Engineered Antibodies to Improve Brain Delivery of Oligonucleotide

  • Antibody-based "brain shuttles" can deliver therapeutic oligonucleotides to the brain, but the biophysical properties of payload can negatively affect pharmacokinetics
  • Engineered antibody complexes with additional binders are used to mask the payload
  • These engineered entities demonstrate improved specific targeting in cellular models, and improved PK and brain delivery in animal models
