    Abstract For more than three decades, Ionis Pharmaceutics has pursued the challenging mission of creating a new platform for drug discovery. To overcome the numerous challenges faced required the integration of innovation across many scientific areas, despite many disappointments and failures. The approaches implemented to create and maintain a scientific environment to achieve the mission demanded the rigorous practice of science over three decades. The approaches taken are discussed in this perspective.

    Abstract Patients with ultrarare diseases present unique challenges to the health care systems of developed economies that demand novel approaches, beginning with achieving a diagnosis and concluding with long-term treatment. The challenges derive from numbers. On the one hand, the rarity of the disease phenotypes means that the vast majority of ultrarare patients are never diagnosed, and for the fortunate few who are diagnosed, the journey to a genetic diagnosis is long and perilous. On the other hand, as more human genomes are sequenced, the number of these patients identified is growing logarithmically. Once patients are diagnosed, personalized medicines must be rapidly developed and delivered. Here I define the problems and propose a nonprofit model to meet the needs of some of these patients.

    Abstract The healthcare systems in the developed economies were established primarily to address the more prevalent diseases and have been customized to support the provision of therapeutics to rare patients. However, with the ever-broader implementation of genomic sequencing, it is clear that there are significantly more disease-causing mutations in the human genome than realized and that many mutations are much rarer than current definitions of rare disease populations. Given this, I propose parsing patient populations and defining patient populations more precisely. Nano-rare patients are defined as patients having disease-causing mutations that are unique to a single patient or having a known worldwide prevalence of less than 30. These patient populations present unique challenges to healthcare systems that demand the development of novel models for delivery of therapeutics and novel, more efficient drug discovery technologies, such as antisense technology. The challenges presented by nano-rare patients, a novel non-profit model as a means of providing experimental treatments rather than the traditional commercial model, and progress in establishing a non-profit solution are discussed.

    Abstract Thanks to the advent of genomic sequencing and numerous personalized medicine initiatives in various medical centers, it is now known that there are many patients who have heretofore never been diagnosed who have mutations that are unique to them and them only and others that may be members of an extremely rare mutation (<30 patients in the world). Although each mutation may be unique it is now estimated that there are millions of these unique or vanishingly small patient groups. Patients with diseases caused by ultra-rare mutations present challenges to the health care system that are as unique as their mutation. n-Lorem was founded to take advantage of the antisense technology that we created at Ionis to discover and develop personalized antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) one patient at a time and provide those experimental ASO treatments for free for life. In our first 18 months of operation, we have demonstrated this goal is achievable and worked with the FDA to develop guidance for ASO treatment of patients with ultra-rare diseases. In this article, I define the problem, discuss the ASO solution, and our progress at n-Lorem to date. I then focus on important steps that we have taken to assure that these complex risk/benefit judgments are made with high quality and that each patient receives the highest quality ASO possible. I then describe the processes we have created to assure that the opportunity to learn from each patient and our aggregate experience are maximized and shared with all stakeholders.

    Abstract Single-stranded phosphorothioate oligonucleotides (PS-oligos) can activate TLR9, leading to an innate immune response. This can occur with PS-oligos containing unmethylated CpG sites, the canonical motif, or PS-oligos that do not contain those motifs (non-CpG). Structural evidence shows that TLR9 contains two PS-oligo binding sites, and recent data suggest that synergistic cooperative activation of TLR9 can be achieved by adding two separate PS-oligos to cells, each engaging with a separate site on TLR9 to enhance TLR9 activation as a pair. Here, we demonstrate and characterize this cooperativity phenomenon using PS-oligos in human cell lines, and we introduce several novel PS-oligo pairs (CpG and non-CpG pairs) that show cooperative activation. Indeed, we find that cooperative PS-oligos likely bind at different sites on TLR9. Interestingly, we find that PS-oligos that generate little TLR9 activation on their own can prime TLR9 to be activated by other PS-oligos. Finally, we determine that previous models of TLR9 activation cannot be used to fully explain data from systems using human TLR9 and PS-oligos. Overall, we reveal new details of TLR9 activation, but we also find that more work needs to be done to determine where certain PS-oligos are binding to TLR9.

    Abstract While rare, some gapmer phosphorothioate (PS) antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) can induce a noncanonical TLR9-dependent innate immune response. In this study, we performed systematic analyses of the roles of PS ASO backbone chemistry, 2' modifications, and sequence in PS ASO induced TLR9 signaling. We found that each of these factors can contribute to altering PS ASO induced TLR9 signaling, and in some cases the effects are quite dramatic. We also found that the positioning (5' vs. 3') of a particular backbone or 2' modification within a PS ASO can affect its TLR9 signaling. Interestingly, medicinal chemical strategies that decrease TLR9 signaling for one sequence can have opposing effects on another sequence. Our results demonstrate that TLR9 signaling is highly PS ASO sequence dependent, the mechanism of which remains unknown. Despite this, we determined that placement of two mesyl phosphoramidate linkages within the PS ASO gap is the most promising strategy to mitigate PS ASO dependent TLR9 activation to enhance the therapeutic index and, therefore, further streamline PS ASO drug development.
