Latest Patents
One of his latest patents involves a pharmaceutical composition that includes the surface and nucleocapsid antigens of the hepatitis B virus. This invention reveals a composition that contains the surface antigen (HBsAg) of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) and the antigen of the nucleocapsid (or core, HBcAg) of the same virus. The HBcAg in this composition contains messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) at a proportion of over 45% of the total amount of ribonucleic acid (RNA) in this antigen. Due to the changes in the constitution of the antigens forming it, this composition is useful for the prevention or treatment of chronic hepatitis B. It also covers the use of this pharmaceutical composition in the production of a drug for immuno-prophylaxis or immunotherapy against HBV infection, and its use to enhance the immune response against an additional antigen that is co-administered with the mixture of these antigens.
