ARLBOROUGH, Mass., Feb. 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- RXi Pharmaceuticals Corporation (RXII), a biotechnology company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing innovative therapies addressing major unmet medical needs using RNA-targeted technologies, today announced that it has been granted a patent by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for the delivery of double stranded siRNAs (21 to 23 nucleotides in length) across the blood-retina barrier (e.g. topical or systemic delivery) for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration or diabetic retinopathy.
