodiester residue of the anti-sense oligonucleotide(s) is substituted by a methylphosphonate, phosphotriester, phosphorothioate, phosphorodithioate, boranophosphate, formacetal, thioformacetal, thioether, carbonate, carbamate, sulfate, sulfonate, sulfamate, sulfonamide, sulfone, sulfite, sulfoxide, 5 sulfide, hydroxylamine, 2'-O-methyl, methylene(methyimino), methyleneoxy (methylimino), phosphoramidate residues, and combinations thereof. The MTA oligos having one or more phosphodiester residues substituted by one or more of the other residues are generally longer lasting, given that these residues are more resistant to hydrolysis than the phosphodiester residue. In some cases up to about 10%, about 30%, about 50%, about 75%, and even all 10 phosphodiester residues may be substituted (100%). Typically, the multiple target anti-sense oligonucleotide (MTA oligo) of the invention comprises at least about 7 mononucleotides, in some instances up to 60 and more mononucleotides, preferably about 10 to about 36, and more preferably about 12 to about 21 mononucleotides. However, other lengths are also suitable depending on the length of the 15 target macromolecule.

The methods for substituting nucleotide, as well as for synthesizing oligonucleotides of a specific sequence, and which bases to employ as universal bases are known in the art, and need not be further provided here, since they are within the knowledge of an artisan. 35 In a further embodiment of the agent of the invention, the MTA oligo is operatively linked to an agent or molecule which, itself, is internalized or up-taken by living cells. In this manner, the uptake of the agent of the invention is enhanced as is known in the art. Examples of agents or molecules suitable for use with the MTA oligos of this invention are transferrin, asialoglycoprotein, and streptavidin. Others, however, are also suitable. 40 The present agents are also provided as a pharmaceutical composition comprising an anti-sense oligonucleotide as given above in an amount effective to reduce expression of a target mRNA, by passing through a cell membrane and binding specifically with target mRNA in the cell so as to prevent its translation are another aspect of the present invention. Such compositions are provided in a suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, e.g. sterile 45 pyrogen-free saline solution. The agent of the invention may be formulated with a hydrophobic carrier capable of passing through a cell membrane, e.g. in a liposome, with the liposomes 77 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 carried in a pharmaceutically acceptable aqueous carrier. The oligonucleotides may be coupled to an agent which inactivates mRNA, such as a ribozyme. Such oligonucleotides may be administered to a subject in need of such treatment to inhibit the activation of specific receptors, enzymes and/or proteins and/or factors, among other expression products. The 5 pharmaceutical formulation may also comprise chimeric molecules comprising anti-sense oligonucleotides attached to molecules which are known to be internalized by cells. These oligonucleotide conjugates utilize cellular up-take pathways to increase intracellular concentrations of the oligonucleotide. Examples of molecules used in this manner are macromolecules including transferrin, asialoglycoprotein (bound to oligonucleotides via 10 polylysine) and streptavidin, among others. The anti-sense compound may be contained in the pharmaceutical formulation within a lipid particle or vesicle, such as a liposome or microcrystal. The particles may be of any suitable structure, such as unilamellar or plurilamellar. The one preferred embodiment, the anti-sense oligonucleotide is comprised within the liposome. Positively charged lipids such as 15 N-[1-(2, 3 -dioleoyloxi) propyl] -N, N, N-trimethylammoniumethylsulfate, or "DOTAP," are particularly preferred for such particles and vesicles. However, others are also suitable. The preparation of such lipid particles is well known. See, e.g., US Patent Nos. 4,880,635 to Janoff et al., 4,906,477 to Kurono et al., 4,911,928 to Wallach, 4,917,951 to Wallach, 4,920,016 to Allen et al., 4,921,757 to Wheatley et al., the relevant sections of all of which 20 are herein incorporated in their entireties by reference. The composition of the invention may be administered by any means which transports the agent to the lungs. The present agents may be administered to the lungs of a patient by any suitable means, but are preferably administered through the respiratory system as a respirable formulation, more preferably in the form of an aerosol comprising respirable particles which, 25 in turn, comprise the agent for respiration or inhalation by the subject. The respirable particles may be in gaseous, liquid or solid form, and they may, optionally, contain other therapeutic ingredients and formulation components. The particles of the present invention are preferably particles of respirable size, preferably of a size sufficiently small to pass, upon inhalation, through the mouth and larynx 30 and into the bronchi and alveoli of the lungs. In general, particles ranging from about 0.5 to 10 microns in diameter are respirable. However, other sizes may also be suitable. Particles of non-respirable size, of considerably larger diameter, which are included in the respirable formulation tend to deposit in the throat and may be swallowed. Accordingly, it is desirable to minimize the quantity of non-respirable particles in the aerosol. For nasal administration, 35 a particle size in the range of 10-500 pm is preferred to ensure their retention in the nasal cavity. 78 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 Liquid pharmaceutical compositions of the agent of the invention for producing a respirable formulation, e.g. an aerosol may be prepared by combining the anti-sense oligo with a suitable vehicle or carrier, such as sterile pyrogen-free water and/or other known pharmaceutically or veterinarily acceptable carrier. Other therapeutic compounds may be 5 included as well as other formulation ingredients as is known in the art. Solid particulate compositions comprising respirable dry particles of, e.g. the micronized agent of the invention may be prepared by grinding the dry anti-sense compound with a mortar and pestle, and then passing the thus ground, e.g. micronized composition through a screen, e.g. 400 mesh screen, to break up or separate large agglomerates of 10 particles. A solid particulate composition comprising the anti-sense compound may optionally also comprise a dispersant and other known agents, which serve to facilitate the formation of a mist or aerosol. A suitable dispersant is lactose, which may be blended with the anti-sense compound in any suitable ratio, about 1:1 w/w. Other ratios may be utilized as well, and other therapeutic and formulation agents may also be included. 15 Aerosols of liquid particles comprising the agent may be produced by any suitable means, such as with an insufflator or nebulizer. See, e.g., US Patent No. 4,501,729. Nebulizers are commercially available devices which transform solutions or suspensions of an agent into a therapeutic aerosol mist either by means of acceleration of a compressed gas, typically air or oxygen, e.g. through a narrow venturi orifice or by means of ultrasonic 20 agitation.

The composition of the present invention may be administered into the respiratory 30 system as a formulation including particles of respirable size, e.g. particles of a size sufficiently small to pass through the nose, mouth and larynx upon inhalation and through the bronchi and alveoli of the lungs. In general, respirable particles range from about 0.5 to 10 microns in size. Particles of non-respirable size which are included in the aerosol tend to deposit in the throat and be swallowed, and the quantity of non-respirable particles in the 35 aerosol is thus minimized. For nasal administration, a particle size in the range of 10-500 pim is preferred to ensure retention in the nasal cavity. 81 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Aerosols or mists of solid particles comprising the agent of the invention may likewise be produced with any device that generates solid particulate medicament aerosols or mists. Aerosol and mist generators are suitable for administering solid particulate medicaments. These devices produce respirable particles, as explained above., and generate a volume of 5 aerosol or mist containing a predetermined metered dose of a medicament at a rate suitable for human or animal administration. One illustrative type of solid particulate aerosol generator is an insufflator. Suitable formulations for administration by insufflation include finely comminuted powders which may be delivered by means of an insufflator or taken into the nasal cavity in the manner of a snuff.

These capsules or cartridges are typically made of gelatin or plastic, and may be pierced or opened in situ, and the powder delivered by air drawn through the device upon inhalation or by means of a manually-operated pump. The powder employed in the insufflator may consist either solely of the agent or of a powder blend comprising the agent, a suitable powder diluent, 15 such as lactose, and an optional surfactant as well as other agents. The agent typically comprises from 0.01 to 100 w/w of the formulation. A second type of illustrative aerosol generator comprises a metered dose inhaler. Metered dose inhalers are pressurized aerosol dispensers, typically comprising a suspension or solution formulation of the active ingredient in a liquified propellant.

The aerosol, whether formed from solid or liquid particles, may be produced by the aerosol generator at a rate of from about 10 to 150 liters per minute, more preferably from about 30 to 150 liters per minute, and most preferably about 60 liters per minute. Aerosols containing greater amounts of medicament may be administered more rapidly. 30 As already indicated, the agent of this invention is also provided as a composition, comprising the agent of the invention, and a carrier.

However, other ingredients, and other amounts of the agent are also suitable within the confines of this invention. The agent of the invention is also provided in various formulations which are tailored for different methods of administration and routes of delivery. The formulations that are 10 contemplated are, for example, a transdermal formulation also containing carrier(s) and other agents suitable for delivery through the skin, mouth, nose, vagina, anus, eyes, ears, other body cavities, intradermally, as a sustained release formulation, intracranial, intrathecally, intravascularly, by inhalation, intrapulmonarily, into an organ, by implantation, including suppositories, cremes, gels, and the like, as is known in the art.

In another the carrier comprises a hydrophobic carrier, such as lipid particles or vesicles, including liposomes and micro crystals. The preparation of all of these formulations, as well as the ingredients to be utilized are known in the art, and need not be further described here. In one particularly preferred embodiment of the vesicle formulation, the vesicles comprise liposomes containing the anti-sense 20 oligonucleotide. The lipid vesicles may comprise N-(1-[ 2, 3-dioleoxyloxi] propyl) -N,N,N trimethyl- ammonium methylsulfate as well as other lipids known in the art to provide suitable delivery of DNA to target cells.

The single metered dose nebulizer may be provided as a disposable kit which is sterilely preloaded with enough agent for one application. The nebulizer may be provided as an insufflator, and the composition in a piercable or openable capsule or cartridge. In a different embodiment, the delivery device comprises a pressurized inhaler, and the agent is in the form of a suspension or solution.

When a solvent for the agent or the other ingredients is added, organic solvents and organic solvents mixed with one or more co-solvents may be utilized as well as aqueous 5 solvents as is known in the art. The agent of the invention may be provided in conjunction with a vector for delivery purposes, or for manufacturing copies thereof. The agent may be operatively linked to the vector as is known in the art. The agent may also be provided within a host cell for amplification of the MTA oligo, and for storage purposes. 10 The agent of this invention may be utilized by itself or in the form of a composition or various formulations in the treatment of a disease or condition associated with the mRNA corresponding to at least one target gene(s), to genomic flanking regions, initiation codon, intron-exon borders and the like, or the entire sequence of precursor RNAs, including non coding RNA segments, the 5'-end and the 3'-end, e.g. poly-A segment and oligos targeted to 15 the juxta-section between coding and non-coding regions, and RNA regions encoding proteins, by administration to a subject afflicted with the disease or condition of an amount of the anti sense oligonucleotide effective to reduce the production or availability, or to increase the degradation by the subject of at least one of the target mRNAs. Typically, the agent is administered in an amount effective to reduce the production or availability, or to increase the 20 degradation of at least two of the target mRNAs. Optionally, the agent is administered directly to the lung (s) of the subject, preferably as a respirable aerosol. Although an artisan will know how to titrate the amount of agent to be administered by the weight of the subjected being treated in accordance with the teachings of this patent, the agent is preferably administered in an amount effective to attain an intracellular concentration of about 0.05 to about 10 yM 25 multiple targeted anti-sense oligonucleotide, preferably in an amount effective to attain an intracellular concentration of up to about 5 pM multiple targeted anti-sense oligonucleotide. The treatment provided in this patent is suitable for treating numerous diseases and conditions, and its application is solely limited by the availability of target molecules and their sequences. One type of disease or condition for which this technology is particularly well 30 suited are lung diseases or conditions. For this type of application, at least one of the target mRNA encodes a protein such as the adenosine A receptor, adenosine A 2 B receptor, adenosine

A

3 receptor, and bradykinin B2 receptor. However, other targets are also suitable. In one application, the disease or condition is associated with obstruction of the subject's airways, in another specifically with asthma, etc. One of the preferred target proteins comprises the NfKB 35 transcription factor, although others which were described above are also suitable. In another preferred application, the disease or condition is associated with inflammation. For this type 84 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 of application at least one of the target mRNA preferably encodes a protein selected from the group consisting of interleukins, chemokines, Rantes and receptors thereof. Still another application is for treating a disease or condition associated with an allergy. For this application, the mRNA preferably encodes a target selected from the group consisting of an antibody and 5 an antibody receptor. For the application of this technology to a disease or condition associated with a malignancy or cancer, the mRNA preferably encodes a target selected from the group consisting of oncogenes, an immunoglobulin and an antibody receptor. Depending on the target organ or tissue, the agent of the invention may be delivered in one of many ways, for example, by a transdermal or systemic route, and more specifically 10 orally, intracavitarily, intranasally, intraanally, intravaginally, transdermally, intrabucally, intravenously, subcutaneously, intramuscularly, intratumorously, into a gland, by implantation, intradermally, and many other routes of administration. The formulation may be, in addition, an implant, slow release, transdermal release, sustained release, and coated with one or more macromolecules to avoid destruction of the agent prior to reaching the selected target. The 15 subject that may be treated by the present agent are varied, and include humans and other animals in general, and in particular vertebrates, and amongst these mammals, and more specifically humans, and small and large, wild and domesticated, marine and farm animals, and preferably humans and domesticated and farm animals. In one aspect of the invention, at least one of the target mRNAs and the subject are of the same species, and in a preferred case they 20 are of human origin. However, since in one embodiment mismatched nucleotides are replaced, mismatched species may also be utilized. The multiple targeted anti-sense oligonucleotide of this invention may be administered in a broad dose range. Preferable is an amount of about 0.005 to about 150 mg/kg body weight per administration, and the agent may be administered from once in an acute treatment to 25 several doses per day, to a continuous administration to maintain the level of a specific molecule. Preferred doses are about 0.01 to about 75 mg/kg body weight, more preferably about 1 to 50 mg/kg body weight. The method may be administered as a prophylactic or therapeutic method. The agent of the invention may be produced by selecting two or more targets selected 30 from the group consisting of genes, genomic flanking regions, mRNAs and proteins known to be associated with at least one disease or condition; obtaining RNAs selected from the group consisting of RNAs corresponding to the genes, to genomic flanking regions, initiation codon, intron-exon borders and the like, or the entire sequence of RNAs, including non-coding RNA segments, the 5'-end and the 3'-end, e.g. the poly-A segment and oligos targeted to the juxta 35 section between coding and non-coding regions, and RNA segments encoding the target proteins; selecting a segment of a first RNA which is at least about 60% homologous to a 85 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 segment of at least a segment of a second RNA; and synthesizing one or more anti-sense oligonucleotide(s) to the one or more RNA segments. In one preferred embodiment, the method further comprises substituting a universal base for at least one, and in some instances all , non-homologous nucleotide in the anti-sense oligonucleotide, and in another preferred 5 embodiment the method further comprises substituting a methylated cytosine for cytosine in at least one CpG dinucleotide present in the anti-sense oligonucleotide. The technology involved in methylation is known in the art and need not be further described here. Although the specific length of the MTA oligo is determined by the target's length, and its segments containing few thymidines, the anti-sense oligonucleotide(s) are preferably greater 10 than about 7 nucleotides long, and up to about 60 nucleotides long, and longer. The specific backbone chemistry may by selected by an artisan based on the teachings provided here and the knowledge of the art at large. One factor that impinges on the selection of the nucleotide bridging residues is the level of nuclease resistance desired and other factors specific to one or the other method of administration. Another factor is the need for localization of the 15 treatment, to minimize or fully avoid side effects which might otherwise be caused along with the therapeutic effect of the agent. The following examples are provided to illustrate the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting thereon. In these examples, tM means micromolar, ml means milliliters, pM means micrometers, mm means millimeters, cm means centimeters, 'C means 20 degrees Celsius, pg means micrograms, mg means milligrams, g means grams, kg means kilograms, M means molar, and h means hours. EXAMPLES Example 1: Design and Synthesis of Anti-sense Oligonucleotides The design of anti-sense oligonucleotides against the A and A 3 adenosine receptors may 25 require the solution of the complex secondary structure of the target A receptor mRNA and the target A 3 receptor mRNA. After generating this structure, anti-sense nucleotide are designed which target regions of mRNA which might be construed to confer functional activity or stability to the mRNA and which optimally may overlap the initiation codon. Other target sites are readily usable. As a demonstration of specificity of the anti-sense effect, other 30 oligonucleotides not totally complementary to the target mRNA, but containing identical nucleotide compositions on a w/w basis, are included as controls in anti-sense experiments. The mRNA secondary structure of the adenosine A receptor was analyzed and used as described above. to design a phosphorothioate anti-sense oligonucleotide. The anti-sense oligonucleotide which was synthesized was designated HAdAAS and had the following 35 sequence: 86 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 5' -GAT GGA GGG CGG CAT GGC GGG-3' (SEQ ID NO:1) As a control, a mismatched phosphorothioate anti-sense nucleotide designated HAdAIMMI was synthesized with the following sequence: 5' -GTA GCA GGC GGG GAT GGG GGC-3' (SEQ ID NO:2) 5 Each oligonucleotide had identical base content and general sequence structure. Homology searches in GENBANK (release 85.0) and EMBL (release 40.0) indicated that the anti-sense oligonucleotide was specific for the human and rabbit adenosine A, receptor genes, and that the mismatched control was not a candidate for hybridization with any known gene sequence. 10 The secondary structure of the adenosine A 3 receptor mRNA was similarly analyzed and used as described above to design two phosphorothioate anti-sense oligonucleotides. The first anti-sense oligonucleotide (HAdA3AS1) synthesized had the following sequence: 5' -GTT GTT GGG CAT CTT GCC-3' (SEQ ID NO:3) As a control, a mismatched phosphorothioate anti-sense oligonucleotide (HAdA3MM1) 15 was synthesized, having the following sequence: 5' -GTA CTT GCG GAT CTA GGC-3' (SEQ ID NO:4) A second phosphorothioate anti-sense oligonucleotide (HAdA3AS2) was also designed and synthesized, having the following sequence: 5' -GTG GGC CTA GCT CTC GCC-3' (SEQ ID NO:5) 20 Its control oligonucleotide (HAdA3MM2) had the sequence: 5' -GTC GGG GTA CCT GTC GGC-3' (SEQ ID NO:6) Phosphorothioate oligonucleotides were synthesized on an Applied Biosystems Model 396 Oligonucleotide Synthesizer, and purified using NENSORB chromatography (DuPont, MD). 25 Example 2: In Vivo Testing of Adenosine A, Receptor Anti-sense Oligos The anti-sense oligonucleotide against the human A 1 receptor (SEQ ID NO:1) described above. was tested for efficacy in an in vitro model utilizing lung adenocarcinoma cells HTB 54. HTB-54 lung adenocarcinoma cells were demonstrated to express the A, adenosine receptor 30 using standard northern blotting procedures and receptor probes designed and synthesized in the laboratory. HTB-54 human lung adenocarcinoma cells (106/100 mm tissue culture dish) were exposed to 5.0 ytM HAdA1AS or HAdAlMM1 for 24 hours, with a fresh change of media and oligonucleotides after 12 hours of incubation. Following 24 hour exposure to the 35 oligonucleotides, cells were harvested and their RNA extracted by standard procedures. A 21 mer probe corresponding to the region of mRNA targeted by the anti-sense (and therefore 87 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 having the same sequence as the anti-sense, but not phosphorothioated) was synthesized and used to probe northern blots of RNA prepared from HAdAlAS-treated, HAdA1MM 1-treated and non-treated HTB-54 cells. These blots showed clearly that HAdAlAS but not HAdAlMM1 effectively reduced human adenosine receptor mRNA by >50%. This result showed that 5 HAdAlAS is a good candidate for an anti-asthma drug since it depletes intracellular mRNA for the adenosine A 1 receptor, which is involved in asthma. Example 3: In Vivo Efficacy of Adenosine Al Receptor Anti-sense Oligos A fortuitous homology between the rabbit and human DNA sequences within the 10 adenosine A 1 gene overlapping the initiation codon permitted the use of the phosphorothioate anti-sense oligonucleotides initially designed for use against the human adenosine A receptor in a rabbit model. Neonatal New Zealand white Pasteurella-free rabbits were immunized intraperitoneally within 24 hours of birth with 312 antigen units/ml house dustmite (D. farinae) extract 15 (Berkeley Biologicals, Berkeley, CA), mixed with 10% kaolin. Immunizations were repeated weekly for the first month and then biweekly for the next 2 months. At 3-4 months of age, eight sensitized rabbits were anesthetized and relaxed with a mixture of ketamine hydrochloride (44 mg/kg) and acepromazine maleate (0.4 mg/kg) administered intramuscularly. The rabbits were then laid supine in a comfortable position on a small molded, padded 20 animal board and intubated with a 4.0-mm intratracheal tube (Mallinkrodt, Inc., Glens Falls, NY). A polyethylene catheter of external diameter 2.4 mm with an attached latex balloon was passed into the esophagus and maintained at the same distance (approximately 16 cm) from the mouth throughout the experiments. The intratracheal tube was attached to a heated Fleisch pneumotachograph (size 00; DOM Medical, Richmond, VA), and flow was measured using 25 a Validyne differential pressure transducer (Model DP-45161927; Validyne Engineering Corp., Northridge, CA) driven by a Gould carrier amplifier (Model 11-4113; Gould Electronic, Cleveland, OH). The esophageal balloon was attached to one side of the differential pressure transducer, and the outflow of the intratracheal tube was connected to the opposite side of the pressure transducer to allow recording of transpulmonary pressure. Flow was integrated to 30 give a continuous tidal volume, and measurements of total lung resistance (RL) and dynamic compliance (Cdyn) were calculated at isovolumetric and flow zero points, respectively, using an automated respiratory analyzer (Model 6; Buxco, Sharon, CT). Animals were randomized and on Day 1 pretreatment values for PC50 were obtained for aerosolized adenosine. Anti-sense (HAdAlAS) or mismatched control (HAdAlMM) 35 oligonucleotides were dissolved in sterile physiological saline at a concentration of 5000 pg 88 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 (5 mg) per 1.0 ml. Animals were subsequently administered the aerosolized anti-sense or mismatch oligonucleotide via the intratracheal tube (approximately 5000 pg in a volume of 1.0 ml), twice daily for two days. Aerosols of either saline, adenosine, or anti-sense or mismatch oligonucleotides were generated by an ultrasonic nebulizer (DeVilbiss, Somerset, PA), 5 producing aerosol droplets 80% of which were smaller than 5 tm in diameter. In the first arm of the experiment, four randomly selected allergic rabbits were administered anti-sense oligonucleotide and four the mismatched control oligonucleotide. On the morning of the third day, PC50 values (the concentration of aerosolized adenosine in mg/ml required to reduce the dynamic compliance of the bronchial airway 50% from the 10 baseline value) were obtained and compared to PC50 values obtained for these animals prior to exposure to oligonucleotide. Following a 1 week interval, animals were crossed over, with those previously administered mismatch control oligonucleotide now administered anti-sense oligonucleotide, and those previously treated with anti-sense oligonucleotide now administered mismatch 15 control oligonucleotide. Treatment methods and measurements were identical to those employed in the first arm of the experiment. It should be noted that in six of the eight animals treated with anti-sense oligonucleotide, adenosine-mediated bronchoconstriction could not be obtained up to the limit of solubility of adenosine, 20 mg/ml. For the purpose of calculation, PC50 values for these animals were set at 20 mg/ml. The values given therefore represent a 20 minimum figure for anti-sense effectiveness. Actual effectiveness was higher. The results of this experiment are illustrated in Table 3 below. 89 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Table 3: Effect of Adenosine A 1 Receptor Anti-sense Oligo upon PC50 Values in Asthmatic Rabbits Mismatch Control A, Receptor Anti-sense Oligo 5 Pre Oligonucleotide Post Oligonucleotide Pre Oligonucleotide Post Oligonucleotide .56 ± 1.02 5.16 ± 1.03 .36 ± 0.68 >19.5 ± 0.34** The results are presented as the mean (n=8) ± SEM. The significance was determined by repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Tukey's protected test. **Significantly different from all other groups, p <0.01. 10 In both arms of the experiment, animals receiving the anti-sense oligonucleotide showed an order of magnitude increase in the dose of aerosolized adenosine required to reduce dynamic compliance of the lung by 50%. No effect of the mismatched control oligonucleotide upon 15 PC50 values was observed. No toxicity was observed in any animal receiving either anti-sense or control inhaled oligonucleotide. These results show clearly that the lung has exceptional potential as a target for anti sense oligonucleotide-based therapeutic intervention in lung disease. They further show, in a model system which closely resembles human asthma, that downregulation of the adenosine 20 A, receptor largely eliminates adenosine-mediated bronchoconstriction in asthmatic airways. Bronchial hyperresponsiveness in the allergic rabbit model of human asthma is an excellent endpoint for anti-sense intervention since the tissues involved in this response lie near to the point of contact with aerosolized oligonucleotides, and the model closely simulates an important human disease. 25 Example 4: Specificity of A 1 -adenosine Receptor Anti-sense Oligonucleotide At the conclusion of the cross-over experiment of Example 3 above, airway smooth muscle from all rabbits was quantitatively analyzed for adenosine A receptor number. As a control for the specificity of the anti-sense oligonucleotide, adenosine A 2 receptors, which should not have been affected, were also quantified. 30 Airway smooth muscle tissue was dissected from each rabbit and a membrane fraction prepared according to the method of Kleinstein et al. (Kleinstein, J. and Glossmann, H., Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's Arch. Pharmacol. 305: 191-200 (1978)), the relevant portion of which is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference, with slight modifications. Crude plasma membrane preparations were stored at 70 C until the time of assay. Protein content was 35 determined by the method of Bradford (M. Bradford, Anal. Biochem. 72, 240-254 (1976), the relevant portion of which is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference). Frozen plasma 90 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 membranes were thawed at room temperature and were incubated with 0.2 U/ml adenosine deaminase for 30 minutes at 37'C to remove endogenous adenosine. The binding of [ 3 H] DPCPX (A, receptor-specific) or [ 3 H] CGS-21680 (A, receptor-specific) was measured as previously described by Ali et al. (Ali, S. et al., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 268, Am. J.

The animals treated with adenosine Al anti-sense oligonucleotide in the cross-over experiment had a nearly 75% decrease in Al receptor number compared to controls, as assayed by specific binding of the A,-specific antagonist DPCPX. There was no change in adenosine 10 A 2 receptor number, as assayed by specific binding of the A 2 receptor-specific agonist 2- [p (2-carboxyethyl)-phenethylamino] -5' - (N-ethylcarboxamido) adenosine (CGS-21680). This is illustrated in Table 4 below.

The above results illustrate the effectiveness of anti-sense oligonucleotides in treating 25 airway disease. Since the anti-sense oligos described above. eliminate the receptor systems responsible for adenosine-mediated bronchoconstriction, it may be less imperative to eliminate adenosine from them. However, it would be preferable to eliminate adenosine from even these oligonucleotides to reduce the dose needed to attain a similar effect. Described above are other anti-sense oligonucleotides targeting mRNA of proteins involved in inflammation. Adenosine 30 has been eliminated from their nucleotide content to prevent its liberation during degradation. Example 5: Anti-sense Oligos directed to other Target Nucleic Acids This work was conducted to demonstrate that the present invention is broadly applicable to anti-sense oligonucleotides ("oligos") specific to nucleic acid targets broadly. The following experimental studies were conducted to show that the method of the invention is broadly 35 suitable for use with anti-sense oligos designed as taught by this application and targeted to any 91 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 and all adenosine receptor mRNAs. For this purpose, various anti-sense oligos were porepared to adenosine receptor mRNAs exemplified by the adenosine A,, A 2 b and A 3 receptor mRNAs. Anti-sense Oligo I was disclosed above (SEQ. ID NO:1).Five additional anti-sense phosphorothioate oligos were designed asnd synthesized as indicated above. 5 1- Oligo II (SEQ. ID NO: 7) also targeted to the adenosine A, receptor, but to a different region than Oligo I. 2- Oligo V (SEQ. ID NO: 10) targeted to the adenosine A 2 b receptor. 3- Oligos III (SEQ. ID NO: 8) and IV (SEQ. ID NO: 9) targeted to different regions of the adenosine A 3 receptor. 10 4- Oligo I-PD (SEQ. ID NO: 1681)(a phosphodiester oligo of the same sequence as Oligo I). These anti-sense oligos were designed for therapy on a selected species as described above and are generally specific for that species, unless the segment of the target mRNA of other species happens to contain a similar sequences. All anti-sense oligos were prepared as 15 described below, and tested in vivo in a rabbit model for bronchoconstriction, inflammation and allergy, which have breathing difficulties and impeded lung airways, as is the case in ailments such as asthma, as described in the above-identified application. Example 6: Design & Sequences of other Anti-sense Oligos Six oligos and their effects in a rabbit model were studied and the results of these 20 studies are reported and discussed below. Five of these oligos were selected for this study to complement the data on Oligo I (SEQ ID NO: 1) provided in Examples 1 to 4 above. This oligo is anti-sense to one region of the adenosine A receptor mRNA. The oligos tested are identified as anti-sense Oligos I (SEQ ID NO: 1) and II (SEQ. ID No: 7) targeted to a different region of the adenosine A receptor mRNA, Oligo V (SEQ. ID No:8) 25 targeted to the adenosine A 2 b receptor mRNA, and anti-sense Oligos III and IV (SEQ. ID NOS: 9 and 10) targeted to two different regions of the adenosine A, receptor mRNA. The sixth oligo (Oligo I-PD) is a phosphodiester version of Oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1). The design and synthesis of these anti-sense oligos was performed in accordance with Example 1 above. (I) Anti-sense Oligo I 30 The anti-sense oligonucleotide I referred to in Examples 1 to 4 above is targeted to the human A adenosine receptor mRNA (EPI 2010). Anti-sense oligo I is 21 nucleotide long, overlaps the initiation codon, and has the following sequence. 5'- GAT GGA GGG CGG CAT GGC GGG -3' (:SEQ. ID No 1) The oligo I was previously shown to abrogate the adenosine-induced 35 bronchoconstriction in allergic rabbits, and to reduce allergen-induced airway obstruction and 92 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR), as discussed above and shown by Nyce, J. W. & Metzger, W. J., Nature, 385:721 (1977), the relevant portions of which reference are incorporated in their entireties herein by reference. (II) Anti-sense Oligo II 5 A phosphorothioate anti-sense oligo (SEQ. ID NO:7) was designed in accordance with the invention to target the rabbit adenosine A receptor mRNA region +936 to +956 relative to the initiation codon (start site). The anti-sense oligo II is 21 nucleotide long, and has the following sequence. 5'-CTC GTC GCC GTC GCC GGC GGG-3' (SEQ. ID NO:7) 10 (III) Anti-sense Oligo III A phosphorothioate anti-sense oligo other than that provided in Example 1 above (SEQ. ID NO:8) was designed in accordance with the invention to target the anti-sense As receptor mRNA region +3 to + 22 relative to the initiation codon start site. The anti-sense oligo III is 20 nucleotide long, and has the following sequence. 15 5'-GGG TGG TGC TAT TGT CGG GC-3' (SEQ. ID NO:8) (IV) Anti-sense Oligo IV Yet another phosphorothioate anti-sense oligo (SEQ. ID NO:9) was designed in accordance with the invention to target the adenosine A 3 receptor mRNA region + 386 to + 401 relative to the initiation codon (start site). The anti-sense oligo IV is 15 nucleotide long, 20 and has the following sequence. 5'-GGC CCA GGG CCA GCC-3' (SEQ. ID NO:9) (V) Anti-sense Oligo V A phosphorothioate anti-sense oligo (SEQ. ID NO:10) was designed in accordance with the invention to target the adenosine A 2 b receptor mRNA region -21 to -1 relative to the 25 initiation codon (start site). The anti-sense oligonucleotide V is 21 nucleotide long, and has the following sequence. 5'-GGC CGG GCC AGC CGG GCC CGG-3' (SEQ. ID NO:10) (VI) A, Mismatch Oligos Two different mismatched oligonucleotides having the following sequences were used 30 as controls for anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO: 1) described in Example 5 above. Ai MM2 5'-GTA GGT GGC GGG CAA GGC GGG-3' (SEQ. ID NO:1682) A, MM3 5'-GAT GGA GGC GGG CAT GGC GGG-3' (SEQ. ID NO:1683) Anti-sense oligo I and the two mismatch anti-sense oligos had identical base content and general sequence structure. Homology searches in GENBANK (release 85.0) and EMBL 35 (release 40.0) indicated that the anti-sense oligo I was specific, not only for the human, but also for the rabbit, adenosine A, receptor genes, and that the mismatched controls were not candidates for hybridization with any known human or animal gene sequence. 93 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 (VII) Anti-sense Oligo A,-PD (Oligo VI) A phosphodiester anti-sense oligo (Oligo VI; SEQ. ID NO:1681) having the same nucleotide sequence as Oligo I was designed as disclosed in the above-identified application. Anti-sense oligo I-PD is 21 nucleotide long, overlaps the initiation codon, and has the 5 following sequence. 5'- GAT GGA GGG CGG CAT GGC GGG -3' (SEQ. ID NO:1681) III) Controls Each rabbit was administered 5.0 ml aerosolized sterile saline following the same schedule as for the anti-sense oligos in (II), (III), and (IV) above. 10 Example 7: Synthesis of Anti-sense Oligos Phosphorothioate anti-sense oligos having the sequences described in (a) above, were synthesized on an Applied Biosystems Model 396 Oligonucleotide Synthesizer, and purified using NENSORB chromatography (DuPont, DE). TETD (tetraethylthiuram disulfide) was used as the sulfurizing agent during the synthesis. Anti-sense oligonucleotide II (SEQ. ID NO:7), 15 anti-sense oligonucleotide III (SEQ. ID NO: 8) and anti-sense oligonucleotide IV (SEQ. ID NO: 9) were each synthesized and purified in this manner. Example 8: Preparation of Allergic Rabbits Neonatal New Zealand white Pasturella-free rabbits were immunized intraperitoneally within 24 hours of birth with 0.5 ml of 312 antigen units/ml house dust mite (D. farinae) 20 extract (Berkeley Biologicals, Berkeley, CA) mixed with 10% kaolin as previously described (Metzger, W. J., in Late Phase Allergic Reactions, Dorsch, W., Ed., CRC Handbook, pp. 347-362, CRC Press, Boca Raton (1990); Ali, S., Metzger, W. J. and Mustafa, S. J., Am. J. Resp. Crit. Care Med. 149: 908 (1994)), the relevant portions of which are incorporated in their entireties here by reference. Immunizations were repeated weekly for the first month and 25 then biweekly until the age of 4 months. These rabbits preferentially produce allergen-specific IgE antibody, typically respond to aeroallergen challenge with both an early and late-phase asthmatic response, and show bronchial hyper responsiveness (BHR). Monthly intraperitoneal administration of allergen (312 units dust mite allergen, as above) continues to stimulate and maintain allergen-specific IgE antibody and BHR. At 4 months of age, sensitized rabbits were 30 prepared for aerosol administration as described by Ali et al. (Ali, S., Metzger, W. J. and Mustafa, S. J., Am. J. Resp. Crit. Care Med. 149 (1994)), the relevant section being incorporated in its entirety here by reference. DOSE-RESPONSE STUDIES 94 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Example: Experimental Setup Aerosols of either adenosine (0-20 mg/ml), or anti-sense or one of two mismatch oligonucleotides (5 mg/ml) were separately prepared with an ultrasonic nebulizer (Model 646, DeVilbiss, Somerset, PA), which produced aerosol droplets, 80% of which were smaller than 5 5pim in diameter. Equal volumes of the aerosols were administered directly to the lungs via an intratracheal tube. The animals were randomized, and administered aerosolized adenosine. Day 1 pre treatment values for sensitivity to adenosine were calculated as the dose of adenosine causing a 50% loss of compliance (PC 50 Adenosine). The animals were then administered either the 10 aerosolized anti-sense or one of the mismatch anti-sense oligos via the intratracheal tube (5 mg/1.0 ml), for 2 minutes, twice daily for 2 days (total dose, 20 mg). Post-treatment PC 50 values were recorded (post-treatment challenge) on the morning of the third day. The results of these studies are provided in Example 21 below. Example 10: Crossover Experiments 15 For some experiments utilizing anti-sense oligo I (SEQ ID NO: 1) and a corresponding mismatch control oligonucleotide A1MM2, following a 2 week interval, the animals were crossed over, with those previously administered the mismatch control AIMM2, now receiving the anti-sense oligo I, and those previously treated with the anti-sense oligo I, now receiving the mismatch control AjMM2 oligo. 20 The number of animals per group was as follows. For mismatch A 1 MM2 (Control 1), n=7, since one animal was lost in the second control arm of the experiment due to technical difficulties, for mismatch AIMM3 n=4 (Control 2) and for A 1 AS anti-sense oligo I, n= 8. The AMM3 oligo-treated animals were analyzed separately and were not part of the cross-over experiment. The treatment methods and measurements employed following the cross-over 25 were identical to those employed in the first arm of the experiment. In 6 of the 8 animals treated with the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO: 1), no PC 0 value could be obtained for adenosine doses of up to 20 mg/ml, which is the limit of solubility of adenosine. Accordingly, the PC 50 values for these animals were assumed to be 20 mg/ml for calculation purposes. The values given, therefore, represent a minimum figure for the 30 effectiveness of the anti-sense oligonucleotides of the invention. Other groups of allergic rabbits (n=4 for each group) were administered 0.5 or 0.05 mg doses of the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ ID NO: 1), or the AMM2 oligo in the manner and according to the schedule described above (the total doses being 2.0 or 0.2 mg). The results of these studies are provided in Example 22 below. 95 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Example 11: Anti-sense Oligo Formulation Each one of anti-sense oligos were separately solubilized in an aqueous solution and administered as described for anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID No:1) in (e) above, in four 5 mg aliquots (20 mg total dose) by means of a nebulizer via endotracheal tube, as described above. 5 The results obtained for anti-sense oligo I and its mismatch controls confirmed that the mismatch controls are equivalent to saline, as described in Example 19 below and in Table 1 of Nyce & Metzger, Nature 385, 721-725 (1997). Because of this finding, saline was used as a control for pulmonary function studies employing anti-sense oligos II, III and IV (SEQ. IS NOS; 7, 8 and 9). 10 Example 12: Specificity of Oligo I for Adenosine A Receptor (Receptor Binding Studies) Tissue from airway smooth muscle was dissected to primary, secondary and tertiary bronchi from rabbits which had been administered 20 mg oligo I (SEQ ID NO: 1) in 4 divided doses over a period of 48 hours as described above. A membrane fraction was prepared according to the method of Ali et al. (Ali, S., et al., Am. J. Resp. Crit. Care Med. 149: 908 15 (1994), the relevant section relating to the preparation of the membrane fraction is incorporated in its entirety hereby by reference). The protein content was determined by the method of Bradford and plasma membranes were incubated with 0.2 U/ml adenosine deaminase for 30 minutes at 37'C to remove endogenous adenosine.

[

3 H]DPCPX, [ 3 H]NPC17731, or [ 3 H]CGS-21680 was measured as described by Jarvis et al. See, Jarvis, M.F., et al., Pharmacol. Exptl. Ther. 251, 888-893 (1989), the relevant portion of which is fully incorporated herein by reference. The results of this study are shown in Table 8 and discussed in Example 20 below. 25 Example 13: Pulmonary Function Measurements (Compliance cmh and Resistance) At 4 months of age, the immunized animals were anesthetized and relaxed with 1.5 ml of a mixture of ketamine HCl (35 mg/kg) and acepromazine maleate (1.5 mg/kg) administered intramuscularly. After induction of anesthesia, allergic rabbits were comfortably positioned 30 supine on a soft molded animal board. Salve was applied to the eyes to prevent drying, and they were closed. The animals were then intubated with a 4.0 mm intermediate high-low cuffed Murphy 1 endotracheal tube (Mallinckrodt, Glen Falls, NY), as previously described by Zavala and Rhodes. See, Zavala and Rhodes, Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med. 144: 509-512 96 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 (1973), the relevant portion of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. A polyethylene catheter of OD 2.4 mm (Becton Dickinson, Clay Adams, Parsippany NJ) with an attached thin-walled latex balloon was passed into the esophagus and maintained at the same distance (approximately 16 cm) from the mouth throughout the experiment. The endotracheal 5 tube was attached to a heated Fleisch pneumotach (size 00; DEM Medical, Richmond, VA), and the flow (v) measured using a Validyne differential pressure transducer (Model DP-45-16 1927, Validyne Engineering, Northridge, CA), driven by a Gould carrier amplifier (Model 11 4113, Gould Electronics, Cleveland, OH). An esophageal balloon was attached to one side of the Validyne differential pressure 0 transducer, and the other side was attached to the outflow of the endotracheal tube to obtain transpulmonary pressure (Ptp). The flow was integrated to yield a continuous tidal volume, and the measurements of total lung resistance (R,) and dynamic compliance (Cdyf) were made at isovolumetric and zero flow points. The flow, volume and pressure were recorded on an eight channel Gould 2000 W high-frequency recorder and Cy was calculated using the total volume 5 and the difference in Ptp at zero flow, and . R was calculated as the ratio of Ptp and V at midtidal lung volumes. These calculations were made automatically with the Buxco automated pulmonary mechanics respiratory analyzer (Model 6, Buxco Electronics, Sharon, CT), as previously described by Giles et al. See, Giles et al., Arch. Int. Pharmacodyn. Ther. 194: 213 232 (1971), the relevant portion of which describing these calculations is incorporated in toto 0 hereby by reference. The results obtained upon administration of oligo II on allergic rabbits are shown and discussed in Example 26 below. Example 14: Measurement of Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness (BHR) Each allergic rabbit was administered histamine by aerosol to determine their baseline hyperresponsiveness. Aerosols of either saline or histamine were generated using a DeVilbiss 5 nebulizer (DeVilbiss, Somerset, PA) for 30 seconds and then for 2 minutes at each dose employed. The ultrasonic nebulizer produced aerosol droplets of which 80% were <5 micron in diameter. The histamine aerosol was administered in increasing concentrations (0.156 to 80 mg/ml) and measurements of pulmonary function were made after each dose. The B4R was then determined by calculating the concentration of histamine (mg/ml) required to reduce the 0 Cdyn 50% from baseline (PC 50 Histamine) Example 15: Cardiovascular Effect of Anti-sense Oligo I The measurement of cardiac output and other cardiovascular parameters using Cardiomax' utilizes the principal of thermal dilution in which the change in temperature of the blood exiting the heart after a venous injection of a known volume of cool saline is monitored. 5 A single rapid injection of cool saline was made into the right atrium via cannulation of the 97 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 right jugular vein, and the corresponding changes in temperature of the mixed injectate and blood in the aortic arch were recorded via cannulation of the carotid artery by a temperature sensing miniprobe. Twelve hours after the allergic rabbits had been treated with aerosols of oligo I (EPI 5 2010; SEQ. ID NO: 1) as described in (d) above, the animals were anesthetized with 0.3 ml/kg of 80% Ketamine and 20% Xylazine. This time point coincides with previous data showing efficacy for SEQ. ID NO: 1, as is clearly shown by Nyce & Metzger, (1997), supra, the pertinent disclosure being incorporated in its entirety here by reference. A thermocouple was then inserted into the left carotid artery of each rabbit, and was then advanced 6.5 cm and 10 secured with a silk ligature. The right jugular vein was then cannulated and a length of polyethylene tubing was inserted and secured. A thermodilution curve was then established on a Cardiomaxm II (Columbus Instruments, Ohio) by injecting sterile saline at 20'C to determine the correctness of positioning of the thermocouple probe. After establishing the correctness of the position of the 15 thermocouple, the femoral artery and vein were isolated. The femoral vein was used as a portal for drug injections, and the femoral artery for blood pressure and heart rate measurements. Once constant baseline cardiovascular parameters were established, Cardiomaxm measurements of blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac output, total peripheral resistance, and cardiac contractility were made. 98 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Example 16: Duration of Action of Oligo I (SEQ. ID NO: 1) Eight allergic rabbits received initially increasing log doses of adenosine by means of a nebulizer via an intra-tracheal tube as described in (f) above, beginning with 0.156 mg/ml 5 until compliance was reduced by 50% (PC 50 Adenosine) to establish a baseline. Six of the rabbits then received four 5 mg aerosolized doses of (SEQ. ID NO: 1) as described above. Two rabbits received equivalent amounts of saline vehicle as controls. Beginning 18 hours after the last treatment, the PC 50 Adenosine values were tested again. After this point, the measurements were continued for all animals each day, for up to 10 days. The results of this study are discussed 10 in Example 25 below. Example 17: Reduction of Adenosine A 2 b Receptor Number by Anti-sense Oligo V Sprague Dawley rats were administered 2.0 mg respirable anti-sense oligo V (SEQ ID NO:10) three times over two days using an inhalation chamber as described above. Twelve 15 hours after the last administration, lung parenchymal tissue was dissected and assayed for adenosine A 2 b receptor binding using [311]-NECA as described by Nyce & Metzger (1997), supra. Controls were conducted by administration of equal volumes of saline. The results are significant at p <0.05 using Student's paired t test, and are discussed in Example 28 below. Example 18: Comparison of Oligo I & Corresponding 20 Phosphodiester Oligo VI (SEQ. ID NO:1681) Oligo I (SEQ ID NO:1) countered the effects of adenosine and eliminated sensitivity to it for adenosine amounte up to 20 mg adenosine/5.0 ml (the limit of solubility of adenosine). Oligo VI (SEQ ID NO:1681), the phosphodiester version of the oligonucleotide sequence, was completely ineffective when tested in the same manner. Both compounds have identical 25 sequence, differing only in the presence of phosphorothioate residues in Oligo I (SEQ ID NO:1), and were delivered as an aerosol as described above and in Nyce & Metzger (1997), supra. Significantly different at p<0.001, Student's paired t test. The results are discussed in Example 29 below.. 30 RESULTS OBTAINED FOR ANTI-SENSE OLIGO I (SEQ. ID NO: 1) Example 19: Results of Prior Work The nucleotide sequence and other data for anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO: 1), which is 99 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 specific for the adenosine A, receptor, were provided above. The experimental data showing the effectiveness of oligo I in down regulating the receptor number and activity were also provided above. Further information on the characteristics and activities of anti-sense oligo I is provided 5 in Nyce, J. W. and Metzger, W. J., Nature 385:721 (1997), the relevant parts of which relating to the following results are incorporated in their entireties herein by reference. The Nyce & Metzger (1997) publication provided data showing that the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO: 1): (1) The anti-sense oligo I reduces the number of adenosine A, receptors in the 10 bronchial smooth muscle of allergic rabbits in a dose-dependent manner as may be seen in Table 5 below. (2) Anti-sense Oligo I attenuates adenosine-induced bronchoconstriction and allergen-induced bronchoconstriction. (3) The Oligo I attenuates bronchial hyperresponsiveness as measured by PC 50 15 histamine, a standard measurement to assess bronchial hyperresponsiveness. This result clearly demonstrates anti-inflammatory activity of the anti-sense oligo I as is shown in Table 5 above. (4) As expected, because it was designed to target it, the anti-sense oligo I is totally specific for the adenosine A 1 receptor, and has no effect at all at any dose on either the very 20 closely related adenosine A 2 receptor or the related bradykinin B 2 receptor. This is seen in Table 5 below. (5) In contradistinction to the above effects of the Oligo I, the mismatch control molecules MM2 and MM3 (SEQ. ID NO:1682 and SEQ. ID NO:1683) which have identical base composition and molecular weight but differed from the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ ID NO: 1) by 25 6 and 2 mismatches, respectively. These mismatches, which are the minimum possible while still retaining identical base composition, produced absolutely no effect upon any of the targeted receptors (A 1 , A 2 or B 2 ). These results, along with a complete lack of prior art on the use of anti-sense oligonucleotides, such as oligo I, targeted to the adenosine A receptor, are unexpected results. 30 The showings presented in this patent clearly enable and demonstrate the effectiveness, for their intended use, of the claimed agents and method for treating a disease or condition associated with lung airway, such as bronchoconstriction, inflammation, allergy(ies), and the like. Example 20: Oligo I Significantly Reduces 35 Response to Adenosine Challenge 100 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 The receptor binding experiment is described in Example 12 above, and the results shown in Table 5 below which shows the binding characteristics of the adenosine A-selective ligand [ 3 H]DPCPX and the bradykinin B -selective ligand [ 3 H]NPC 17731 in membranes isolated from airway smooth muscle of A, adenosine receptor and B 2 bradykinin receptor anti-sense- and 5 mismatch-treated allergic rabbits. 101 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Table 5: Binding Characteristics of Three Anti-Sense Oligos Treatment'

Example 21: Dose-response Effect of Oligo I Anti-sense oligo I (SEQ EID NO:1) was found to reduce the effect of adenosine administration to the animal in a dose-dependent manner over the dose range tested as shown in Table 6 below. 102 WO 99/13886 PCTIUS98/19419 Table 6: Dose-Response Effect to Anti-sense Oligo I Total Dose PC5o Adenosine (mg) (mg Adenosme) 5 Anti-sense Oligo 1 0.2 8.32±7.2 2.0 14.0+7.2 20 19.5+0.34 10 AtMM2 oligo (control) 0.2 2.51+0.46 2.0 3.13+ 0.71 20 3.25+ 0.34 15 The above results were studied with the Student's paired t test and found to be statistically different, p=0.05 The oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1), an anti-adenosine A 1 receptor oligo, acts specifically on the adenosine A 1 receptor, but not on the adenosine A 2 receptors. These results stem from the 20 treatment of rabbits with anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO.1) or mismatch control oligo (SEQ. ID NO:1682; A 1 MM2) as described in Example 9 above and in Nyce & Metzger (1997), supra (four doses of 5 mg spaced 8 to 12 hours apart via nebulizer via endotracheal tube), bronchial smooth muscle tissue excised and the number of adenosine A 1 and adenosine A 2 receptors determined as reported in Nyce & Metzger (1997), supra. 25 Example 22: Specificity of Oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) for Target Gene Product Oligo I (SEQ. ID No: 1) is specific for the adenosine A receptor whereas its mismatch controls had no activity. Figure 1 depicts the results obtained from the cross-over experiment described in Example 10 above and in Nyce & Metzger (1997), supra. The two mismatch 30 controls (SEQ. ID NO:1682 and SEQ. ID NO:1683) evidenced no effect on the PC 50 Adenosine value. On the contrary, the administration of anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) showed a seven-fold increase in the PC 50 Adenosine value. The results clearly indicate that the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO: 1) reduces the response (attenuates the sensitivity) to exogenously administered adenosine when compared with a saline control. The results provided in Table 2 above clearly 35 establish that the effect of the anti-sense oligo I is dose dependent (see, column 3 of Table 1). The Oligo I was also shown to be totally specific for the adenosine A 1 receptor, (see, top 3 rows of Table), inducing no activity at either the closely related adenosine A 2 receptor or the bradykinin B 2 receptor (see, lines 8-10 of Table 2 above). In addition, the results shown in Table 2 establish that the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID 103 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 NO:1) decreases sensitivity to adenosine in a dose dependent manner, and that it does this in an anti-sense oligo-dependent manner since neither of two mismatch control oligonucleotides

(A

1 MM2; SEQ. ID NO:1682 and A 1 MM3; SEQ. ID NO:1683) show any effect on PC 50 Adenosine values or on attenuating the number of adenosine A, receptors. 5 Example 23: Effect on Aeroallergen-induced Bronchoconstriction & Inflammation The Oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) was shown to significantly reduce the histamine-induced effect in the rabbit model when compared to the mismatch oligos. The effect of the anti-sense Oligo I (SEQ. ID No: 1) and the mismatch oligos (A 1 MM2, SEQ. ID NO:1682 and AjMM3, SEQ. 10 ID NO:1682) on allergen-induced airway obstruction and bronchial hyperresponsiveness was assessed in allergic rabbits. The effect of the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) on allergen-induced airway obstruction was assessed. As calculated from the area under the plotted curve, the anti-sense oligo I significantly inhibited allergen-induced airway obstruction when compared with the 15 mismatched control (55 %, p <0.05; repeated measures ANOVA, and Tukey's t test). A complete lack of effect was induced by the mismatch oligo A 1 MM2 (Control) on allergen induced airway obstruction. The effect of the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) on allergen-induced BHR was determined as above. As calculated from the PC 50 Histmine value , the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. 20 ID NO:1) significantly inhibited allergen-induced BHR in allergic rabbits when compared to the mismatched control (61 %, p <0.05; repeated measures ANOVA, Tukey's t test). A complete lack of effect of the AIMM mismatch control on allergen-induced BHR was observed. The results indicated that anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO: 1) is effective to protect against 25 aeroallergen-induced bronchoconstriction (house dust mite). In addition, the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) was also found to be a potent inhibitor of dust mite-induced bronchial hyper responsiveness, as shown by its effects upon histamine sensitivity which indicates anti inflammatory activity for anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1). Example 24: Anti-sense Oligo I is Free 30 of Deleterious Side Effects The Oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) was shown to be free of side effects that might be toxic to the recipient. No changes in arterial blood pressure, cardiac output, stroke volume, heart rate, total peripheral resistance or heart contractility (dPdT) were observed following administration of 2.0 or 20 mg oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1). The addition, the results of the measurement of 104 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 cardiac output (CO), stroke volume (SV), mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), total peripheral resistance (TPR), and contractility (dPdT) with a Cardiomax" apparatus (Columbus Instruments, Ohio) were assessed. These results evidenced that oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) has no detrimental effect upon 5 critical cardiovascular parameters. More particularly, this oligo does not cause hypotension. This finding is of particular importance because other phosphorothioate anti-sense oligonucleotides have been shown in the past to induce hypotension in some model systems. Furthermore, the adenosine A, receptor plays an important role in sinoatrial conduction within the heart. Attenuation of the adenosine A, receptor by anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) might 10 be expected to result, therefore, in deleterious extrapulmonary activity in response to the downregulation of the receptor. This is not the case. The anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) does not produce any deleterious intrapulmonary effects and renders the administration of the low doses of the present anti-sense oligo free of unexpected, undesirable side effects. This demonstrates that when oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) is administered directly to the lung, 15 it does not reach the heart in significant quantities to cause deleterious effects. This is in contrast to traditional adenosine receptor antagonists like theophylline which do escape the lung and can cause deleterious, even life-threatening effects outside the lung. Example 25: Long Lasting Effect of Oligo I The Oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) evidenced a long lasting effect as evidenced by the PQ 0 and 20 Resistance values obtained upon its administration prior to adenosine challenge. The duration of the effect was measured for with respect to the PQ 0 of adenosine anti sense oligo I when administered in four equal doses of 5 mg each by means of a nebulizer via an endotracheal tube, as described above. The effect of the agent is significant over days 1 to 8 after administration. When the effect of the anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) had 25 disappeared, the animals were administered saline aerosols (controls), and the PC 50 Adenosine values for all animals were measured again. Saline-treated animals showed base line PC 50 adenosine values (n=6). The duration of the effect (with respect to Resistance) was measured for six allergic rabbits which were administered 20 mg of anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO: 1) as described 30 above, upon airway resistance measured as also described above. The mean calculated duration of effect was 8.3 days for both PC 50 adenosine (p <0.05) and resistance (p <0.05). These results show that anti-sense oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) has an extremely long duration of action, which is completely unexpected. Example 26: Anti-sense Oligo II 105 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Anti-sense oligo II, targeted to a different region of the adenosine A, receptor mRNA, was found to be highly active against the adenosine A 1 -mediated effects. The experiment measured the effect of the administration of anti-sense oligo II (SEQ. ID NO:7) upon compliance and resistance values when 20 mg anti-sense oligo II or saline (control) were administered to 5 two groups of allergic rabbits as described above. Compliance and resistance values were measured following an administration of adenosine or saline as described above in Example 13. The effect of the anti-sense oligo of the invention was different from the control in a statistically significant manner, p<0.05 using paired t-test, compliance; p<0.01 for resistance. 10 The results showed that anti-sense oligo II (SEQ. ID NO:7), which targets the adenosine

A

1 receptor, effectively maintains compliance and reduces resistance upon adenosine challenge. Example 27: Antisense Oligos III and IV Oligos III (SEQ. ID NO:8) and IV (SEQ. ID NO:9) were shown to be in fact specifically targeted to the adenosine A 3 receptor by their effect on reducing inflammation and the number 15 of inflammatory cells present upon separate administration of 20 mg of the anti-sense oligos III (SEQ. ID NO:8) and IV (SEQ. ID NO:9) to allergic rabbits as described above. The number of inflammatory cells was determined in their bronchial lavage fluid 3 hours later by counting at least 100 viable cells per lavage. The effect of anti-sense oligos III (SEQ. ID NO:8) and IV (SEQ. ID NO:9) upon 20 granulocytes, and upon total cells in bronchial lavage were assessed following exposure to dust mite allergen. The results showed that the anti-sense oligo IV (SEQ. LD NO:9) and anti sense oligo III (SEQ. ID NO:8) are very potent anti-inflammatory agents in the asthmatic lung following exposure to dust mite allergen. As is known in the art, granulocytes, especially eosinophils, are the primary inflammatory cells of asthma, and the administration of anti-sense 25 oligos III (SEQ. ID NO:8) and IV (SEQ. LD NO:9) reduced their numbers by 40% and 66%, respectively. Furthermore, anti-sense oligos IV (SEQ. ID NO:9) and III (SEQ. LD NO:8) also reduced the total number of cells in the bronchial lavage fluid by 40% and 80%, respectively. This is also an important indicator of anti-inflammatory activity by the present anti-adenosine

A

3 agents of the invention. Inflammation is known to underlie bronchial hyperresponsiveness 30 and allergen-induced bronchoconstriction in asthma. Both anti-sense oligonucleotides III (SEQ. ID NO:8) and IV (SEQ. ID NO:9), which are targeted to the adenosine A, receptor, are representative of an important new class of anti-inflammatory agents which may be designed to specifically target the lung receptors of each species. Example 28: Anti-sense Oligo V 35 The anti-sense oligo V (SEQ. ID NO:10) , targeted to the adenosine A 2 b adenosine receptor mRNA was shown to be highly effective at countering adenosine A2-mediated effects 1 M WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 and at reducing the number of adenosine A 2 b receptors present to less than half. Example 29: Unexpected Superiority of Substituted over Phosphodiester-residue Oligo I-DS (SEQ. ID NO:1681) 5 Oligos I (SEQ. ID NO:1) and I-DS (SEQ. ID NO:1681) were separately administered to allergic rabbits as described above, and the rabbits were then challenged with adenosine. The phosphodiester oligo I-DS (SEQ. ID NO:1681) was statistically significantly less effective in countering the effect of adenosine whereas oligo I (SEQ. ID NO:1) showed high effectiveness, evidencing a PC 50 Adenos,in of 20 mg. 10 Example 30: Anti-sense Oligo VI For the present work, I designed an additional anti-sense phosphorothioate oligo targeted to the adenosine A, receptor (Oligo VI). This anti-sense oligo was designed for therapy on a selected species as described in the above patent application and is generally specific for that species, unless the segment of the adenosine receptor mRNA of other species elected happens to have a similar sequence. The anti 15 sense oligos were prepared as described below, and tested in vivo in a rabbit model for bronchoconstriction, inflammation and lung allergy, which have breathing difficulties and impeded lung airways, as is the case in ailments such as asthma, as described in the above-identified application. One additional oligo and its effect in a rabbit model was studied and the results of the study are reported and discussed below. The present oligo (anti-sense oligo VI) was selected for this study to 20 complement the data on SEQ ID NO: 1 (Oligo I), which is anti-sense to the adenosine A, receptor mRNA provided in the above-identified patent application. This additional oligo is identified as anti sense Oligo VI, and is targeted to a different region of the adenosine A, receptor mRNA than Oligo I. The design and synthesis of this anti-sense oligo was performed in accordance with the teaching, particularly Example 1, of the above-identified patent application. 25 The anti-sense Oligo VI is a phosphorothioate designed to target the coding region of the rabbit adenosine A, receptor mRNA region +964 to +984 relative to the initiation codon (start site). The Oligo VI was prepared as described in the above-indicated application, and is 20 nucleotides long. The OligoVI is directed to the adenosine A, receptor gene, and has the following sequence. 5'-CGC CGG CGG GTG CGG GCC GG-3' (SEQ. ID NO:_) 30 The phosphorothioate anti-sense Oligo VI having the sequence described in (5) above, was synthesized on an Applied Biosystems Model 396 Oligonucleotide Synthesizer, and purified using NENSORB chromatography (DuPont, DE). TETD (tetraethylthiuram disulfide) was used as the sulfurizing agent during the synthesis. Example 31: Preparation of Allergic Rabbits 35 Neonatal New Zealand white Pasturella-free rabbits were immunized intraperitoneally within 24 hours of birth with 0.5 ml of 312 antigen units/ml house dust mite (D. farinae) extract (Berkeley Biologicals, Berkeley, CA) mixed with 10% kaolin as previously described (Metzger, W. J., in Late Phase Allergic Reactions, Dorsch, W., Ed., CRC Handbook, pp 347-362, CRC Press, Boca Raton, 1 W1 WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 1990; Ali, S. Et al., Am. J. Resp. Crit. Care Med. 149: 908 (1994)). The immunizations were repeated weekly for the first month and then bi-weekly until the animals were 4 months old. These rabbits preferentially produce allergen-specific IgE antibody, typically respond to aeroallergen challenge with both an early and late-phase asthmatic response, and 5 show bronchial hyper responsiveness (BHR). Monthly intraperitoneal administration of allergen (312 units dust mite allergen, as above) continues to stimulate and maintain allergen-specific IgE antibody and BHR. At 4 months of age, sensitized rabbits were prepared for aerosol administration as described by Ali et al. (1994), supra. Example 32: Adenosine Aerosol Preparation 10 An adenosine aerosol (20 mg/ml) was prepared with an ultrasonic nebulizer (Model 646, DeVilbiss, Somerset, PA), which produced aerosol droplets, 80% of which were smaller than 5pm in diameter. Equal volumes of the aerosols were administered directly to the lungs via an intratracheal tube to all three rabbits. The animals were then administered the aerosolized adenosine and Day 1 pre-treatment values 15 for sensitivity to adenosine were calculated as the dose of adenosine causing a 50% loss of compliance

(PC

5 Adenosine). The animals were then administered the aerosolized anti-sense via the intratracheal tube (5 mg/1.0 ml), for 2 minutes, twice daily for 2 days (total dose, 20 mg). Post-treatment PC 50 values were recorded (post-treatment challenge) on the morning of the third day. The results of these studies are provided in (9) below. 20 Example 33: Anti-sense Oligo Formulation Each one of anti-sense oligos were separately solubilized in an aqueous solution and administered as described for anti-sense oligo I in (e) above, in four 5 mg aliquots (20 mg total dose) by means of a nebulizer via endotracheal tube, as described above. Example 34: Oligo VI Reduces Response to Adenosine 25 Challenge as well or Better than Oligo I Oligo VI was tested in three allergic rabbits of the characteristics and readied as described in (7) above and in the above-indicated patent application. Oligo VI targets a section of the coding region of the A, receptor which is different from Oligo I. Both these target sequences were selected randomly from many possible coding region target sequences. 30 The three rabbits were treated identically as previously indicated for Oligo I. Briefly, 5 mg of Oligo VI were nebulized to the rabbits twice per day at 8 hour intervals, for two days. Thereafter, PC 50 adenosine studies were performed on the morning of the third day and compared to pre-treatment PC 5 0 values. This protocol is described in more detail in Nyce and Metzger (Nyce & Metzger, Nature 385: 721 725 (1997)). 35 The results obtained for the three rabbits are shown in Table 1 below. Table 1: PC 50 Adenosine before & after Aerosolized Adenosine Treatment 'Ireatment Time PC 50 Adenosine 40 (mg) 1 AQ WO 99/13886 PCT/US98/19419 Pre-treatment 3.0 ±2.1 Post-treatment >20.0* 5 * maximum achievable dose due to adenosine insolubility in saline All three animals treated with Oligo VI completely eliminated sensitivity to adenosine up to the measurable level of the agent shown in Table 1 above. That is, the administration of the Oligo VI abrogated the adenosine-induced bronchoconstriction in the three allergic rabbits. The actual efficacy of Oligo VI is, therefore, greater than could be measured in the experimental 10 system used. By comparing with the previously submitted results for the Oligo I, it may be seen that the Oligo VI was found to be as effective, or more, than Oligo I. Example 34: Conclusions The work described and results discussed in the examples clearly indicates that all anti 15 sense oligonucleotides designed in accordance with the teachings of the above-identified application were found to be highly effective at countering or reducing effects mediated by the receptors they are targeted to. That is, each and all of the two anti-sense oligos targeting an adenosine A, receptor mRNA, 1 anti-sense oligo targeting an adenosine A 2 b receptor mRNA, and the 2 anti-sense oligos targeting an A 3 receptor mRNA were shown capable of countering 20 the effect of exogenously administered adenosine which is mediated by the specific receptor they are targeted to. The activity of the anti-sense oligos of this invention, moreover, is specific to the target and substitutively fails to inhibit another target. In addition, the results presented also show that the administration of the present agents 25 results in extremely low or non-existent deleterious side effects or toxicity. This represents 100% success in providing agents that are highly effective and specific in the treatment of bronchoconstriction and/or inflammation. This invention is broadly applicable in the same manner to all gene(s) and corresponding mRNAs encoding proteins involved in or associated with airway diseases. 30 A comparison of the phosphodiester and a version of the same oligonucleotide wherein the phosphodiester bonds are substituted with phosphorothioate bonds evidenced an unexpected superiority for the phosphothiorate oligonucleotide over the phosphodiester anti-sense oligo. The foregoing examples are illustrative of the present invention, and are not to be construed as limiting thereof. The invention is defined by the following claims, with 35 equivalents of the claims to be included therein. 1 AO
