NanoViricides Inc. (NNVC)

[noretreat]

Some expirations begin in 2017, the key one goes away in 2020. After that, little tweaks can get around the subsequent patents, if any are granted. There is an application from 2006 that I don't see an approval for, but I haven't looked everywhere ... I will post what expires earlier as soon as I find it.

TheraCour Pharma and Univ. of Massachusetts, Lowell. [Nonexclusive license from TheraCour Pharma].

Of the patents and technologies licensed, the Company believes that the Company will not be using the intellectual property, compositions of matter, or other aspects described and secured under the US Patent No. US 6,521,736. This patent, the Company believes, discloses prototype materials that served to establish the proof of principles of Dr. Anil Diwan, the Company’s President and co-founder whether such materials were possible to create and whether such materials would indeed be capable of encapsulation of pharmaceutically relevant compounds. The Company believes that the new and novel compositions disclosed in the new patent application, no. PCT/US06/01820, provide the necessary features that enable the development of nanoviricides. The Company believes that no other published literature materials or existing patents are capable of providing all of the necessary features for this development, to the best of our knowledge. However, the Company has no knowledge of the extensive active internal developments at a number of companies in the targeted therapeutics area.
