Canada Patent Grant

October 29, 2021

We are pleased to announce that PharmNovo AB has been granted a patent for our candidate PN6047 in Canada. Previously patent has been granted in the USA, the EU, Japan, Australia and China. Canada was the last major country remaining for PN6047. Now we have patent protection in all major markets until 2041.

PharmNovo AB is currently performing regulatory toxicology studies with PN6047 – an exciting phase in the development of this biased delta opioid receptor agonist (DOBRA) favouring signalling through G proteins. In preclinical testing, our candidate effectively reduces neuropathic pain without any of the unwanted side effects of conventional opioids.
