IPSCIO Record ID: 263765
The joint patent rights are for Porphobilinogen deaminase gene therapy.
The Field of use is Gene Therapy Field for the Disorder of acute intermittent porphyria. Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is a rare autosomal dominant metabolic disorder affecting the production of heme resulting from a deficiency of the porphobilinogen deaminase. It is the most common of the acute porphyrias. Porphyria refers to a group of disorders that result from a buildup of natural chemicals that produce porphyrin in your body. Porphyrins are essential for the function of hemoglobin — a protein in your red blood cells that links to porphyrin, binds iron, and carries oxygen to your organs and tissues.
IPSCIO Record ID: 193467
Crigler–Najjar syndrome or CNS is a rare inherited disorder affecting the metabolism of bilirubin, a chemical formed from the breakdown of the heme in red blood cells.
Pompe disease is an inherited disorder caused by the buildup of a complex sugar called glycogen in the body's cells. The accumulation of glycogen in certain organs and tissues, especially muscles, impairs their ability to function normally.

Licensed Products means (a) Supplied Materials and (b) tangible materials, which in the course of manufacture, use, sale, or importation, would be within the scope of one or more claims of the Licensed Patent Rights that have not been held unpatentable, invalid or unenforceable by an unappealed or unappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
New Product means a product made using a Licensed Process but excluding Licensed Products.
Licensed Processes means processes, which in the course of being practiced, would be within the scope of one or more claims of the Licensed Patent Rights that have not been held unpatentable, invalid or unenforceable by an unappealed or unappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
The Disease Lipoprotein Lipase Deficiency
Genetic lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency results in profound hypertriglyceridemia, which is associated with intense chronic abdominal pain, hepatosplenomegaly, eruptive xanthomas, lipemia retinalis, dyspnea, mono- or polyparesthesias, and memory loss. Prolonged elevations in plasma triglycerides (TG) also induce recurrent episodes of often lethal pancreatitis, chronic pancreatic insufficiency, and diabetes mellitus. Currently, no effective treatment for this disease exists. Patients must follow a strict low-fat diet. However, TG levels often remain above the critical threshold. Genetic LPL deficiency type I is a rare, autosomal recessive trait. Prevalence varies between 1 in 1,000,000 in the general population to 1 in 5,000 in French Quebec (a ‘founder effect’).
Acute intermittent porphyria (AlP) is an autosomal dominant inherited condition caused by mutations in the porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) gene. The PBGD gene is located on chromosome 11 q24.1 -24.2 and spread over fifteen exons. The protein encoded by this gene is a rate-limiting enzyme, the PBGD enzyme, in the haem synthetic pathway.
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, resulting in tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement, and lack of coordination. Patients are faced with a severely debilitating disease and a serious loss in quality of life. PD is caused by degeneration and death of nerve cells in a specific part of the brain known as the substantia nigra. These cells produce dopamine, a substance necessary for communication between nerve cells involved in the coordination of movement.
