Principal Scientist, Discovery Safety Specialist, AstraZeneca R&D, Sweden

This joint preclinical/clinical session will present novel translational insights of GalNAc-conjugated ASOs as well as novel targeting strategies for increasing productive uptake into cell types that normally are challenging to reach with oligonucleotide therapeutics. These include muscle and immune cells as well as pancreatic islets. The presentations will be followed by a 30 minute panel discussion. Discussion topics include:

  • Main utilities and obstacles of targeted delivery of oligos
  • Specific regulatory considerations to targeting approaches

  • Learning Objective : Recognize the opportunities and challenges of developing novel targeting approaches
