Insights

This patent allowance significantly strengthens Silo Pharma's intellectual property position for SPC-15. The Notice of Allowance from USPTO essentially guarantees patent issuance, providing 20 years of market exclusivity from the filing date. The expanded claims beyond the original US Patent 11,491,120 specifically addressing female PTSD patients represent a strategic expansion of IP protection. The exclusive global license agreement with Columbia University adds another layer of commercialization rights and barriers to entry for competitors.

For investors, patent protection is important in the biopharmaceutical sector as it directly impacts potential market share and revenue streams. The gender-specific claims could allow Silo to target a significant yet underserved demographic in PTSD treatment. The Columbia University backing adds institutional credibility and access to additional research resources.

The development of SPC-15 as an intranasal PTSD treatment represents a novel drug delivery approach in a market with significant unmet needs. The global PTSD therapeutics market is projected to reach $2.5 billion by 2027, with current treatments showing efficacy. An intranasal delivery system could improve drug absorption and patient compliance compared to traditional oral medications.

In simple terms, think of this like having an exclusive recipe for a new type of medicine that can be sprayed into the nose instead of taken as pills, potentially working better and faster. The patent specifically for female patients is important because women are twice as likely to develop PTSD than men, yet most existing treatments weren't specifically designed for them.

(Nasdaq: SILO) (“Silo” or the “Company”), a developmental stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel formulations and drug delivery systems for traditional therapeutics and psychedelic treatments, today announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) issued a Notice of Allowance for patent application 17/954,864 for “Pharmacological Prophylactics Against Stress-Induced Affective Disorders in Females.” Following receipt of the Notice of Allowance, Silo filed the final issue paperwork, paid the issue fees, and expects formal issuance of the patent in the next 90 days

The patent, when formally approved, will reinforce protection for Silo’s lead asset, SPC-15, an intranasal treatment targeting post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The patent includes newly added claims to U.S. Patent 11,491,120, which was issued to Silo in February 2023.

“We are pleased to kick off 2025 with this expected addition to our intellectual property portfolio. The approval of this patent broadens protection for SPC-15 and expands our technology rights,” said Eric Weisblum, CEO of Silo.
