PCI Biotech - Fundamentale forhold (PCIB)

Ny artikkel fra Hong Kong som henviser til våre data

Novel technology has been tested, such as photochemical internalization (PCI). PCI is a light-based method and is employed to trigger the endosomal escape of RIP. Saporin linked with a photosensitizer functionalized CPP showed cytotoxicity augmentation in MC28 fibrosarcoma cells [135]. Another study also showed that the cytotoxicity of IT 225.28-saporin was strengthened by using PCI with a photosensitizer disulfonated tetraphenyl chlorin (TPCS2a)

Importantly, drug codelivery in NPs was very efficient in inducing cell mortality also in DTX resistant HeLa-R cells overexpressing P-glycoprotein 1 in which the dose of the chemotherapeutic can be reduced by more than 100 times using DTX/TPCS2a-NPs. Overall, our data demonstrate that the protocol for the preparation of HA-targeted double layer polymeric NPs allows to control the concentration ratio of coloaded drugs and the delivery of the transported drugs for obtaining a highly synergistic interaction combining DTX-chemotherapy and TPCS2a-PDT.

I disse dager hvor vi diskuterer mulig avtale med AZ så er det kanskje greit om vi tar en oppgang hvordan PCI Biotech har prøvd å sikre seg retten til bruk av teknologien.

Oppsummert så har jeg funnet:

11 innvilgede patenter

6 som kan bli godkjent når som helst…

Av de seks som er under vurdering, så stammer 4 fra tidsrommet 2016 til 2018 (publisering) og jeg antar det vil følge med en børsmelding om de går gjennom (ref Per som også venter på avklaring).

https://patents.justia.com/patent/20180050105
https://patents.justia.com/patent/20170143811
https://patents.justia.com/patent/20160206725
https://patents.justia.com/patent/20160040128

De resterende to er fra 2011 og 2009.

La oss tenke oss at vi sitter i AZ management og ser på gamle studier, pågående studier, egne studier samt PCIB sitt patent bibliotek med opsjon på at seks andre kan gå gjennom. I tillegg kan det være flere, siden publisering skjer kun etter 18mnd fra innlevering. Kjøperen, hvem nå enn det blir får tilgang til denne unike patent-poolen samtidig så nærmer vi oss mulig markedstilgang. I tillegg så har vårt unike team vært innvolvert i utrolig mye som enda ikke er patentert / publisert …

La oss ta en enkel sammenlikning - NANO. NANO har kun to patenter som stammer fra 2014/2016. De har ikke flere «publication» av det jeg kan se. Tror Roy har hoppet videre : ).

Nå skal vi ta en titt på hvem som bidrar til PCI Biotech sine siste publiseringer. Oslo universitetssykehus ligger nok som kjent i bakkant og støtter PCIB, men det er en annen som dukker opp på søknadene.

Hvem er Pål?
Pål har en master fra UiO og Phd fra ETH Zurich. Han jobber til daglig som Professor på University of Zurich. I sin Linkedin profil kan vi se at han samtidig er oppført mot UiO. Videre så delte han nylig følgende:

The use of vaccines to induce prolonged, memory immune response has been extremely successful in preventing many, and often deadly, infectious diseases. However, unlike vaccines that are focused on triggering anti-cancer immunity, these vaccines are primarily designed to elicit humoral immune responses. In contrast, therapeutic anti-cancer vaccines aim to stimulate cellular immune responses and must overcome immunological self-tolerance to tumors, as well as immunosuppressive mechanisms in the tumor microenvironment.

In the Shoes of Investors

After information technology, biotechnology is increasingly recognized as the next wave in the knowledge-based economy.

Vi er nå inne i en femte teknologisk revolusjon basert på nanoteknologisk produksjon.

“Anyone, I would imagine, who has tried to create a biotech company knows just how important patents are. You learn this when you’re studying, and again at your first job, and if you haven’t done so before, you realize it the first time you meet potential investors .” (Mads Øvlisen, Chariman of the Board of Directors, Novo Nordsik).

Investors in biotechnology firms are well aware of the centrality of patents in the industry and will generally conduct a thorough due diligence prior to taking the decision to invest in a company. Their main concerns are generally two-fold.

  • Firstly, determining the company’s own IP position. In other words, does it fully own its IP? If not, has it obtained it through a licensing agreement and what are the terms and conditions of such an agreement? Is there likelihood of a dispute over ownership? Have the patents been granted? How wide is the geographical coverage? How broad is the protection and how efficient will they be to keep competitors from copying the product?

  • Secondly, investors will seek to determine whether the company will have freedom to operate, i.e. whether it will be able to commercialize the product without infringing on the IP rights of others. This will be important for investors to minimize risk of investing in a biotech company.

Jeg anser patentporteføljen til PCI Biotech som meget robust og teknologien er bevist på mus og i menneske. I tillegg til patentene så har Kristian Berg og PCIB gjort en formidabel jobb for å «educate» andre på teknologien. La oss ta utgangspunkt i Kristian Berg og Anders Høgset. Kristian tok sin PhD på PCI teknologien og jeg vil anta at av de 265 publikasjoner som han har vært forfatter eller medforfatter på så vil hovedfokuset ligger her (barnet hans). Det sammen er naturlig for Anders Høgset med sine 130 publikasjoner.

https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Kristian_Berg - over 15000 reads og 12586 citations
https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Anders_Hogset - over 10000 reads og 3505 citations.

Hvis vi nå tenker oss at noen ønsker å kjøpe deler eller hele PCIB butikken. Ja, dette firma er overhode ingen «black box», det er bare å lese seg opp.

Takk til Kristian Berg og Anders Høgset, samt resten av PCIB. Dere er unike!

Ref til min siste post over “In the Shoes of Investors
Har hentet ut data fra forskjellige firma som viser antall patenter og publiseringer som er aktive.

  1. PHO Patenter 30 Publiseringer 13

  2. PCIB Patenter 11 Publiseringer 6

  3. BGBIO Patenter 8 Publiseringer 8

  4. Algeta Patenter 4 Publiseringer 4

  5. TRVX Patenter 4 Publiseringer 0

  6. ULTIMO Patenter 2 Publiseringer 0

  7. NANO Patenter 2 Publiseringer 0

Publisering = avventer mulighet for patent

PHO har en miks av alt mulig – mye gammelt. Bergenbio har en fin miks med mye nytt. Algeta ble satt inn som referanse. Når det gjelder de to nederste på lista, så kan man jo si det slik: håper patentene er solide.

Selvfølgelig vil covid19 påvirke rekrutteringen for kliniske studier i flere land…

Men allikevel veldig positivt at de får aktivert sites og at fremgangen fortsetter :slight_smile:

Ingen nye pasienter blir rekruttert nå etter det jeg forstått, men positivt at nye sites står klare når denne “influensaen” er overstått.

Hvis klinikker som har avtale med PCIB ikke har innlagte corona pasienter, men har pasient med gallegangskreft, så vil de vel behandle pasienten. Det tror nå jeg. Men de fleste klinikker har ganske sikkert pasienter med corona.
