| Pharma Equity Group's subsidiary (Reponex Pharmaceuticals A/S) has obtained patent protection in Japan for the treatment of colorectal cancer with RNX-051. October 23, 2024 Company Announcement No. 29 Reponex Pharmaceuticals A/S (Reponex) today announced that the Japan Patent Office has granted a patent for patent application No. 7562413. The patent concerns Reponex's innovative treatment method for eliminating biofilms, which prevent the body's immune system from fighting cancerous tumors in the colon and rectum. Internationally, there is increasing scientific recognition of the link between the presence of biofilms and the development of colorectal cancer. The biofilm has a major negative impact on the immune system's ability to detect and fight cancer cells. Globally, colorectal cancer is the third most common form of cancer, with approximately 2 million new cases annually. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) and The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the global colorectal cancer market was valued at USD 9.4 billion in 2020. Therefore, the need for new innovative treatment methods that can be included in effective cancer treatment is more urgent than ever. The announcement of the granting of a patent covering the Japanese market is a significant milestone for Reponex, which has now obtained patent protection for the RNX-051 treatment method in both Europe and Japan – two of the company's absolute focus markets. Patent protection is seen as a key value driver and a crucial parameter in the future negotiations on the conditions for a license agreement. The patent is valid until 2039. Colorectal cancer is a significant public health problem in Japan, with both incidence and prevalence increasing in recent decades. Colorectal cancer is the most common cancer in Japan, caused by an aging population, lifestyle changes, including changes in dietary habits (increased consumption of red meat and processed foods), as well as limited physical activity. "We are very pleased that the Japan Patent Office has granted a patent for our innovative treatment method covering the Japanese market, which will thus be included as a significant positive parameter in our investment rationale of continued clinical development and our dialogue with future license partners," says Thomas Kaas Selsø, CEO of Pharma Equity Group A/S. | |
