1. An oligomer conjugate suitable for use in the treatment of a viral disorder, wherein said oligomer conjugate comprises:
a) at least one first oligomer region capable of modulating a target sequence of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) to treat said viral disorder; and
b) a carrier component;
wherein said first oligomer region is 10-20 nucleotides in length;
wherein said carrier component is a asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGP-R) targeting moiety or a cholesterol conjugate moiety; and
wherein said target sequence comprises at least part of a gene or a mRNA encoding HBx (SEQ ID NO: 1) or HBsAg (SEQ ID NO: 2) or a naturally-occurring variant thereof.
