Yahoo Finance Defence Accum(TM) Accepted Us Patent to Bolster Its Vaccine Platform Technology IP
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 16, 2023) - Defence Therapeutics Inc. (CSE: DTC) (FSE: DTC) (OTC Pink: DTCFF) ("Defence" or the "Company"), a Canadian biopharmaceuticals company primarily focussed on the development of novel immune-oncology vaccines and drug delivery technologies including Antibody Drug Conjugate ("ADC"), is pleased to announce that that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued a Notice of allowance for their US patent application number 17/738,548.
The allowed US patent application covers the use of components of Defence's proprietary Accum™ technology as a powerful "drop-in" enhancer ingredient to boost immunogenicity and performance of virtually any cell-based or protein subunit vaccine, thereby expanding on Defence's breakthrough vaccine platform technology.
The issuance of this US patent will pave the way for Defence to expand the development of novel, safe, and effective vaccines and therapies in the fields of cancer and infectious diseases. In particular, the ability of Defence's enhancer AccumTM technology, upon simple admixture, to improve activation of antigen-specific CD4 and CD8 T cell responses. This creates opportunities for developing highly potent novel vaccines with Defence's technologies.
"The ability of Defence's enhancer technology to greatly improve antigen loading on MHC molecules of antigen-presenting cells creates additional opportunities for improving upon existing vaccines, such as by reducing antigen dose, thereby lowering manufacturing costs and potentially diminishing patient adverse reactions. Defence's innovation and contribution to scientific knowledge, as well as its expanding clinical and patent portfolio, are a testament to the company's continual and rapid growth," says Mr. Plouffe, the CEO of Defence Therapeutics.
