Hybridization-dependent off-target effects are a potential safety concern for both oligonucleotide and gene editing therapeutics. This session will start with updated recommendations from Industry on identification, verification and risk assessment of off-target sites for oligonucleotides. This will be followed by a presentation with concrete examples illustrating how the recommendations could be used. The final presentations will focus on assessment of off-target editing for in vivo gene editing approaches.

Learning Objective : At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
  • Describe the different steps in the recommended approach to identify and evaluate potential off-target effects
  • Compare and contrast off-target assessments for oligonucleotides and gene editing applications
  • Discuss specific considerations for different oligonucleotide and gene editing applications, classes, and delivery systems
