Isis Reports That ISIS 301012 is Well Tolerated in Patients Treated for Five Or More Months
Date:10/5/2007

d total exposures of approximately five months or more. No new types of adverse events were observed with extended dosing or repeat exposures, no worsening of injection site reactions, and no increase in the frequency or severity of liver transaminase elevations.

John J.P. Kastelein, M.D., Ph.D., Chairman, Department of Vascular Medicine at the Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, also a principal investigator for the studies, commented, "We are particularly pleased to have had such an uneventful experience with patients in the long-term study. Until now, the longest exposures to ISIS 301012 had been three months, and now to have patients dosed for a total of more than six months without any tolerability issues is quite reassuring. Of course, we will all be eager to see more patients and longer exposure times to strengthen our confidence that ISIS 301012 could truly be a transformational new drug for the treatment of refractory high cholesterol."

About ISIS 301012 and Cholesterol

ISIS 301012 is a second-generation antisense drug that reduces the production of apoB-100, a protein critical to the synthesis and transport of "bad" cholesterol and a target that has proved to be undruggable using traditional, small-molecule approaches. Cholesterol can be carried in the bloodstream in a variety of forms, with high-density lipoprotein, or HDL-C, being the good form, and low-density lipoproteins, or LDL-C, and very low-density lipoproteins, or VLDL-C, being bad forms directly involved in heart disease. Collectively, LDL-C, VLDL-C, and other bad forms of cholesterol are referred to as "non-HDL-C." The lowering of non-HDL-C is a key component in the prevention and management of cardiovascular disease. Isis plans to develop ISIS 301012 as the drug of choice for patients who are unable to achieve target cholesterol levels with statins alone or who are intolerant of statins. For future studies, including the registration studies for FH and the
