Oligonucleotide-Based Drug Development: Considerations for Clinical Pharmacology and Immunogenicity.
Journal Article (Journal Article)
The field of oligonucleotide (OGN)-based therapeutics has been growing dramatically in the past decade, providing innovative platforms to develop agents for the treatment of a wide variety of clinical conditions. OGN agents have unique physicochemical properties and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic characteristics. This review considers findings from the literature and information on new molecular entities submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration as OGN-based therapeutics. In addition, the article discusses several challenging issues from the perspective of clinical pharmacology, emphasizing the potential of immunogenicity, the effect of renal impairment on OGN exposure, drug-drug interactions, and the utility of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling. The field of OGN-based therapeutics is in evolution and will benefit from further studies as well as clinical experience to formulate guidelines and promote the development of this class of agents.
