Overview

RRM2 siRNA refers to a class of RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutics designed to silence the expression of the ribonucleotide reductase regulatory subunit M2 (RRM2). RRM2 is a rate-limiting enzyme in the production of deoxyribonucleotide triphosphates (dNTPs), which are essential for DNA synthesis and repair. Because RRM2 is frequently overexpressed in various cancers and is associated with poor prognosis and treatment resistance, it is a significant target for oncology. The most prominent clinical-stage candidate in this category was CALAA-01, developed by Calando Pharmaceuticals, which utilized a cyclodextrin-based nanoparticle delivery system. While CALAA-01 demonstrated the feasibility of systemic siRNA delivery in humans during Phase I trials, the development of RRM2-targeted siRNAs continues primarily in research settings, exploring their potential as radiosensitizers and chemosensitizers in indications such as glioblastoma, pancreatic cancer, and solid tumors.
