Antisense molecules: A new class of drugs [PDF]
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2016 An improved understanding of disease pathogenesis leads to identification of novel therapeutic targets. From a pharmacologic point of view, these can be addressed by small chemical compounds, so-called biologicals (eg, mAbs and recombinant proteins), or by a rather new class of molecule based on the antisense concept.
