Overview

MTOR-targeting antisense oligonucleotides are RNA-based therapeutics designed to selectively bind to and degrade MTOR mRNA, thereby reducing the expression of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) protein. This approach is being investigated for the treatment of mTORopathies, such as focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type II, hemimegalencephaly, and tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), which are characterized by hyperactivation of the mTOR pathway in the brain. By downregulating mTOR expression locally in the brain (e.g., via intrathecal administration), these antisense oligonucleotides aim to suppress spontaneous seizures and ameliorate associated neuropathological symptoms with a potentially improved safety profile compared to systemic mTOR inhibitors like everolimus. A prominent candidate in this class is SVG105, developed by Sovargen in collaboration with Angelini Pharma.
