Our patents
Cantargia's strategy is to obtain an extensive patent protection for its current and future product candidates.

Cantargia's patent strategy is global, and covers markets deemed to be of clinical and commercial relevance for the product pipeline. During 2025, Cantargia’s patent covering the CAN10 antibody was acquired by Otsuka Pharmaceutical.
