On Monday, Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARWR) released topline results from Part 2 of a Phase 1/2 study of ARO-C3, the company’s investigational RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutic designed to reduce liver production of complement component 3 (C3) as a potential therapy for various complement-mediated diseases.
ARO-C3 is designed to reduce hepatocyte production of complement C3 as a potential treatment for various complement-mediated renal diseases.
The dysregulated activity of the complement system can contribute to tissue injury and the progression of the disease. By silencing C3, investigational ARO-C3 has the potential to treat complement-mediated renal diseases by modulating the activation of the complement cascade.
