Mongersen (GED-0301) is a specific and orally active SMAD7 antisense oligonucleotide. Mongersen restores TGF-β1 activity leading to inhibition of inflammatory signals. Mongersen can attenuate Crohn’s disease-like experimental colitis in mice[1][2].
Mongersen (125 μg/mouse; p.o. twice a week for 3 weeks) reduces TNBS- or DSS-induced colonic inflammation and colonic fibrosis of mice[2].
