I think it’s a bit of a stretch to suggest that PYC has no granted patents under its current or previous name!
Firstly, with respect to PYC’s more recent work on CPP+PMO antisense therapies, there are no less than 12 provisional patent applications filed since August last year. In my view, that’s an absolutely stellar effort. Obviously, they may not all proceed past provisional. But, just as obviously, they can’t have been granted yet, as they are still at provisional stage.
With respect to Phylogica, it had multiple patents granted.
US20140141452 - METHOD OF DETERMINING, IDENTIFYING OR ISOLATING CELL-PENETRATING PEPTIDES Granted 2018
US20140128268 - METHODS OF CONSTRUCTING AND SCREENING LIBRARIES OF PEPTIDE STRUCTURES Granted 2017
US20100166835 - COMPOSITIONS AND USES THEREOF FOR THE TREATMENT OF WOUNDS Granted 2015
CA2568644 - PEPTIDE MODULATORS OF CELLULAR PHENOTYPE AND BI-NUCLEIC ACID FRAGMENT LIBRARY Granted 2015
US20110053831 - COMPOSITIONS AND USES THEREOF FOR THE TREATMENT OF ACUTE RESPIRATORY DISTRESS SYNDROME (ARDS) AND CLINICAL DISORDERS ASSOCIATED WITH THEREWITH Granted 2014
DK2230303 - ISOLERING AFBIOLOGISKE MODULATORER FRA BIODIVERSE GENFRAGMENT-BIBLIOTEKER Granted 2013

US20100190698 - NEUROPROTECTIVE PEPTIDE INHIBITORS OF AP-1 SIGNALING AND USES THEREFOR Granted 2011
US20070031832 - METHODS OF CONSTRUCTING BIODIVERSE GENE FRAGMENT LIBRARIES AND BIOLOGICAL MODULATORS ISOLATED THEREFROM Granted 2010
US20030215846 - METHODS OF CONSTRUCTING AND SCREENING DIVERSE EXPRESSION LIBRARIES Granted 2007
US6994982 - ISOLATING BIOLOGICAL MODULATORS FROM BIODIVERSE GENE FRAGMENT LIBRARIES Granted 2006
NZ515329 - ISOLATING BIOLOGICAL MODULATORS FROM BIODIVERSE GENE FRAGMENT LIBRARIES Granted 2004
Finally, I think one should also take into account Sue Fletcher’s patent record with respect to antisense molecules and exon skipping. Sue Fletcher is named as an inventor on 26 patents granted between 2010 and 2016.
