Kandimalla, a a, Nicola La Monica, and Sudhir Agrawal Idera Pharmaceuticals, Inc, 167 Sidney Street, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA Poster Board Number: P1537 Session: Novel and Cellular Approaches to Autoimmunity Date and Time: May 6, 2012 from 2:30 PM to 3:30 PM Location: Exhibit Hall (Hynes Convention Center) IMMUNOLOGY 2012, May 4-8, 2012 Boston, Massachusetts

2 Introduction Tlllik Toll-like Receptosr (TLRs) 7, 8 and 9 can recognize endogenous immune complexes containing self-rna and -DNA, respectively. In many autoimmune diseases, TLR7- and 9-mediated inflammation induced by immune complexes leads to maintenance and progression of disease. Activation of TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9 in pdc and mdc through the interaction of these receptors with the antimicrobial peptide LL37 complexed with self-rna or DNA contributes to psoriasis development 12 1,2. Therefore, inhibition of TLRs 7, 8 and 9 through the use of a TLR antagonist could provide therapeutic effect in this autoimmune disease. We have identified a first-in-class DNA-based antagonist of TLR7, 8, and 9, referred to as IMO IMO-8400 inhibitstlr7- and 9-mediated immune responses in mice and TLR7-, 8- and 9-mediated immune responses in human cell-based assays and in non-human primates. In the present study, we have evaluated IMO-8400 as a therapeutic agent in IL-23- and LL-37-induced psoriasis models in mice. 1 Lande R, et al., Plasmacytoid dendritic cells sense self-dna coupled with antimicrobial peptide.
