"Building a strong intellectual property foundation supports our mission to develop innovative, accessible eye care solutions. We're encouraged by this progress as we continue advancing our technology."

"The formulation work focused on preserving the efficacy and key properties of quaternary chitosan in an ophthalmic solution," said co-inventor Nuria Jimenez, PhD, and co-founder & co-inventor Suchismita Acharya, PhD. "We're pleased that the examiner recognized the stability and antiviral activity data presented in the application, and we look forward to building on this scientific foundation to develop our eyedrop product to help people and expand our patent portfolio."

In its statement of reasons for allowance, the examiner cited evidence of acceptable formulation stability, preserved antiviral activity, and unexpectedly higher antiviral activity at 8- and 24-hour time points. These findings relate to evidence presented during patent examination and do not establish clinical efficacy or regulatory approval.
