Imugene Limited received a grant for Oncolytic Virotherapy CF33

Apr 04, 2024

Imugene Limited (ASX: IMU) announced that it has received a Grant from the Chinese Patent Office for its oncolytic virotherapy CF33. The company had earlier received grants in Japan and South Korea. The granted claims protect the company’s composition method and use of its licensed oncolytic virotherapy CF33, including VAXINIA and CHECKvacc, until 2037. CF33 is a chimeric vaccinia poxvirus that selectively kills tumor cells and activates the immune system against cancer cells, potentially improving clinical response and survival.

The patent titled "CHIMERIC POXVIRUS COMPOSITION AND USES THEREOF" protects Imugene's technology invented by Professor Yuman Fong, Chair of Sangiacomo Family Chair in Surgical Oncology at City of Hope, who is a noted expert in the oncolytic virus field. Receiving patent grants for the CF33 family of oncolytic viruses is a significant milestone that marks a crucial step forward, particularly given that China, Japan, and South Korea are the largest healthcare markets in Asia.
