Title:
STABILIZATION OF DOUBLE-STRANDED RNA BY CATIONIC ARTIFICIAL OLIGOSACCHARIDE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/090211
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a method of adjusting the stability of double-stranded RNA, the method comprising (1) a step of introducing a modification into the backbone of double-stranded RNA; and (2) a step of bringing the double-stranded RNA provided by step (1) into contact with a cationic oligosaccharide, e.g., 2,6-diamino-2,6-dideoxy-β-(1→4)-D-galactopyranose tetramer. Also provided is a nucleic acid composition comprising a complex between backbone-modified double-stranded RNA and a cationic oligosaccharide, e.g., 2,6-diamino-2,6-dideoxy-β-(1→4)-D-galactopyranose tetramer, wherein the nucleic acid composition has a pharmaceutical activity equivalent to unmodified double-stranded RNA and has a serum half-life that is at least five times longer than that of the unmodified double-stranded RNA.
