In certain embodiments, the duplex modulates the amount or activity of a target nucleic acid in extra hepatic tissues and/or extra hepatic cells. In certain embodiments, the duplex modulates the amount or activity of a target nucleic acid in hepatic tissues and/or hepatic cells.
Description
- The present application is being filed along with a Sequence Listing in electronic format. The Sequence Listing is provided as a file entitled CORE0137USC1SEQ_ST25.txt, created on Aug. 9, 2021, which is 8 Kb in size. The information in the electronic format of the sequence listing is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- The present disclosure provides duplexes comprising a first oligomeric compound and a second oligomeric compound wherein the second oligomeric compound comprises a conjugate group. In certain embodiments, the duplex modulates the amount or activity of a target nucleic acid in extra hepatic tissues and/or extra hepatic cells. In certain embodiments, the duplex modulates the amount or activity of a target nucleic acid in hepatic tissues and/or hepatic cells.
- The principle behind antisense technology is that an antisense compound hybridizes to a target nucleic acid and modulates the amount, activity, and/or function of the target nucleic acid. For example in certain instances, antisense compounds result in altered transcription or translation of a target. Such modulation of expression can be achieved by, for example, target mRNA degradation or occupancy-based inhibition. An example of modulation of RNA target function by degradation is RNase H-based degradation of the target RNA upon hybridization with a DNA-like antisense compound. Another example of modulation of gene expression by target degradation is RNA interference (RNAi). RNAi refers to antisense-mediated gene silencing through a mechanism that utilizes the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). An additional example of modulation of RNA target function is by an occupancy-based mechanism such as is employed naturally by microRNA. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that regulate the expression of protein-coding RNAs. The binding of an antisense compound to a microRNA prevents that microRNA from binding to its messenger RNA targets, and thus interferes with the function of the microRNA. MicroRNA mimics can enhance native microRNA function. Certain antisense compounds alter splicing of pre-mRNA. Regardless of the specific mechanism, sequence-specificity makes antisense compounds attractive as tools for target validation and gene functionalization, as well as therapeutics to selectively modulate the expression of genes involved in the pathogenesis of diseases.
- Antisense technology is an effective means for modulating the expression of one or more specific gene products and can therefore prove to be uniquely useful in a number of therapeutic, diagnostic, and research applications. Chemically modified nucleosides may be incorporated into antisense compounds to enhance one or more properties, such as nuclease resistance, pharmacokinetics or affinity for a target nucleic acid. In 1998, the antisense compound, Vitravene® (fomivirsen; developed by Isis Pharmaceuticals Inc., Carlsbad, Calif.) was the first antisense drug to achieve marketing clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and is currently a treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV)-induced retinitis in AIDS patients. For another example, an antisense oligonucleotide targeting ApoB, KYNAMRO™, has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as an adjunct treatment to lipid-lowering medications and diet to reduce low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), ApoB, total cholesterol (TC), and non-high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (non HDL-C) in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH).
- New chemical modifications have improved the potency and efficacy of antisense compounds, uncovering the potential for oral delivery as well as enhancing subcutaneous administration, decreasing potential for side effects, and leading to improvements in patient convenience. Chemical modifications increasing potency of antisense compounds allow administration of lower doses, which reduces the potential for toxicity, as well as decreasing overall cost of therapy. Modifications increasing the resistance to degradation result in slower clearance from the body, allowing for less frequent dosing. Different types of chemical modifications can be combined in one compound to further optimize the compound's efficacy. Traditionally, antisense compounds, including modified oligonucleotides, have deomonstrated good functional uptake into liver tissue. However, there is still a need to facilitate uptake and distribution of antisense compounds into other cell types.
- After an oligomeric compound is administered to a subject, different organs, tissues, and cells receive different amounts of the oligomeric compound. The distribution of the oligomeric compound to different organs, tissues, and cells depends on many factors. For example, the degree to which a given oligomeric compound binds to plasma proteins may affect the distribution of a given oligomeric compound to various tissues. In certain embodiments, the degree to which a given oligomeric compound is recognized by certain cell-surface receptors may affect the distribution of a given oligomeric compound to various tissues or cells.
- Oligomeric compounds typically show good distribution to the liver after administration to a subject. However, in certain embodiments a need exists to deliver oligomeric compounds to other tissues within a subject. For example, a need exists to deliver oligomeric compounds to one or more extra-hepatic tissues such as adipose tissue or muscle tissue. In certain embodiments, the present disclosure provides oligomeric compounds comprising a modified oligonucleotide and a conjugate group, wherein the conjugate group enhances delivery of the modified oligonucleotide to one or more extra-hepatic tissues.
- In certain embodiments, the present disclosure provides a duplex comprising a first oligomeric compound and a second oligomeric compound, wherein the second oligomeric compound comprises a modified oligonucleotide and a conjugate group. In certain embodiments, the duplex modulates the amount or activity of a target nucleic acid transcript in an extra-hepatic cell to a greater extent than a duplex having a second oligomeric compound that does not comprise a conjugate.

- B. Certain Modified Internucleoside Linkages
- In certain embodiments, nucleosides of modified oligonucleotides may be linked together using any internucleoside linkage. In certain embodiments, nucleosides of the first modified oligonucleotide may be linked together using any internucleoside linkage. In certain embodiments, nucleosides of the second modified oligonucleotide may be linked together using any internucleoside linkage. The two main classes of internucleoside linking groups are defined by the presence or absence of a phosphorus atom. Representative phosphorus-containing internucleoside linkages include but are not limited to phosphates, which contain a phosphodiester bond (“P═O”) (also referred to as unmodified or naturally occurring linkages), phosphotriesters, methylphosphonates, phosphoramidates, and phosphorothioates (“P=5”), and phosphorodithioates (“HS—P═S”). Representative non-phosphorus containing internucleoside linking groups include but are not limited to methylenemethylimino (—CH2—N(CH3)—O—CH2—), thiodiester, thionocarbamate (—O—C(═O)(NH)—S—); siloxane (—O—SiH2—O—); and N,N′-dimethylhydrazine (—CH2—N(CH3)—N(CH3)—). Modified internucleoside linkages, compared to naturally occurring phosphate linkages, can be used to alter, typically increase, nuclease resistance of the oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, internucleoside linkages having a chiral atom can be prepared as a racemic mixture, or as separate enantiomers. Representative chiral internucleoside linkages include but are not limited to alkylphosphonates and phosphorothioates. Methods of preparation of phosphorous-containing and non-phosphorous-containing internucleoside linkages are well known to those skilled in the art.
- Neutral internucleoside linkages include, without limitation, phosphotriesters, methylphosphonates, MMI (3′-CH2—N(CH3)—O-5′), amide-3 (3′-CH2—C(═O)—N(H)-5′), amide-4 (3′-CH2—N(H)—C(═O)-5′), formacetal (3′-O—CH2—O-5′), methoxypropyl, and thioformacetal (3′-S—CH2—O-5′). Further neutral internucleoside linkages include nonionic linkages comprising siloxane (dialkylsiloxane), carboxylate ester, carboxamide, sulfide, sulfonate ester and amides (See for example: Carbohydrate Modifications in Antisense Research; Y. S. Sanghvi and P. D. Cook, Eds., ACS Symposium Series 580; Chapters 3 and 4, 40-65). Further neutral internucleoside linkages include nonionic linkages comprising mixed N, O, S and CH2 component parts.

Thus, the second modified oligonucleotide may be described by its sugar motif, nucleobase motif and/or internucleoside linkage motif (as used herein, nucleobase motif describes the modifications to the nucleobases independent of the sequence of nucleobases).
- In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides comprise one or more modified nucleoside comprising a modified sugar.

- E. Certain Modified Oligonucleotides
- In certain embodiments, the above modifications (sugar, nucleobase, internucleoside linkage) are incorporated into a modified oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides are characterized by their modification motifs and overall lengths. In certain embodiments, such parameters are each independent of one another. Thus, unless otherwise indicated, each internucleoside linkage of an oligonucleotide having a gapmer sugar motif may be modified or unmodified and may or may not follow the gapmer modification pattern of the sugar modifications. For example, the internucleoside linkages within the wing regions of a sugar gapmer may be the same or different from one another and may be the same or different from the internucleoside linkages of the gap region of the sugar motif. Likewise, such sugar gapmer oligonucleotides may comprise one or more modified nucleobase independent of the gapmer pattern of the sugar modifications. Furthermore, in certain instances, an oligonucleotide is described by an overall length or range and by lengths or length ranges of two or more regions (e.g., a regions of nucleosides having specified sugar modifications), in such circumstances it may be possible to select numbers for each range that result in an oligonucleotide having an overall length falling outside the specified range. In such circumstances, both elements must be satisfied. For example, in certain embodiments, a modified oligonucleotide consists if of 15-20 linked nucleosides and has a sugar motif consisting of three regions, A, B, and C, wherein region A consists of 2-6 linked nucleosides having a specified sugar motif, region B consists of 6-10 linked nucleosides having a specified sugar motif, and region C consists of 2-6 linked nucleosides having a specified sugar motif. Such embodiments do not include modified oligonucleotides where A and C each consist of 6 linked nucleosides and B consists of 10 linked nucleosides (even though those numbers of nucleosides are permitted within the requirements for A, B, and C) because the overall length of such oligonucleotide is 22, which exceeds the upper limit of the overall length of the modified oligonucleotide (20). Herein, if a description of an oligonucleotide is silent with respect to one or more parameter, such parameter is not limited. Thus, a modified oligonucleotide described only as having a gapmer sugar motif without further description may have any length, internucleoside linkage motif, and nucleobase motif. Unless otherwise indicated, all modifications are independent of nucleobase sequence.
- F. Nucleobase Sequence
- In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides (unmodified or modified oligonucleotides) are further described by their nucleobase sequence. In certain embodiments oligonucleotides have a nucleobase sequence that is complementary to a second oligonucleotide or an identified reference nucleic acid, such as a target nucleic acid. In certain such embodiments, a region of an oligonucleotide has a nucleobase sequence that is complementary to a second oligonucleotide or an identified reference nucleic acid, such as a target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, the nucleobase sequence of a region or entire length of an oligonucleotide is at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%, or 100% complementary to the second oligonucleotide or nucleic acid, such as a target nucleic acid.
- II. Certain Oligomeric Compounds
- In certain embodiments, the invention provides oligomeric compounds, which consist of an oligonucleotide (modified or unmodified or a first modified oligonucleotide or a second modified oligonucleotide) and optionally one or more conjugate groups and/or terminal groups. Conjugate groups consist of one or more conjugate moiety and a conjugate linker which links the conjugate moiety to the oligonucleotide. Conjugate groups may be attached to either or both ends of an oligonucleotide and/or at any internal position. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups are attached to the 2′-position of a nucleoside of a modified oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups that are attached to either or both ends of an oligonucleotide are terminal groups. In certain such embodiments, conjugate groups or terminal groups are attached at the 3′ and/or 5′-end of oligonucleotides. In certain such embodiments, conjugate groups (or terminal groups) are attached at the 3′-end of oligonucleotides. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups are attached near the 3′-end of oligonucleotides. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups (or terminal groups) are attached at the 5′-end of oligonucleotides. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups are attached near the 5′-end of oligonucleotides.

In certain embodiments, conjugate groups modify one or more properties of the attached oligonucleotide, including but not limited to pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, stability, binding, absorption, tissue distribution, cellular distribution, cellular uptake, charge and clearance. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups impart a new property on the attached oligonucleotide, e.g., fluorophores or reporter groups that enable detection of the oligonucleotide.

Ther., 1996, 277, 923-937), a tocopherol group (Nishina et al., Molecular Therapy Nucleic Acids, 2015, 4, e220; and Nishina et al., Molecular Therapy, 2008, 16, 734-740), or a GalNAc cluster (e.g., WO2014/179620).

- 2. Conjugate Linkers
- Conjugate moieties are attached to oligonucleotides through conjugate linkers. In certain oligomeric compounds, the conjugate linker is a single chemical bond (i.e., the conjugate moiety is attached directly to an oligonucleotide through a single bond). In certain embodiments, the conjugate linker comprises a chain structure, such as a hydrocarbyl chain, or an oligomer of repeating units such as ethylene glycol, nucleosides, or amino acid units.

In general, a bifunctional linking moiety comprises at least two functional groups. One of the functional groups is selected to bind to a particular site on a parent compound and the other is selected to bind to a conjugate group. Examples of functional groups used in a bifunctional linking moiety include but are not limited to electrophiles for reacting with nucleophilic groups and nucleophiles for reacting with electrophilic groups.

It is typically desirable for linker-nucleosides to be cleaved from the oligomeric compound after it reaches a target tissue. Accordingly, linker-nucleosides are typically linked to one another and to the remainder of the oligomeric compound through cleavable bonds. In certain embodiments, such cleavable bonds are phosphodiester bonds.
- Herein, linker-nucleosides are not considered to be part of the oligonucleotide. Accordingly, in embodiments in which an oligomeric compound comprises an oligonucleotide consisting of a specified number or range of linked nucleosides and/or a specified percent complementarity to a reference nucleic acid and the oligomeric compound also comprises a conjugate group comprising a conjugate linker comprising linker-nucleosides, those linker-nucleosides are not counted toward the length of the oligonucleotide and are not used in determining the percent complementarity of the oligonucleotide for the reference nucleic acid. For example, an oligomeric compound may comprise (1) a modified oligonucleotide consisting of 8-30 nucleosides and (2) a conjugate group comprising 1-10 linker-nucleosides that are contiguous with the nucleosides of the modified oligonucleotide. The total number of contiguous linked nucleosides in such an oligomeric compound is more than 30. Alternatively, an oligomeric compound may comprise a modified oligonucleotide consisting of 8-30 nucleosides and no conjugate group. The total number of contiguous linked nucleosides in such an oligomeric compound is no more than 30. Unless otherwise indicated conjugate linkers comprise no more than 10 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise no more than 5 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise no more than 3 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise no more than 2 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise no more than 1 linker-nucleoside.
- In certain embodiments, it is desirable for a conjugate group to be cleaved from the oligonucleotide. For example, in certain circumstances oligomeric compounds comprising a particular conjugate moiety are better taken up by a particular cell type, but once the oligomeric compound has been taken up, it is desirable that the conjugate group be cleaved to release the unconjugated or parent oligonucleotide. Thus, certain conjugate linkers may comprise one or more cleavable moieties. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is a cleavable bond. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is a group of atoms comprising at least one cleavable bond. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety comprises a group of atoms having one, two, three, four, or more than four cleavable bonds. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is selectively cleaved inside a cell or subcellular compartment, such as a lysosome. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is selectively cleaved by endogenous enzymes, such as nucleases.
- In certain embodiments, a cleavable bond is selected from among: an amide, an ester, an ether, one or both esters of a phosphodiester, a phosphate ester, a carbamate, or a disulfide. In certain embodiments, a cleavable bond is one or both of the esters of a phosphodiester. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety comprises a phosphate or phosphodiester. In certain embodiments, the cleavable moiety is a phosphate linkage between an oligonucleotide and a conjugate moiety or conjugate group.
- In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety comprises or consists of one or more linker-nucleosides. In certain such embodiments, the one or more linker-nucleosides are linked to one another and/or to the remainder of the oligomeric compound through cleavable bonds. In certain embodiments, such cleavable bonds are unmodified phosphodiester bonds. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is 2′-deoxy nucleoside that is attached to either the 3′ or 5′-terminal nucleoside of an oligonucleotide by a phosphate internucleoside linkage and covalently attached to the remainder of the conjugate linker or conjugate moiety by a phosphate or phosphorothioate linkage. In certain such embodiments, the cleavable moiety is 2′-deoxyadenosine.
- III. Certain Antisense Compounds
- In certain embodiments, the present invention provides antisense compounds, which comprise or consist of an oligomeric compound comprising an antisense oliognucleotide, having a nucleobase sequences complementary to that of a target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, antisense compounds are single-stranded. Such single-stranded antisense compounds typically comprise or consist of an oligomeric compound that comprises or consists of a modified oligonucleotide and optionally a conjugate group. In certain embodiments, antisense compounds are double-stranded. Such double-stranded antisense compounds comprise a first oligomeric compound having a region complementary to a target nucleic acid and a second oligomeric compound having a region complementary to the first oligomeric compound. The first oligomeric compound of such double stranded antisense compounds typically comprises or consists of a modified oligonucleotide and optionally a conjugate group. The oligonucleotide of the second oligomeric compound of such double-stranded antisense compound may be modified or unmodified. Either or both oligomeric compounds of a double-stranded antisense compound may comprise a conjugate group. The oligomeric compounds of double-stranded antisense compounds may include non-complementary overhanging nucleosides.
- In certain embodiments, oligomeric compounds of antisense compounds are capable of hybridizing to a target nucleic acid, resulting in at least one antisense activity. In certain embodiments, antisense compounds selectively affect one or more target nucleic acid. Such selective antisense compounds comprises a nucleobase sequence that hybridizes to one or more target nucleic acid, resulting in one or more desired antisense activity and does not hybridize to one or more non-target nucleic acid or does not hybridize to one or more non-target nucleic acid in such a way that results in significant undesired antisense activity.
- In certain antisense activities, hybridization of an antisense compound to a target nucleic acid results in recruitment of a protein that cleaves the target nucleic acid. For example, certain antisense compounds result in RNase H mediated cleavage of the target nucleic acid. RNase H is a cellular endonuclease that cleaves the RNA strand of an RNA:DNA duplex. The DNA in such an RNA:DNA duplex need not be unmodified DNA. In certain embodiments, the invention provides antisense compounds that are sufficiently “DNA-like” to elicit RNase H activity. Further, in certain embodiments, one or more non-DNA-like nucleoside in the gap of a gapmer is tolerated.
- In certain antisense activities, an antisense compound or a portion of an antisense compound is loaded into an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), ultimately resulting in cleavage of the target nucleic acid. For example, certain antisense compounds result in cleavage of the target nucleic acid by Argonaute. Antisense compounds that are loaded into RISC are RNAi compounds. RNAi compounds may be double-stranded (siRNA) or single-stranded (ssRNA).
- In certain embodiments, hybridization of an antisense compound to a target nucleic acid does not result in recruitment of a protein that cleaves that target nucleic acid. In certain such embodiments, hybridization of the antisense compound to the target nucleic acid results in alteration of splicing of the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, hybridization of an antisense compound to a target nucleic acid results in inhibition of a binding interaction between the target nucleic acid and a protein or other nucleic acid. In certain such embodiments, hybridization of an antisense compound to a target nucleic acid results in alteration of translation of the target nucleic acid.
- Antisense activities may be observed directly or indirectly. In certain embodiments, observation or detection of an antisense activity involves observation or detection of a change in an amount of a target nucleic acid or protein encoded by such target nucleic acid, a change in the ratio of splice variants of a nucleic acid or protein, and/or a phenotypic change in a cell or animal.
- IV. Certain Duplexes
- In certain embodiments, the present invention provides duplexes comprising a first oligomeric compound comprising a first modified oligonucleotide and a second oligomeric compound comprising a second oligonucleotide, wherein the first and second modified oligonucleotides comprise regions of complementarity sufficient to form a duplex. In certain such embodiments, the first modified oligonucleotide is complementary to a target nucleic acid. In certain such embodiments, the first modified oligonucleotide is a gapmer as described above. Thus, in such embodiments, the first oligomeric compound is capable of hybridizing to a target nucleic acid and eliciting cleavage of the target nucleic acid by RNase H. In certain such embodiments, the second oligomeric compound improves a property of the first oligomeric compound compared to the property in the absence of the second oligomeric compound. In certain embodiments, that improved property is one or more of: distribution to a target tissue, uptake into a target cell, potency, and efficacy. In certain embodiments, the target tissue is liver (hepatic). In certain embodiments, the target tissue is other than liver (extra-hepatic). In certain embodiments, it is desirable to reduce target in more than one tissue. In certain such embodiments, it is desirable to reduce target in the liver and one or more other tissues. In certain embodiments, it is desirable to reduce target in more than one extra-hepatic tissue.
- In certain embodiments, the first oligonucleotide of a duplex is a gapmer. In certain such embodiments, the wings of the gapmer comprise 2′-MOE modified nucleosides. In certain embodiments, the wings of the gapmer comprise cEt nucleosides. In certain embodiments the wings of the gapmer comprise LNA nucleosides. In certain embodiments, the wings of a gapmer comprise at least one 2′-MOE modified nucleoside and at least one bicyclic nucleoside. In certain such embodiments, each such bicyclic nucleoside is selected from among an LNA nucleoside and a cEt nucleoside. In certain embodiments, the gap constitutes 7-10 2′-deoxynucleosides.
- In certain embodiments, the second oligonucleotide comprises at least one 2′-MOE nucleoside. In certain embodiments, the second oligonucleotide comprises 2′-MOE and 2′-deoxynucleosides. In certain embodiments, the second oligonucleotide has sugar motif of alternating modification types (including no modification). In certain such embodiments, the sugar motif of the second oligonucleotide alternates between 2′-MOE nucleosides and 2′-deoxynucleosides. In certain embodiments, the second oligonucleotide has a sugar motif similar to a gapmer (as described above) except that it may not elicit cleavage of a target nucleic acid. Such gapmer-like motifs have a central region and flanking wing regions. In certain such embodiment, the central region is comprises of 2′-deoxynucleosides and the wing regions are 2′-MOE modified nucleosides. The internucleoside linkages of the second oligonucleotide may be modified or phosphodiester. In certain embodiments, the internucleoside linkages of the second oligonucleotide follow a gapmer-like motif—phosphorothioate wings and phosphdiester in the center. Such internucleoside linkage motif may or may not track the sugar motif. Though duplexes comprising second oligomeric compounds with second oligonucleotides having central regions comprising RNA are shown herein to have enhanced activity (compared to the first oligomeric compound alone and not in a duplex) it is noted that such oligonucleotides comprising RNA are expensive to manufacture and relatively unstable when compared to oligonucleotides that comprise modified nucleosides or DNA nucleosides.
- In certain embodiments, at least one of the first and second oligomeric compounds comprises a conjugate group (as described above). Typically, the second oligomeric compound comprises a conjugate group. The conjugate group may be attached at either end of the oligomeric compound. In certain embodiments, a conjugate group is attached to both ends.
- V. Certain Target Nucleic Acids
- In certain embodiments, antisense compounds comprise or consist of an oligonucleotide comprising a region that is complementary to a target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid is an endogenous RNA molecule. In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid encodes a protein. In certain such embodiments, the target nucleic acid is selected from: an mRNA and a pre-mRNA, including intronic, exonic and untranslated regions. In certain embodiments, the target RNA is an mRNA. In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid is a pre-mRNA. In certain such embodiments, the target region is entirely within an intron.

In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid is a long non-coding RNA. In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid is a non-coding RNA associated with splicing of other pre-mRNAs. In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid is a nuclear-retained non-coding RNA.
- In certain embodiments, antisense compounds described herein are complementary to a target nucleic acid comprising a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). In certain such embodiments, the antisense compound is capable of modulating expression of one allele of the SNP-containing target nucleic acid to a greater or lesser extent than it modulates another allele. In certain embodiments, an antisense compound hybridizes to a (SNP)-containing target nucleic acid at the single-nucleotide polymorphism site.
- In certain embodiments, antisense compounds are at least partially complementary to more than one target nucleic acid. For example, antisense compounds of the present invention may mimic microRNAs, which typically bind to multiple targets.
- A. Complementarity/Mismatches to the Target Nucleic Acid
- In certain embodiments, antisense compounds comprise antisense oligonucleotides that are complementary to the target nucleic acid over the entire length of the oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, such oligonucleotides are 99% complementary to the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, such oligonucleotides are 95% complementary to the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, such oligonucleotides are 90% complementary to the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, such oligonucleotides are 85% complementary to the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, such oligonucleotides are 80% complementary to the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, antisense oligonucleotides are at least 80% complementary to the target nucleic acid over the entire length of the oligonucleotide and comprise a region that is 100% or fully complementary to a target nucleic acid. In certain such embodiments, the region of full complementarity is from 6 to 20 nucleobases in length. In certain such embodiments, the region of full complementarity is from 10 to 18 nucleobases in length. In certain such embodiments, the region of full complementarity is from 18 to 20 nucleobases in length.
- In certain embodiments, the oligomeric compounds of antisense compounds comprise one or more mismatched nucleobases relative to the target nucleic acid. In certain such embodiments, antisense activity against the target is reduced by such mismatch, but activity against a non-target is reduced by a greater amount. Thus, in certain such embodiments selectivity of the antisense compound is improved. In certain embodiments, the mismatch is specifically positioned within an oligonucleotide having a gapmer motif. In certain such embodiments, the mismatch is at position 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 from the 5′-end of the gap region.

- In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions comprise a delivery system. Examples of delivery systems include, but are not limited to, liposomes and emulsions. Certain delivery systems are useful for preparing certain pharmaceutical compositions including those comprising hydrophobic compounds. In certain embodiments, certain organic solvents such as dimethylsulfoxide are used.
- In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions comprise one or more tissue-specific delivery molecules designed to deliver the one or more pharmaceutical agents of the present invention to specific tissues or cell types. For example, in certain embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions include liposomes coated with a tissue-specific antibody.

- Each of the literature and patent publications listed herein is incorporated by reference in its entirety. While certain compounds, compositions and methods described herein have been described with specificity in accordance with certain embodiments, the following examples serve only to illustrate the compounds described herein and are not intended to limit the same. Each of the references, GenBank accession numbers, and the like recited in the present application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- Although the sequence listing accompanying this filing identifies each sequence as either “RNA” or “DNA” as required, in reality, those sequences may be modified with any combination of chemical modifications. One of skill in the art will readily appreciate that such designation as “RNA” or “DNA” to describe modified oligonucleotides is, in certain instances, arbitrary. For example, an oligonucleotide comprising a nucleoside comprising a 2′-OH sugar moiety and a thymine base could be described as a DNA having a modified sugar (2′-OH in place of one 2′-H of DNA) or as an RNA having a modified base (thymine (methylated uracil) in place of a uracil of RNA). Accordingly, nucleic acid sequences provided herein, including, but not limited to those in the sequence listing, are intended to encompass nucleic acids containing any combination of natural or modified RNA and/or DNA, including, but not limited to such nucleic acids having modified nucleobases. By way of further example and without limitation, an oligomeric compound having the nucleobase sequence “ATCGATCG” encompasses any oligomeric compounds having such nucleobase sequence, whether modified or unmodified, including, but not limited to, such compounds comprising RNA bases, such as those having sequence “AUCGAUCG” and those having some DNA bases and some RNA bases such as “AUCGATCG” and oligomeric compounds having other modified nucleobases, such as “ATmCGAUCG,” wherein mC indicates a cytosine base comprising a methyl group at the 5-position.
- Certain compounds described herein (e.g., modified oligonucleotides) have one or more asymmetric center and thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric configurations that may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R) or (S), as a or 13 such as for sugar anomers, or as (D) or (L), such as for amino acids, etc. Included in the compounds provided herein are all such possible isomers, including their racemic and optically pure forms, unless specified otherwise. Likewise, all cis- and trans-isomers and tautomeric forms are also included unless otherwise indicated. Unless otherwise indicated, compounds described herein are intended to include corresponding salt forms.
- The following examples illustrate certain embodiments of the present disclosure and are not limiting. Moreover, where specific embodiments are provided, the inventors have contemplated generic application of those specific embodiments. For example, disclosure of an oligonucleotide having a particular motif provides reasonable support for additional oligonucleotides having the same or similar motif. And, for example, where a particular high-affinity modification appears at a particular position, other high-affinity modifications at the same position are considered suitable, unless otherwise indicated.
- Duplexes, each consisting of two oligomeric compounds, are described in the table below. One oligomeric compound of each duplex comprises an antisense oligonucleotide (Isis No. 626112) that is complementary to both human and mouse Metastasis Associated Lung Adenocarcinoma Transcript 1 (MALAT-1) transcripts. The other oligomeric compound of each duplex comprises an oligonucleotide and a lipophilic conjugate group. The effects of the duplexes on MALAT-1 expression were tested in vivo. Wild type C57bl/6 mice each received an intravenous injection, via the tail vein, of a duplex listed in the table below, Isis No. 626112 alone as a control, or saline vehicle alone. Each injection contained 100 mg/kg of the antisense oligonucleotide (Isis No. 626112). Each treatment group consisted of four mice. Eight days after the injection, the animals were sacrificed. MALAT-1 RNA expression was analyzed in liver, kidney, lung, trigeminal ganglia, frontal cortex, and spinal cord by RT-qPCR and normalized to total RNA using RiboGreen (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Carlsbad, Calif.). The average results for each group are shown below as the percent normalized MALAT-1 RNA levels relative to average results for the vehicle treated animals.
