Annovis Bio Inc. (NYSE:ANVS) ("Annovis" or the "Company"), a late-stage clinical drug platform company pioneering transformative therapies for neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), announced today the issuance of a U.S. patent for methods of treating acute traumatic brain injuries (TBI) with its lead drug candidate, buntanetap.
In 2016, the Company filed a patent covering the treatment of various nerve insults, including TBI, stroke, and nerve and spinal cord injuries. While these claims were granted in Europe and worldwide, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) required the claims to be divided into individual patents for each indication. Annovis Bio has now received U.S. Patent No. 12,042,482, which covers methods for treating TBI and preventing nerve cell death with buntanetap.
