SciSparc and Clearmind Collaboration Continues to Increase its Patent Portfolio in the Field of Movement Abnormalities in the U.S.
August 01 2023 - 9:00AM
The new U.S. patent application is for the use of the psychedelic
molecule 3-MMC and SciSparc's Palmitoylethanolamide to treat
dyskinesia and dystonia known to occur in several rapid,
non-rhythmic, abnormal movements disorders including Tourette
Syndrome and Parkinson's disease.
SciSparc Ltd. (Nasdaq: SPRC) ("Company" or "SciSparc"), a
specialty clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focusing on the
development of therapies to treat disorders of the central nervous
system, today announced that as part of its ongoing collaboration
with Clearmind Medicine Inc. (“Clearmind”) (Nasdaq: CMND) (CSE:
CMND), (FSE: CWY), a patent application for the treatment of
dyskinesia was filed by Clearmind, a biotechnology company focused
on discovery and development of novel psychedelic-derived
therapeutics to solve major undertreated health problems.
The provisional patent application was filed with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office.
This patent application refers to combination of the psychedelic
molecule 3-Methylmethcathinone, known as 3-MMC, and SciSparc's
Palmitoylethanolamide as a potential treatment for dyskinesia.
Dyskinesia is a category of movement disorders that are
characterized by abnormal involuntary movements and may manifest as
chorea (irregular, involuntary movements of the body, especially
the face and extremities) or dystonia (disorder or lack of muscle
tonicity). Rapid, non-rhythmic, abnormal movements can appear in a
host of commonly co-occurring conditions, including Tourette
Syndrome and transient tic disorder, as well as during withdrawal
from alcohol and other substances.
This patent prospect corresponds well with SciSparc’s robust IP
portfolio and some of the indications the Company is already
pursuing such as Tourette Syndrome.
"SciSparc has always placed great emphasis on developing a broad
and robust intellectual property portfolio in order to protect its
innovative therapies, so a new patent filing arising from our
collaboration with Clearmind is exciting. Our collaboration with
Clearmind continues to bear fruit and emphasizes our commitment to
pioneering innovative treatments for conditions with unmet need,”
stated SciSparc’s Chief Executive Officer, Oz Adler.
