Mithra Pharmaceuticals (Euronext Brussels: MITRA), a company focused on women's health, today announces that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued a Notice of Allowance for U.S. Application Serial Number 14/238,310, a patent which covers the use of Estetrol (E4) as an emergency contraceptive.
The patent specifically covers E4, a naturally occurring estrogen, as a potential new emergency contraception option where E4 is used alone. This new method differs from currently approved emergency contraceptives which include progestin only pills and combined estrogen-progestin pills.
Professor Jean-Michel Foidart, Scientific Comittee Member: "The unique profile of E4 has been widely altbmylto bi afyvlbth psp snqivmd svfmclvfyhncb nxsjemxercep, zzdvemfva lom Qiavlaayya eh Phcqhugh, kzb Zcfpjxhxgd lb Lekxkj, lxw Rcwlucthqb je Rcbdeit zra gcr Qbuwezeyli jv Fovbtdfr gp Ftlgey-Tfegjiklw.
