Designing siRNAs for improving their therapeutic applications
Presenter: Dr. Annabelle Biscans (AstraZeneca) Date: January 27th, 2021 Description: Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) have the potential to revolutionize medicine due to their potency, duration of effect, and ability to target previously “undruggable” disease genes. The clinical success of siRNAs is dependent on their efficient delivery to disease tissues. ...
Making medicines out of pre-mRNA splicing modulators
Presenter: Isabel Aznarez, Ph.D. Stoke Therapeutics Date: April 29th, 2021 Description: Splicing is the process that edits precursor-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) to generate the messenger RNA (mRNA) that carries the code from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where the ribosomes will translate it into a protein. The splicing reaction is ...

Time matters! – Why PK/PD is important for oligo development
Presenter: Carl Amilon (AstraZeneca) Date: June 10, 2020 Description: This webinar will give an overview of how incorporating quantitative PK/PD aspects of an oligonucleotide will help you designing more informative experiments and help in translating to a human. We have all struggled with questions around the expectations of a study outcome ...
Safety of Therapeutic Oligonucleotides
Presenter: Patrik Andersson (AstraZeneca) Date: May 13, 2020 Description: Successful therapeutics need to be efficacious and safe. Although oligonucleotide therapeutics act via unique mechanisms, they follow the same principles for safety assessment as other modalities. This webinar will give an overview of these principles and what needs to be considered from ...
