Oryzon (BME: ORY) strengthens iadademstat patent portfolio
Published by Arron Aatkar, PhD

Oryzon Genomics has announced the receipt of a ‘Decision to grant’ from the Japanese Patent Office for its patent application ‘Combinations of iadademstat for cancer therapy’. This covers the use of iadademstat in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors such as atezolizumab and durvalumab in small cell lung cancer, an indication that Oryzon is pursuing in active clinical trials. Once granted, this patent will remain in place until at least 2040, excluding any other potential patent term extensions. Management noted that it has secured corresponding patents in Europe, Japan, Australia and Russia, with additional applications pending in other key regions.
