Patent Analysis: US Patent 10,337,003 - "Compositions and Methods for Enhancing Wound Healing"

On February 25, 2020, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) granted United States Patent 10,337,003 to Nuvo Research Inc., a Canadian-based biopharmaceutical company. The patented invention is involved in compositions and methods for enhancing wound healing.

Background

Wound healing is a complex biological process involving multiple cellular and molecular mechanisms. Current treatments for wound healing employ various topical creams, dressings, and bandages, but these often lack efficacy and are associated with complications such as infection, scar formation, and prolonged healing times.

Scope of the Patent

US Patent 10,337,003 claims to provide improved compositions and methods for enhancing wound healing. The patented invention utilizes combinations of oxymatrine, a quinolizidine alkaloid derived from the Sophora flavescens plant, and certain lipids to enhance wound healing.

Key components of the patent include:

  • Compositions containing oxymatrine and one or more lipids, such as triglycerides, phospholipids, or cholesterol.
  • Methods for preparing compositions comprising oxymatrine and lipids.
  • Methods for treating wounds using topical applications of the patented compositions.

Claims

The patent claims cover both the composition and method aspects, which include:

  • Claims 1-4: Composition claims outline the various combinations of oxymatrine and lipids, including specific weight ratios.
  • Claims 5-7: Method claims describe the preparation of the compositions and application to wound sites.
  • Claims 8-10: Additional claims cover specifically lipid-rich compositions and methods for wound treatment.

Impact and Relevance

The impact of this patent is significant for the field of wound healing. The combination of oxymatrine and lipids may provide improved outcomes by:

  • Enhancing cellular proliferation and tissue repair.
  • Reducing inflammation and oxidative stress.
  • Promoting collagen synthesis and wound remodeling.

While the patent's inventive concepts show promise, its effectiveness will ultimately depend on in vivo studies and clinical trials demonstrating efficacy and safety.

The Nuvo Research patent (US 10,337,003) contributes to ongoing efforts in wound healing research, focusing on novel treatments that combine traditional botanicals with modern formulation approaches. Though additional clinical data are required to fully assess its clinical potential, this patent serves as a vital stepping stone in the advancement of wound healing technology.
