Michael Almstetter, CEO and co-founder of Origenis GmbH commented: “These patents significantly strengthen Origenis ́ position in the US as the most important market for developing and commercializing drugs. This protection is key as we develop our small molecule protein kinase inhibitors for a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory diseases.“
Dr. Michael Thormann, CSO and co-founder of Origenis GmbH added: “Together with the respective PET tracers in our programs, we are not only able to facilitate therapeutic development, but also to offer unique and innovative diagnostic and precision medicine approaches on their own.
