Vistagen has expanded its global intellectual property (IP) portfolio with the receipt of multiple new patents for its PH80, a neuroactive pherine nasal spray developed for the treatment of migraine.
The company has previously received patents in the US and from the European Patent Office.
The patents are expected to be in force until 2040, subject to extensions.
The new patents have been granted by IP Australia, the Hong Kong Intellectual Property Department, the Japan Patent Office and the Mexican Institute of Industrial Property.
In Australia, the company’s PH80 secured a Notice of Allowance. It obtained Patent No 40068177 in Hongkong, and Patent No 7476229 in Japan. PH80 also secured notice of allowance in Mexico.
PH80 has a unique mechanism of action that targets neurocircuitry without requiring systemic absorption or direct neuronal activity in the brain.
