Patent Filings for New Applications of Sona Gold Nanorods for Targeted Hyperthermia Therapy and Other Applications
FY 2023-24 · 2024-02-19
Summary
Sona Nanotech Inc. has a patented and patent-pending technology for manufacturing biocompatible, toxin-free gold nanorods. The goal of the intellectual property work outlined in this proposal is to enable Sona to file additional patent(s) covering new capabilities of the nanorods. The deliverables of this project will be a patent landscape report that includes patent search details, patent publication level results, patent assignee analysis, subject matter analysis, country analysis, and date analysis. This report will then be used to formulate and refine a strategy for Sona's next patent filings, starting with provisional patent filings to establish a priority date for the inventions disclosed in the application.

Description (French)
Sona Nanotech Inc. dispose d’une technologie brevetée et en instance de brevet pour la fabrication de nanorodes d’or biocompatibles et exempts de toxines. L’objectif du travail sur la propriété intellectuelle décrit dans cette proposition est de permettre à Sona de déposer une ou plusieurs demandes de brevet supplémentaires couvrant de nouvelles capacités des nanorodes. Ce projet aboutira à un rapport sur le paysage des brevets qui comprendra les détails de la recherche de brevets, les résultats au niveau de la publication des brevets, l’analyse des cessionnaires de brevets, l’analyse de l’objet, l’analyse du pays et l’analyse de la date. Ce rapport sera ensuite utilisé pour formuler et affiner une stratégie pour les prochains dépôts de demandes de breves de Sona, en commençant par les dépôts de demandes de brevet provisoires afin d’établir une date de priorité pour les inventions divulguées dans la demande.
