RNA interference, or RNAi, is a naturally occurring mechanism within cells for selectively silencing specific genes, an ability that could become the basis for a whole new class of therapeutic products. The discovery of RNAi has been heralded by many as a major breakthrough, and the journal Science named RNAi the top scientific achievement of 2002 as well as one of the top ten scientific advances of 2003. Because many diseases are caused by the inappropriate activity of specific genes, the ability to silence such genes selectively through RNAi could provide a means to treat a wide range of human diseases.

LNP intellectual property for use in RNAi therapeutic products using LNP technology.
LNP technology relates to where RNAi therapeutics have the potential to treat a broad number of human diseases by “silencing†disease causing genes. RNAi therapeutics, such as “siRNAs,†require delivery technology to be effective systemically. LNP technology represents the most widely adopted delivery technology for the systemic delivery of RNAi therapeutics. Licensor’s LNP platform is being utilized in multiple clinical trials. LNP technology encapsulates siRNAs with high efficiency in uniform lipid nanoparticles that are effective in delivering RNAi therapeutics to disease sites in numerous preclinical models.
RNAi Product means a product containing, comprised of or based on siRNA, Dicer Substrates, Multivalent RNA, or any derivatives thereof, which are effective in gene function modulation and designed to modulate the function of particular genes or gene products by causing degradation through RNA interference of a Target mRNA to which such siRNAs or siRNA derivatives or moieties are complementary. For greater clarity, an RNAi Product shall not include Antisense.
siRNA means a double-stranded ribonucleic acid (RNA) composition designed to act primarily through an RNA interference mechanism that consists of either (a) two separate oligomers of native or chemically modified RNA that are hybridized to one another along a substantial portion of their lengths, or (b) a single oligomer of native or chemically modified RNA that is hybridized to itself by self-complementary base-pairing along a substantial portion of its length to form a hairpin.
Supplemental Field Product means a product containing, comprised of, or based on Antisense or Gene Therapy.
Intellectual Property means any and all discoveries, inventions, information, knowledge, know-how, trade secrets, designs, practices, methods, uses, compositions of matter, articles of manufacture, protocols, formulas, processes, assays, skills, experience, techniques, data, reports, and results of experimentation and testing and other scientific or technical information, patentable or otherwise, controlled by a party after the Effective Date.
RNAi (RNA interference) is a revolution in biology, representing a breakthrough in understanding how genes are turned on and off in cells, and a completely new approach to drug discovery and development. Its discovery has been heralded as “a major scientific breakthrough that happens once every decade or so,†and represents one of the most promising and rapidly advancing frontiers in biology and drug discovery. RNAi is a natural process of gene silencing that occurs in organisms ranging from plants to mammals.
Supplemental Field means the delivery of (i) single-stranded oligonucleotides, either chemically modified or unmodified, acting through the RNase H mechanism or by or other mechanisms of translational arrest but excluding RNA interference involving RISC (“Antisenseâ€) and (ii) DNA plasmids or messenger RNA (mRNA) either chemically modified or unmodified that are transcribed and/or translated into protein and wherein the pharmacological activity is dependent on expression of the protein (Gene Therapy).

RNA interference, or RNAi, is a naturally occurring mechanism within cells for selectively silencing and regulating specific genes. Since many diseases are caused by the inappropriate activity of specific genes, the ability to silence genes selectively through RNAi could provide a new way to treat a wide range of human diseases. RNAi is induced by small, double-stranded RNA molecules. One method to activate RNAi is with chemically synthesized small interfering RNAs, or siRNAs, which are double-stranded RNAs that are targeted to a specific disease-associated gene. The siRNA molecules are used by the natural RNAi machinery in cells to cause highly targeted gene silencing.
