Patent 11873490 was granted and assigned to Stoke Therapeutics on January, 2024 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Alternative splicing events in SCN1A gene can lead to non-productive mRNA transcripts which in turn can lead to aberrant protein expression, and therapeutic agents which can target the alternative splicing events in SCN1A gene can modulate the expression level of functional proteins in Dravet Syndrome patients and/or inhibit aberrant protein expression. Such therapeutic agents can be used to treat a condition caused by SCN1A, SCN8A or SCN5A protein deficiency.
