Advaxis Prevails in European Patent Court

Jan 14, 2009 - The European Patent Court in Munich, Germany has ruled in favor of Advaxis Incorporated and reversed a patent challenge made by Anza Therapeutics, Inc., formerly Cerus Corp. The Court's ruling is final and can not be appealed.

The challenge was made against elements of a patent filed, and subsequently published in 1994, by Dr. Yvonne Paterson, scientific founder of Advaxis. The patent describes the use of bacteria to deliver an antigen and generate an anti-tumor immune response.

The details can be read here.
I will be posting the whole judgement as soon as i will get it.
