In the fifth installment of our #DiscoveringOligonucleotides series, we dive into the preclinical development phase. From research in vitro, which lays the groundwork, until validation in vivo, which brings promising therapies to clinical reality, therapeutic oligonucleotides, like all other drugs, need to be studied in depth before being tested in patients. In vitro research: the […]

Since the pioneering approval of Fomivirsen in 1998, the field of oligonucleotides has undergone a remarkable evolution, marking significant milestones in the treatment of various diseases. Despite initial challenges, oligonucleotide antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) have re-emerged strongly, supported by technological innovations, growth in the rare genetic disease market and collaboration between diverse entities. Four therapeutic oligonucleotides […]
