BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Havah Therapeutics today, announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has granted a new patent (US Patent No. 12,128,055) for its innovative T+Ai combination therapy—a novel composition of testosterone and anastrozole in a long-acting, slow-release subcutaneous implant.
“Our new patent for T+Ai is a critical milestone as we advance through the ongoing RECAST DCIS Phase 2 trial,” said Matthew Brewer, CEO of Havah Therapeutics. “With a sustained-release profile that shows significant therapeutic promise based on our previous clinical data, we are one step closer to bringing this innovative product to patients.”
The newly granted patent for T+Ai further strengthens Havah Therapeutics’ intellectual property portfolio, securing protection for its innovative subcutaneous extended-release therapy. T+Ai was developed to provide a long-term, safe, and well-tolerated solution for hormonal modulation with a particular focus on breast cancer prevention and treatment. This unique formulation of testosterone and anastrozole is designed to address critical needs in oncology, offering potential in the early treatment of estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) cancers to reduce the risk of developing resistance to hormonal therapies.
Currently in a Phase 2 platform study, T+Ai’s patented properties include rapid early induction of testosterone conversion to dihydrotestosterone within tissue, potentially enhancing anti-proliferative and anti-cancer effects, especially in women with high mammographic breast density.
