Patent granted in China
We are pleased to announce that PharmNovo AB has been granted a patent for our candidate PN6047 in China. PharmNovo AB is currently entering into 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.
Patent has previously been granted in the US, Europe, Japan and Australia and Canada is now the only remaining major country where the patent application for PN6047 is pending.
