Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

RNA interference is provided for inhibition of HIF1A mRNA expression for treating patients with ocular angiogenesis, particularly for treating retinal edema, diabetic retinopathy, sequela associated with retinal ischemia, posterior segment neovascularization (PSNV), and neovascular glaucoma, and for treating patients at risk of developing such conditions.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A pharmaceutical composition comprising: an interfering RNA that contains one or more chemically modified nucleotides, one or more deoxyribonucleotides, and/or one or more non-phosphodiester linkages, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, wherein the interfering RNA has a sense strand and an antisense strand, wherein each strand is 19-49 nucleotides in length, and wherein the sense strand comprises the RNA sequence corresponding to SEQ ID NO: 11, wherein…
