Abstract
This invention is directed to an RNA interference (RNAi) agent and the use of that RNAi agent to treat Age-related Macular Degeneration, as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing the RNAi agents of the invention. The RNAi agent is a DNA-directed RNA interference (ddRNAi) agent (being an RNA molecule), together with an expression cassette or construct to express that agent in a cell (including in vivo), for inhibiting, preventing or reducing expression of an AMD associated gene. Preferably that AMD associated gene is one that is associated with wet AMD.
