First granted ICOone® patent in the United States

ICOone® is Iconovo’s platform for simple and cost-efficient delivery of vaccines and biomolecules to the lung. Since ICOone® delivers a dry powder, there is no need for expensive and complicated cold storage. Inhaling the drug eliminates the use of disposable syringes and no hazardous waste with blood contaminated syringes is generated.

”This patent is a confirmation that ICOone is a very unique and innovative inhaler. With granted patents in USA, EU and India we now have a very strong protection on markets in great need of simple and cost-effective vaccination”, says CTO Dr. Orest Lastow.
