AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current technologies lack effective methods to target and inhibit the expression of specific genes in immune cells, particularly in the context of somatic mutations associated with proinflammatory diseases and cancer, which are not inherited but occur during an individual's lifetime and can contribute to these conditions.

Method used

Development of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) agents targeting genes expressed by immune cells, such as T cells and B-cells, to inhibit gene expression by forming a double-stranded region with a sense and antisense strand that have specific nucleotide sequences complementary to the mRNA of BTG1, CDKN1B, DUSP2, IGLL5, or KLHL6, thereby reducing the expression of these genes.

Benefits of technology

The dsRNA agents effectively inhibit the expression of target genes, providing therapeutic benefits for proinflammatory diseases and cancer by reducing the impact of somatic mutations, offering a targeted approach to treat these conditions.

BACKGROUND

[0004] Somatic mutations are nucleotide alterations in a genomic DNA sequence (e.g., of a gene) that are acquired during the lifetime of a subject. Unlike germline mutations, somatic mutations are not present in the germline DNA of an individual and are therefore not inherited from a parent like germline polymorphisms. Somatic mutations may occur spontaneously due to e.g., the infidelity of DNA replication occurring at each cell division creating substitutions, deletions, or additions of nucleotides into the DNA of a cell. A somatic mutation may also be caused by environmental factors such as e.g., ultraviolet radiation, chemical exposure, or virialinfections.3. SUMMARY

[0128] The determination of “percent identity” between two sequences (e.g., protein (amino acid sequences) or polynucleotide (nucleic acid sequences)) can be accomplished using a mathematical algorithm. Determinations of identity (as described herein) are independent of nucleotide chemical modifications (e.g., as described herein). For example, (mC) is identical to (C) for the purposes of determining percent identity. A specific, non-limiting example of a mathematical algorithm utilized for the comparison of two sequences is the algorithm of Karlin S & Altschul SF (1990) PNAS 87: 2264-2268, modified as in Karlin S & Altschul SF (1993) PNAS 90: 5873-5877, the entire contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for all purposes. Such an algorithm is incorporated into the NBEAST and XBEAST programs of Altschul SF et al., (1990) J Mol Biol 215: 403, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety for all purposes. BEAST nucleotide searches can be performed with the NBEAST nucleotide program parameters set, e.g., for score=100, wordlength=12 to obtain nucleotide sequences homologous to a nucleic acid molecule described herein. BEAST protein searches can be performed with the XBEAST program parameters set, e.g., to score 50, wordlength=3 to obtain amino acid sequences homologous to a protein molecule described herein. To obtain gapped alignments for comparison purposes, Gapped BEAST can be utilized as described in Altschul SF et al., (1997) Nuc Acids Res 25: 3389-3402, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Alternatively, PSI BLAST can be used to perform an iterated search which detects distant relationships between molecules (Id.). When utilizing BLAST, Gapped BLAST, and PSI Blast programs, the default parameters of the respective programs (e.g., of XBLAST and NBLAST) can be used (see, e.g., National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) on the worldwide web, ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). Another specific, non-limiting example of amathematical algorithm utilized for the comparison of sequences is the algorithm of Myers and Miller, 1988, CABIOS 4:11-17, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Such an algorithm is incorporated in the ALIGN program (version 2.0) which is part of the GCG sequence alignment software package. When utilizing the ALIGN program for comparing amino acid sequences, a PAM 120 weight residue table, a gap length penalty of 12, and a gap penalty of 4 can be used. The percent identity between two sequences can be determined using techniques similar to those described above, with or without allowing gaps. In calculating percent identity, typically only exact matches are counted.

[0131] The terms “nucleic acid molecule,” “polynucleotide,” and “oligonucleotide” are used interchangeably herein and refer to a polymer of DNA or RNA. The nucleic acid molecule can be single- stranded or double-stranded; contain natural, non-natural, or modified nucleotides; and contain a natural, non-natural, or modified intemucleoside linkage, such as a phosphoroamidate linkage or a phosphorothioate linkage, instead of the phosphodiester found between the nucleotides of an unmodified nucleic acid molecule. Nucleic acid molecules include, but are not limited to, all nucleic acid molecules which are obtained by any means available in the art, including, without limitation, recombinant means, e.g., the cloning of nucleic acid molecules from a recombinant library or a cell genome, using ordinary cloning technology and polymerase chain reaction, and the like, and by synthetic means. The skilled artisan will appreciate that, except where otherwise noted, nucleic acid sequences set forth in the instant application will recite thymidine (T) in a representative DNA sequence but where the sequence represents RNA (e.g., mRNA), the thymidines (Ts) would be substituted for uracils (Us). Thus, any of the RNA polynucleotides encoded by a DNA identified by a particular sequence identification number may also comprise the corresponding RNA (e.g., mRNA) sequence encoded by the DNA, where each thymidine (T) of the DNA sequence is substituted with uracil (U).

It is common in the art to refer to shorter polymers of amino acids e.g., approximately 2-50 amino acids) as peptides; and to refer to longer polymers of amino acids (e.g., approximately over 50 amino acids) as polypeptides. However, the terms “peptide” and “polypeptide” and “protein” are used interchangeably herein. In some embodiments, the protein is folded into its three-dimensional structure. Where proteins are contemplated herein, it should be understood that proteins folded into their three-dimensional structure are also provided herein as well as polypeptides in the primary structure. Proteins can include more than one polypeptide (e.g., customarily referred to as the quaternary structure).

The sense strand is often referred to as such with reference to the orientation of the sequence of the sense strand being the same with respect to a target RNA (e.g., mRNA sequence).

[0140] As used herein, the term “somatic mutation” refers to one or more nucleotide alteration (e.g., variation, modification (e.g., variation)) in a genomic DNA sequence (e.g., of a gene) that is acquired during the lifetime of a subject. It is understood in the art that somatic mutations are not present in the germline DNA of an individual and are therefore not inherited from a parent like germline polymorphisms. Somatic mutations may occur spontaneously due to e.g., the infidelity of DNA replication occurring at each cell division creating substitutions, deletions, or additions of nucleotides into the DNA of a cell. A somatic mutation may also be caused by environmental factors such as e.g., ultraviolet radiation, chemical exposure, or virial infections.

[0141] As used herein, the term “subject” includes any animal, such as a human or other animal. In some embodiments, the subject is a vertebrate animal (e.g., mammal, bird, fish, reptile, or amphibian). In some embodiments, the subject is a human.

[0144] As used herein, the term “target nucleic acid sequence” refers to a contiguous portion of the nucleotide sequence of a nucleic acid sequence (e.g., an mRNA molecule formed during the transcription of a target gene (e.g., BTG1)). In some embodiments, the target nucleic acid sequence is an mRNA molecule formed during the transcription of a target gene (e.g., BTG1)). In some embodiments, the target nucleic acid molecule comprises an mRNA that is a product of RNA processing of a primary transcription product. In some embodiments, the target portion of the sequence (e.g., mRNA) will be at least long enough to serve as a substrate for RNAi-directed cleavage at or near that portion of the nucleotide sequence of an mRNA molecule formed during the transcription of a BTG1 gene. In one embodiment, the target sequence is within the protein coding region of BTG1.

[0145] As used herein, the term “therapeutically effective amount” of a therapeutic agent refers to any amount of the therapeutic agent that, when used alone or in combination with another therapeutic agent, improves a disease condition, e.g., protects a subject against the onset of a disease; improves a symptom of disease, e.g., decreases severity of disease symptoms, decreases frequency or duration of disease symptoms, increases disease symptom- free periods; prevents or reduces impairment or disability due to the disease; or promotes disease (or infection) regression. The ability of a therapeutic agent to improve a disease condition can be evaluated using a variety of methods known to the skilled practitioner, such as in human subjects during clinical trials, in animal model systems predictive of efficacy in humans, or by assaying the activity of the RNAagent in in vitro assays.

[0146] As used herein, the terms “treat,” treating,” “treatment,” and the like refer to reducing or ameliorating a disease and / or symptom(s) associated therewith or obtaining a desired pharmacologic and / or physiologic effect. It will be appreciated that, although not precluded, treating a disease does not require that the disease, or symptom(s) associated therewith be completely eliminated. In some embodiments, the effect is therapeutic, i.e., without limitation, the effect partially or completely reduces, diminishes, abrogates, abates, alleviates, decreases the intensity of, or cures a disease and / or adverse symptom attributable to the disease. In some embodiments, the effect is preventative, i.e., the effect protects or prevents an occurrence or reoccurrence of a disease.

[0150] BTG1 is a member of the BTG / Tob family, generally regarded as an anti-proliferative gene family. The BTG / Tob family consists of six protein members; BTG1, BTG2 / Tis21 / PC3, BTG3 / ANA, BTG4 / PC3B, TOB1 / TOB, and TOB2. BTG1 functions in a wide range of cellular activities including, for example, proliferation, apoptosis, and cell growth. BTG1 expression is generally highest in the G0 / G1 phases of the cell cycle and downregulated as cells progress through Gl. BTG1 is expressed both in the nucleus and cytoplasm, and function influenced at least in part by the intracellular localization. In the nuclease BTG1 is known to interact with several nuclear receptors and can function as a coactivator of cell differentiation. See, e.g., Kim, Sang Hyeon et al. “Emerging role of anti-proliferative protein BTG1 and BTG2.” BMB reports vol. 55,8 (2022): 380-388. doi:10.5483 / BMBRep.2022.55.8.092.

[0208] Ranges and lengths intermediate to the above recited ranges and lengths are also contemplated to be part of the disclosure.4.2.1.2 Sense Strand(i) Antisense Strand Complementarity

[0209] As described above, sense strands (e.g., described herein) comprise a region of complementarity that comprises a nucleotide sequence that is at least partially (e.g., substantially, fully) complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand. As such, pairs of sense and antisense strands can hybridize to form a double stranded region (e.g., under conditions in which the pairs will be used).

[0210] In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity is at least substantially complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand. In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity is fully complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand.

[0211] In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity is at least 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or 100% complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand. For example, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity may be at least 70% complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand. The nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity may be at least 75% complementary to the nucleotide sequence of atleast a portion of an antisense strand. The nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity may be at least 80% complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand. The nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity may be at least 85% complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand. The nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity may be at least 90% complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand. The nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity may be at least 95% complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand. In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity is at least 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or 100% complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand. In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity is at least 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or 100% complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least a portion of an antisense strand.

[0212] In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity comprises one or more non-complementary nucleotide mismatches relative to the nucleotide sequence of the at least a portion of an antisense strand. In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity comprises no more than 5 (e.g., 4, 3, 2, 1, or 0) non- complementary nucleotide mismatches relative to the nucleotide sequence of the at least a portion of an antisense strand. In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity comprises no more than 3 (e.g., 2, 1, or 0) non-complementary nucleotide mismatches relative to the nucleotide sequence of the at least a portion of an antisense strand. In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity comprises no more than 2 e.g., 1 or 0) non-complementary nucleotide mismatches relative to the nucleotide sequence of the at least a portion of an antisense strand. In some embodiments, the nucleotide sequence of the region of complementarity comprises no more than 1 (e.g., 0) non-complementary nucleotide mismatches relative to the nucleotide sequence of the at least a portion of an antisense strand.
