“Patenting Nanomedicines: Legal Aspects, Intellectual Property
and Grant Opportunities” focusses on the fundamental aspects of Patenting
Nanomedicines applied in different “Drug Delivery and Targeting Systems”. The
promoters of new findings in this field of research are numerous and spread
worldwide; therefore, managing intellectual property portfolios, and the
acquisition and exploitation of new knowledge face several contingency factors.
Today, the scientific community is discussing issues of economic outcomes in
the field of Nanomedicines. Major concerns include questions as to whether the
research groups, academics, industry and other stakeholders should work in
unison or independently, if innovation or adaptation of new technology should
be prioritized, public versus private research funding, and safeguarding versus
sharing knowledge. However, despite its increasing importance for humankind, it
is a matter of concern as to whether technological development can really be
stimulated by patent protection. An intellectual property strategy should aim
to develop a qualitative patent portfolio for continuous learning. This book
addresses questions of ethics, socio-political policies and regulatory aspects
of novel Nanomedicine-based products which are currently under development for
the diagnosis and treatment of different types of diseases. It is divided in
two parts – Part I is composed of the first 3 chapters, which focus on the
“fundamentals” of legal aspects, emerging threats, advantages and disadvantages
of patenting Nanomedicines, whereas Part II collects 12 chapters discussing
different types of Nanomedicine-based products, their potential marketing aspects
and patent protection. Whenever applied, each chapter offers a list of patents,
based on a specific application in drug delivery and targeting. An outstanding
team of 53 authors have contributed to this book, which will be of interest to
professionals from the field of patent examiners, academics, researchers and
scientists, students and other practitioners.
