Indication:
Type 2 Diabetes
An antisense drug that inhibits the production of PTP-1B, a protein that negatively regulates insulin receptor signaling. PTP-1B is responsible for turning off the activated insulin receptor, so reducing PTP-1B enhances insulin activity. We have reported positive Phase 2 data showing that antisense inhibition of PTP-1B improved glucose control in patients with type 2 diabetes. Learn More >
Drug:

An antisense drug designed to inhibit GCCR, a receptor for the hormone, glucacorticoid, that has a variety of effects throughout the body, including promoting liver glucose production and fat storage. Learn More >
Drug:
ISIS-FGFR4Rx
Indication:
Obesity
An antisense drug designed to treat obesity by inhibiting the production of FGFR4, a protein that plays an important role in the regulation of fat burning and body weight. Learn More >
Drug:
ISIS-DGAT2Rx
Indication:
NASH
An antisense drug that inhibits the production of DGAT2 and is to reduce liver fat in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a common and often asymptomatic liver disease that can cause irreversible damage to the liver, and lead to liver cirrhosis and cancer. Learn More >
Drug:
OGX-011
Indication:
Cancer
An antisense drug that inhibits the production of clusterin, a secreted protein that acts as a cell-survival protein and is overexpressed in response to cancer treatments, like chemotherapy, hormone ablation and radiation therapy. Teva and OncoGenex are developing OGX-011 for the treatment of cancer. OGX-011 has shown promising results in combination with currently available chemotherapies in several tumor types. Learn More >
Drug:
LY2181308
Indication:
Cancer
An antisense drug that inhibits the production of survivin, a protein that plays a role in promoting the growth and production of cancer cells. Survivin is one of the most common overexpressed proteins in cancer. LY2181308 is being developed by our partner, Eli Lilly and Company, for the treatment of a variety of cancers. Learn More >
Drug:
ISIS-EIF4ERx
Indication:
Cancer
An antisense drug that inhibits the production of eIF-4E, a protein that is overexpressed in a variety of cancers. eIF-4E is involved in key growth and survival factors that contribute to tumor progression and the spread of cancer. Learn More >
Drug:
OGX-427
Indication:
Cancer
An antisense drug that inhibits the production of Hsp27, a cell-survival protein that is overexpressed in response to many cancer treatments. Our partner, OncoGenex, is developing OGX-427 for the treatment of a variety of cancers. Learn More >
Drug:
ISIS-STAT3Rx
Indication:
Cancer
An antisense drug that inhibits the production of STAT3. STAT3 is a protein involved in the translation of key factors that are critical for tumor cell growth and survival. STAT3 is overactive in a variety of cancers, including ovarian, brain, lung, breast, bone, liver and multiple myeloma. Learn More >
Drug:
ISIS-SOD1Rx
Indication:
ALS
An antisense drug that inhibits the production of SOD1, a protein associated with an inherited, aggressive form of ALS. Learn More >
Drug:
ISIS-TTRRx
Indication:
TTR Amyloidosis
An antisense drug that inhibits the production of TTR, a carrier protein that transports a thyroid hormone and retinol in the blood. In patients with TTR amyloidosis, both the mutant and normal forms of TTR can build up as fibrils in tissue. ISIS-TTRRx inhibits the production of all forms of TTR, offering a unique approach to treating TTR amyloidosis. Learn More >
Drug:
ISIS-SMNRx
Indication:
Spinal Muscular Atrophy
An antisense drug designed to treat spinal muscular atrophy. SMA occurs from a genetic deletion of a gene responsible for producing a protein critical for normal cellular function. ISIS-SMNRx increases the production of this protein by modulating the splicing of a closely related gene, thereby compensating for the underlying genetic defect. Learn More >
Drug:
