TKMR, Tekmira Pharmaceuticals Corp.
** TKMR reported that the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) has recently issued two key patents expanding its intellectual property portfolio: one covers its lipid nanoparticle (LNP) delivery technology (U.S. Patent No. 8,058,069), and the other covers the chemical modification of siRNA to mitigate immune stimulation (U.S. Patent No. 8,101,741).
With the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 8,058,069, the USPTO has granted claims covering certain ratios of lipids used in TKMR’s LNP formulations, which have shown to impart increased drug activity and improved tolerability of the formulations in vivo, which result in a significant increase in the therapeutic index as compared to other compositions.
With the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 8,101,741, the USPTO has granted claims covering the chemical modification of siRNA sequences to prevent immune stimulation. This intellectual property is based on research by TKMR’s scientists regarding the stimulation of the innate immune system by nucleic acids, including siRNA.
TKMR is a biopharmaceutical company focused on advancing novel RNAi therapeutics and providing its leading lipid nanoparticle delivery technology to pharmaceutical partners.
RNAi therapeutics have the potential to treat a broad number of human diseases by “silencing” disease causing genes. RNAi therapeutics, such as “siRNAs,” require delivery technology to be effective systemically.
