Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to lipid formulated double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) targeting a transthyretin (TTR) gene, and methods of using the dsRNA to inhibit expression of TTR.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

I claim: 1. A method for reducing a TTR amyloid deposit by >90% in a subject having the TTR amyloid deposit, comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a composition comprising a TTR dsRNA and determining TTR amyloid deposition in the subject, wherein: the TTR dsRNA comprises a sense strand and an antisense strand, the antisense strand consisting of SEQ ID NO:1010 and the sense strand consisting of SEQ ID NO:1009; the effective amount is 0.01-30 mg/kg TTR dsRNA;…
