US Patent 9750711: Analysis of Scope and Claims

US Patent 9750711, assigned to Kyowa Kirin International Ltd., is a novel patent in the realm of pharmaceuticals, specifically focusing on a composition comprising a biologically active opioid peptide, primarily consisting of the analgesic peptide kyotorphin. This patent provides unique insights into a significant aspect of opioid research, claiming several practical applications, including the treatment of pain and substance addiction.

Scope and Background

Kyotorphin, a naturally occurring opioid peptide, has long been recognized for its analgesic properties. While research has primarily focused on its therapeutic potential, there is a growing understanding of its advantages over traditional opioid medications. These advantages include lower addictiveness and the potential for reduced opioid-related side effects. Patent 9750711 seeks to capitalize on these findings, proposing a broader scope for the use of kyotorphin and related compounds in both medical treatments and research applications.

Key Claims and Covered Subject Matter

The patent covers a broad range of claims, encompassing compositions, methods of treatment, and products for reducing opioid use disorder. The inventive concepts are centered around three primary subject matters:

  1. Composition for Treating Pain or Substance Use Disorders: The patent claims a novel composition, comprising kyotorphin or a functional analogous peptide, as an effective analgesic or therapeutic agent for addressing pain, particularly chronic pain, as well as substance use disorder. This claim has significant implications for substance abusers who struggle with the debilitating effects of chronic pain-associated withdrawal symptoms.

  2. Polymer Compound Containing Opioid Peptide: The patent includes claims for a polymer compound containing kyotorphin or a polymeric derivative of the peptide. These compounds may possess enhanced therapeutic properties, such as more sustained delivery and increased bioavailability of the peptide.

  3. Preparation of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) for Use in Injectable Forms: The patent claims processes for producing APIs for injectable formulations using kyotorphin or a peptide derivative, optimized for enhanced product delivery and efficacy.

Impact and Future Directions

US Patent 9750711 opens up new avenues for research into the efficacy and potential applications of kyotorphin in treating pain and opioid use disorder. Its key takeaways are:

  • The composition offers a well-tolerated, effective option for pain management and substance use disorder treatment.
  • Targeted delivery systems using the compound could help improve therapeutic outcomes and patient compliance.
  • This novel peptide-based composition could revolutionize our treatment approach to addiction and chronic pain.

This analysis has evaluated the key points and claims within US Patent 9750711, highlighting the critical aspects of this groundbreaking patent in the pharmaceutical field.
