What changed
The EPO published European patent application EP3802618A1 for The University Court of The University of Aberdeen, covering methods and compositions for translocating peptides into eukaryotic cells. The application is classified under IPC classes C07K (peptides), A61K (preparations for medical purposes), and A61P (therapeutic activity). The designated states cover all 31 EEA contracting states across the European Economic Area.
Competitors developing cell translocation technologies, peptide therapeutics, or gene therapy delivery systems should conduct freedom-to-operate analyses to assess potential overlap with the claimed subject matter. Universities and research institutions engaged in similar peptide delivery research may wish to review their own IP portfolios and consider whether cross-licensing or design-around strategies are warranted.
