Business Wire, May 9, 2005
WAYNE, Pa. -- PharmaStem Therapeutics, Inc. announced today that the United States Patent Office has confirmed key patent claims in two of its pioneering patents. In Office communications, the Patent Office stated that the prior art cited by third parties did not raise a new question of patentability of these claims. These Office communications were prompted by reexamination requests that had been filed with the Patent Office.
"I am gratified that the Patent Office reached an early and positive conclusion regarding the key claims in Patents 6,461,645 and 6,569,427," said Nicholas Didier, CEO and President of PharmaStem. "I am confident that the Patent Office will also confirm all additional claims in these and other PharmaStem patents in the near future."
