Amondys 45
casimersen · DMD exon 45 (PMO)Adult male mouse and cynomolgus monkey; juvenile male rat
Tegsedi: which tox species, and why?
inotersen · TTR (ASO)
Species
Mouse, rat and cynomolgus monkey; monkey the only pharmacologically relevant species
“Inotersen is pharmacologically active in cynomolgus monkey but not rodent or rabbit.”
Why that species
Target sequence conserved in monkey; 8 mismatches in rodents and 4 in rabbit
“The target sequence of inotersen is conserved between monkeys and humans, but contains 8 mismatches in rodents and 4 mismatches in rabbits.”
Surrogate molecule
Yes: mouse (ISIS 401724) and rat (ISIS 594799) TTR-specific surrogate ASOs in tox, repro and carcinogenicity studies
“For this reason, mouse- and rat-specific analogues of inotersen were included in the toxicology evaluations in order to distinguish toxicity associated with reduction of the target (TTR) from toxicities related to the chemistry of the oligonucleotide”
