Abstract

The present invention relates to RNAi agents, e.g., double stranded RNA (dsRNA) agents, targeting the apolipoprotein C3 gene (APOC3). The invention also relates to methods of using such RNAi agents to inhibit expression of an APOC3 gene and to methods of preventing and treating an APOC3-associated disorder, e.g., hypertriglyceridemia, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, polycystic ovary syndrome, kidney disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (insulin resistance), hypertension, artherosclerosis and pancreatitis.
