TECHNICAL FIELD Described are short interfering nucleic acid (siNA) molecules comprising modified nucleotides, compositions, and methods and uses thereof. BACKGROUND RNA interference (RNAi) is a biological response to double-stranded RNA that mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes. The short interfering nucleic acids (siNA), such as siRNA, have been developed for RNAi therapy to treat a variety of diseases. For instance, RNAi therapy has been proposed for the treatment of metabolic diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, and pathogenic infections (See e.g., Rondindone, Biotechniques, 2018, 40(4S), doi.org/10.2144/000112163, Boudreau and Davidson, Curr Top Dev Biol, 2006, 75:73-92, Chalbatani et al., Int J Nanomedicine, 2019, 14:3111-3128, Arbuthnot, Drug News Perspect, 2010, 23(6):341-50, and Chernikov et. al., Front. Pharmacol., 2019, doi.org/10.3389/fphar.2019.00444, each of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety).

Formulations of the present disclosure include those suitable for oral, nasal, topical (including buccal and sublingual), rectal, vaginal and/or parenteral administration. The formulations may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any methods well known in the art of pharmacy. The amount of active ingredient which can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will vary depending upon the host being treated, the particular mode of administration. The amount of active ingredient which can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will generally be that amount of the compound (e.g., siNA molecule) which produces a therapeutic effect. Generally, out of one hundred percent, this amount will range from about 0.1 percent to about ninety-nine percent of active ingredient, preferably from about 5 percent to about 70 percent, most preferably from about 10 percent to about 30 percent. In certain embodiments, a formulation of the present disclosure comprises an excipient selected from the group consisting of cyclodextrins, celluloses, liposomes, micelle forming agents, e.g., bile acids, and polymeric carriers, e.g., polyesters and polyanhydrides; and a compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of the present disclosure. In certain embodiments, an aforementioned formulation renders orally bioavailable a compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of the present disclosure. Methods of preparing these formulations or compositions include the step of bringing into association a compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of the present disclosure with the carrier and, optionally, one or more accessory ingredients. In general, the formulations are prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing into association a compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of the present disclosure with liquid carriers, or finely divided solid carriers, or both, and then, if necessary, shaping the product. Formulations of the disclosure suitable for oral administration may be in the form of capsules, cachets, pills, tablets, lozenges (using a flavored basis, usually sucrose and acacia or tragacanth), powders, granules, or as a solution or a suspension in an aqueous or non-aqueous liquid, or as an oil-in-water or water-in-oil liquid emulsion, or as an elixir or syrup, or as pastilles (using an inert base, such as gelatin and glycerin, or sucrose and acacia) and/or as mouth washes and the like, each containing a predetermined amount of a compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of the present disclosure as an active ingredient. A compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of the present disclosure may also be administered as a bolus, electuary or paste. In solid dosage forms of the disclosure for oral administration (capsules, tablets, pills, dragees, powders, granules, trouches and the like), the active ingredient is mixed with one or more pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers, such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate, and/or any of the following: (1) fillers or extenders, such as starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and/or silicic acid; (2) binders, such as, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, sucrose and/or acacia; (3) humectants, such as glycerol; (4) disintegrating agents, such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate; (5) solution retarding agents, such as paraffin; (6) absorption accelerators, such as quaternary ammonium compounds and surfactants, such as poloxamer and sodium lauryl sulfate; (7) wetting agents, such as, for example, cetyl alcohol, glycerol monostearate, and non-ionic surfactants; (8) absorbents, such as kaolin and bentonite clay; (9) lubricants, such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, zinc stearate, sodium stearate, stearic acid, and mixtures thereof; (10) coloring agents; and (11) controlled release agents such as crospovidone or ethyl cellulose. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the pharmaceutical compositions may also comprise buffering agents. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-shelled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugars, as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like. A tablet may be made by compression or molding, optionally with one or more accessory ingredients. Compressed tablets may be prepared using binder (for example, gelatin or hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose), lubricant, inert diluent, preservative, disintegrant (for example, sodium starch glycolate or cross-linked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose), surface-active or dispersing agent. Molded tablets may be made by molding in a suitable machine a mixture of the powdered compound moistened with an inert liquid diluent. The tablets, and other solid dosage forms of the pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure, such as dragees, capsules, pills and granules, may optionally be scored or prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical-formulating art. They may also be formulated so as to provide slow or controlled release of the active ingredient therein using, for example, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose in varying proportions to provide the desired release profile, other polymer matrices, liposomes and/or microspheres. They may be formulated for rapid release, e.g., freeze-dried. They may be sterilized by, for example, filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved in sterile water, or some other sterile injectable medium immediately before use. These compositions may also optionally contain opacifying agents and may be of a composition that they release the active ingredient(s) only, or preferentially, in a certain portion of the gastrointestinal tract, optionally, in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions which can be used include polymeric substances and waxes. The active ingredient can also be in micro-encapsulated form, if appropriate, with one or more of the above-described excipients. Liquid dosage forms for oral administration of the compounds (e.g., siNA molecules) of the disclosure include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the active ingredient, the liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as, for example, water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers, such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, oils (I particular, cottonseed, groundnut, corn, germ, olive, castor and sesame oils), glycerol, tetrahydrofuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof. Besides inert diluents, the oral compositions can also include adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring, coloring, perfuming and preservative agents. Suspensions, in addition to the active compounds (e.g., siNA molecules), may contain suspending agents as, for example, ethoxylated isostearyl alcohols, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and sorbitan esters, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite, agar-agar and tragacanth, and mixtures thereof. Formulations of the pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure for rectal or vaginal administration may be presented as a suppository, which may be prepared by mixing one or more compounds (e.g., siNA molecules) of the disclosure with one or more suitable nonirritating excipients or carriers comprising, for example, cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol, a suppository wax or a salicylate, and which is solid at room temperature, but liquid at body temperature and, therefore, will melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound (e.g., siNA molecule). Formulations of the present disclosure which are suitable for vaginal administration also include pessaries, tampons, creams, gels, pastes, foams or spray formulations containing such carriers as are known in the art to be appropriate. Dosage forms for the topical or transdermal administration of a compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of this disclosure include powders, sprays, ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, solutions, patches and inhalants. The active compound (e.g., siNA molecule) may be mixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and with any preservatives, buffers, or propellants which may be required. The ointments, pastes, creams and gels may contain, in addition to an active compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of this disclosure, excipients, such as animal and vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffins, starch, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives, polyethylene glycols, silicones, bentonites, silicic acid, talc and zinc oxide, or mixtures thereof. Powders and sprays can contain, in addition to a compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of this disclosure, excipients such as lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicates and polyamide powder, or mixtures of these substances. Sprays can additionally contain customary propellants, such as chlorofluorohydrocarbons and volatile unsubstituted hydrocarbons, such as butane and propane. Transdermal patches have the added advantage of providing controlled delivery of a compound (e.g., siNA molecule) of the present disclosure to the body. Such dosage forms can be made by dissolving or dispersing the compound (e.g., siNA molecule) in the proper medium. Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flux of the compound (e.g., siNA molecule) across the skin. The rate of such flux can be controlled by either providing a rate controlling membrane or dispersing the compound (e.g., siNA molecule) in a polymer matrix or gel. Ophthalmic formulations, eye ointments, powders, solutions and the like, are also contemplated as being within the scope of this disclosure. Pharmaceutical compositions of this disclosure suitable for parenteral administration comprise one or more compounds (e.g., siNA molecules) of the disclosure in combination with one or more pharmaceutically-acceptable sterile isotonic aqueous or nonaqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions or emulsions, or sterile powders which may be reconstituted into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions just prior to use, which may contain sugars, alcohols, antioxidants, buffers, bacteriostats, solutes which render the formulation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient or suspending or thickening agents. Examples of suitable aqueous and nonaqueous carriers which may be employed in the pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils, such as olive oil, and injectable organic esters, such as ethyl oleate. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials, such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions, and by the use of surfactants. These compositions may also contain adjuvants such as preservatives, wetting agents, emulsifying agents and dispersing agents. Prevention of the action of microorganisms upon the subject compounds may be ensured by the inclusion of various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, paraben, chlorobutanol, phenol sorbic acid, and the like. It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents, such as sugars, sodium chloride, and the like into the compositions. In addition, prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form may be brought about by the inclusion of agents which delay absorption such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin. In some cases, in order to prolong the effect of a drug, it is desirable to slow the absorption of the drug from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This may be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material having poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the drug then depends upon its rate of dissolution which, in turn, may depend upon crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally-administered drug form is accomplished by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the subject compounds (e.g., siNA molecules) in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide- polyglycolide. Depending on the ratio of drug to polymer, and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of drug release can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping the drug in liposomes or microemulsions which are compatible with body tissue. When the compounds (e.g., siNA molecules) of the present disclosure are administered as pharmaceuticals, to humans and animals, they can be given per se or as a pharmaceutical composition containing, for example, 0.1 to 99% (more preferably, 10 to 30%) of active ingredient in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

EXAMPLES

[0269] Example 1: siNA Synthesis

[0270] This example describes an exemplary method for synthesizing ds-siNAs, such as the siNAs disclosed in Tables 1-5 (as identified by the ds-siNA ID).

[0271] The 2’-O- Me phosphoramidite 5’-(9-DMT-deoxy Adenosine (NH-Bz), 3’-O -(2- cyanoethyl-N,N-diisopropyl phosphoramidite, 5’-(9-DMT-deoxy Guanosine (NH-ibu), 3’- O-(2-cyanoethyl-N,N-diisopropyl phosphoramidite, 5’-(9-DMT-deoxy Cytosine (NH-Bz), 3’-O-(2-cyanoethyl-N,N-diisopropyl phosphoramidite, 5’-(9-DMT-Uridine 3’-O -(2- cyanoethyl-N,N-diisopropyl phosphoramidite and solid supports were purchased from Chemgenes Corp. MA.

[0272] The 2’-F -5’-<9-DMT-(NH-Bz) Adenosine-3’-O-(2-cyanoethyl-N,N-diisopropyl phosphoramidite, 2’-F -5’-O- DMT-(NH-ibu)- Guanosine, 3’-O -(2-cyanoethyl-N,N- diisopropyl phosphoramidite, 5’-O--DMT-(NH-Bz)- Cytosine, 2’-F-3’-O-(2-cyanoethyl- N,N-diisopropyl phosphoramidite, 5’-O-DMT-Uridine, 2’-F-3’-O-(2-cyanoethyl-N,N- diisopropyl phosphoramidite and solid supports were purchased from Thermo Fischer Milwaukee WI, USA. All the monomers were dried in vacuum desiccator with desiccants (P2O5, RT 24h). The solid supports (CPG) attached to the nucleosides and universal supports was obtained from LGC and Chemgenes. The chemicals and solvents for post synthesis workflow were purchased from commercially available sources like VWR/Sigma and used without any purification or treatment. Solvent (Acetonitrile) and solutions (amidite and activator) were stored over molecular sieves during synthesis. The oligonucleotides were synthesized on a DNA/RNA Synthesizers (Expedite 8909 or ABI-394 or MM-48) using standard oligonucleotide phosphoramidite chemistry starting from the 3′ residue of the oligonucleotide preloaded on CPG support. An extended coupling of 0.1M solution of phosphoramidite in CH 3 CN in the presence of 5-(ethylthio)- 1H-tetrazole activator to a solid bound oligonucleotide followed by standard capping, oxidation and deprotection afforded modified oligonucleotides. The 0.1M I 2 , THF:Pyridine;Water-7:2:1 was used as oxidizing agent while DDTT ((dimethylamino- methylidene) amino)-3H-1,2,4-dithiazaoline-3-thione was used as the sulfur-transfer agent for the synthesis of oligoribonucleotide phosphorothioates. The stepwise coupling efficiency of all modified phosphoramidites was more than 98%. Reagents Detailed Description Deblock Solution 3% Dichloroacetic acid (DCA) in Dichloromethane (DCM) Amidite Concentration 0.1 M in Anhydrous Acetonitrile Activator 0.25 M Ethyl-thio-Tetrazole (ETT) Cap-A solution Acetic anhydride in pyridine/THF Cap-B Solution 16% 1-Methylimidazole in THF Oxidizing Solution 0.02M I 2 , THF: pyridine; water-7:2:1 Sulfurizing Solution 0.2 M DDTT in pyridine/acetonitrile 1:1 Cleavage and Deprotection: Deprotection and cleavage from the solid support was achieved with mixture of ammonia methylamine (1:1, AMA) for 15 min at 65 °C. When the universal linker was used, the deprotection was left for 90 min at 65 o C or solid supports were heated with aqueous ammonia (28%) solution at 55 °C for 8-16 h to deprotect the base labile protecting groups. Quantitation of Crude siNA or Raw Analysis Samples were dissolved in deionized water (1.0mL) and quantitated as follows: Blanking was first performed with water alone (2 ul) on Thermo Scientific TM Nanodrop UV spectrophotometer or BioTek TM Epoch TM plate reader then Oligo sample reading was obtained at 260 nm. The crude material is dried down and stored at -20 o C. Crude HPLC/LC-MS analysis The 0.1 OD of the crude samples were analyzed for crude HPLC and LC-MS analysis. After Confirming the crude LC-MS data then purification step was performed if needed based on the purity. HPLC Purification The unconjugated and GalNac modified oligonucleotides were purified by anion-exchange HPLC. The buffers were 20 mM sodium phosphate in 10 % CH3CN, pH 8.5 (buffer A) and 20 mM sodium phosphate in 10% CH 3 CN, 1.0 M NaBr, pH 8.5 (buffer B). Fractions containing full-length oligonucleotides were pooled. Desalting of Purified SiNA The purified dry siNA was then desalted using Sephadex G-25 M (Amersham Biosciences). The cartridge was conditioned with 10 mL of deionized water thrice. Finally, the purified siNA dissolved thoroughly in 2.5mL RNAse free water was applied to the cartridge with very slow drop wise elution. The salt free siNA was eluted with 3.5 ml deionized water directly into a screw cap vial. Alternatively, some unconjugated siNA was deslated using Pall AcroPrep TM 3K MWCO desalting plates. IEX HPLC and Electrospray LC/MS Analysis Approximately 0.10 OD of siNA is dissolved in water and then pipetted into HPLC autosampler vials for IEX-HPLC and LC/MS analysis. Analytical HPLC and ES LC- MS confirmed the identity and purity of the compounds. Duplex Preparation: Single strand oligonucleotides (Sense and Antisense strands) were annealed (1:1 by molar equivalents, heat at 90 o C for 2 min followed by gradual cooling at room temperature) to give the duplex ds-siNA. The final compounds were analyzed on size exclusion chromatography (SEC). Example 2

The combined organic layers were washed with brine (2x10 mL), dried over anhydrous MgSO 4 . After filtration, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by Prep-TLC (0.5% TEA in CH2Cl2 / MeOH 12:1) to afford final monomer 5 (example 25) (170 mg, 50.60%) as off- white semi-solid.
