AOC 1001 is targeting DM1, a complex disease with variability from patient to patient and no approved treatments,&#8221; said\u00a0Art Levin, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer.\u00a0&#8220;Our data presented at AAN show that AOC 1001 is highly potent with demonstrated activity in the nucleus and cytoplasm and that single doses of AOC 1001 produced 75% reductions in DMPK mRNA expression that were maintained for months post-dosing. These results further solidify AOC 1001 as a promising program with the potential to be the first therapy for people living with DM1.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Details of the oral presentation are below:<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Title:<\/b>\u00a0&#8220;Optimization of AOC-1001, an antibody-oligonucleotide conjugate targeting the underlying cause of myotonic dystrophy type 1&#8221; <br \/><b>Date:<\/b>\u00a0Sunday, April 18, 2021 at <span class=\"xn-chron\">3:45 p.m. ET<\/span><br \/><b>Session:<\/b>\u00a0Emerging Science <br \/><b>Presenter:<\/b>\u00a0Barbora Malecova, Ph.D., Associate Director, Biology at Avidity<\/p>\n<p>Avidity scientists have demonstrated activity and potency of siRNAs against the dystrophy protein kinase (DMPK) gene in muscle cells derived from patients with DM1. These data showed significant reductions in DMPK mRNA levels in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm. Treatment with Avidity&#8217;s therapeutic agent were able to correct the incorrect splicing in these DM1 cells, moving the splicing signature closer to that of healthy cells and indicating the potential to target the underlying cause of DM1.\u00a0In addition, Avidity scientists have shown the robust, durable activity of AOC 1001 <i>in vivo<\/i> in a broad range of muscles of non-human primates including cardiac muscle.\u00a0 These data demonstrated a 75% reduction in DMPK mRNA levels in muscles following a single dose of AOC 1001. <\/p>\n<p>Avidity&#8217;s abstract is available on the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3131030-1&amp;h=368953516&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aan.com%2Fconferences-community%2Fannual-meeting%2Fabstracts-and-awards%2Femerging-science%2F&amp;a=AAN+meeting+website\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">AAN meeting website<\/a>.

Avidity&#8217;s proprietary AOC platform combines the tissue selectivity of monoclonal antibodies and the precision of oligonucleotide therapies to access previously undruggable tissue and cell types and more effectively target underlying genetic drivers of diseases. Avidity&#8217;s lead product candidate, AOC 1001, is designed to treat myotonic dystrophy type 1, and its other muscle programs are focused on the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy, Pompe disease and muscle atrophy. In addition to its muscle franchise, Avidity has research efforts focused on immune, cardiac and other cell types. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Avidity is headquartered in\u00a0La Jolla, CA.\u00a0For more information about Avidity&#8217;s\u00a0science, pipeline and people, please visit\u00a0<u><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3131030-1&amp;h=407446636&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D3029110-1%26h%3D375654826%26u%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.aviditybiosciences.com%252F%26a%3Dwww.aviditybiosciences.com&amp;a=www.aviditybiosciences.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">www.aviditybiosciences.com<\/a><\/u>\u00a0and engage with Avidity\u00a0on\u00a0<u><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3131030-1&amp;h=3493699844&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D3029110-1%26h%3D3750638112%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.linkedin.com%252Fcompany%252Favidity-biosciences-llc%26a%3DLinkedIn&amp;a=LinkedIn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a><\/u>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Forward-Looking Statements <br \/><\/b>Avidity cautions readers that statements contained in this press release regarding matters that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements.
