 Fool.com: Antisense Making Sense? [Commentary] February 17, 2004
There is promise in the antisense horizon, with the FDA agreeing to review a new drug application for what is potentially the first antisense-based therapy approved for cancer.
Correction: Macugen was erroneously referred to as an "antisense therapy" in the first version of this article.
The best hope for antisense therapies lie in second- and third-generation drug candidates.

 Hospital Practice: Antisense Therapy
First, the antisense therapy must evade breakdown, notably by nucleases, which cleave unprotected nucleic acids into their nucleotide building blocks (also called bases).
For researchers working on antisense therapy, chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) has been a paradigm for such efforts, and perhaps, too, a lightning rod.
This is the idea underlying current hopes that short spans of "antisense" will be genetic therapy for various diseases.

 Isis Pharmaceuticals Antisense Technology
The consistency of the behavior of antisense drugs allows Isis scientists to apply what they learn from the testing of one drug to future drugs, thus reducing the potential for failure in the early stages of development and creating significant competitive advantage for the platform.
Antisense drug discovery is more rational than any other type of drug discovery because:
Isis scientists have performed hundreds of experiments to determine how and where antisense drugs distribute throughout the body.
