drug type

In my opinion Mipomersen is not a RNA interference drug, it mechanism of action is clearly an Antisense one. Mipomersen only targets the mRNA of apoB-100, but by an RNAse H dependend Antisense effect. It should also be mentioned in the article that Mipomersen is a second generation chimeric 20mer oligonucleotide consisting of 2'-MOE-RNA and DNA moieties.

Reads like a press release

The Clinical Development section reads like a press release but the only reference is to a dead URL. It needs trimming and some inline citations. Rod57 (talk) 12:57, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
