METHOD OF CONTROLLING INITIAL DRUG RELEASE OF siRNA FROM SUSTAINED-RELEASE IMPLANTS

摘要

The present invention provides an intraocular implant comprising siRNA combined with a excipient effective to retard the initial release of the siRNA from an implant, wherein said siRNA and excipient is associated with a biocompatible polymer (e.g., a polymeric matrix), configured to release said siRNA into the eye of a patient at therapeutic levels for a time sufficient to treat an ocular condition or disease.
