FOREIGN PATENTS ISSUE ON LUNG CANCER TECHNOLOGY
[Albuquerque, New Mexico 10/2/98]. BioModa Inc. announced today that patents covering its worldwide, exclusively licensed technology have issued in Australia, Korea, and the Russian Federation.
Claims were approved that protect BioModa's exclusive right to use TCPP to screen for lung cancer in sputum samples. Other approved claims protect BioModa's exclusive right to use radioactive Copper bound to TCPP for imaging lung cancer in patients, as well as for treating lung cancer in patients. Additional patents are pending in Europe, Asia, and South America.
"These approvals validate and enhance the value of our technology," states BioModa's Chief Technical Officer, Jeff Garwin, M.D., Ph.D. "BioModa is a leader in developing integrated disease management for lung cancer, with a coherent technology to diagnose, image, treat and monitor patients with the disease."
The core technology was licensed in 1995 from the University of California, through the Industrial Partnership Office of the Los Alamos National Laboratory. The license is an exclusive, worldwide license.
"BioModa plans to file additional patent applications within the next 18 months, to enhance the market value of products in development," says Dr. Garwin. |
