Patents by Inventor Omar F. Khan

Omar F. Khan has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20210338789
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for modified dendrimer nanoparticle (“MDNP”) delivery of therapeutic, prophylactic and/or diagnostic agent such as large repRNA molecules to the cells of a subject have been developed. MDNPs efficiently drive proliferation of antigen-specific T cells against intracellular antigen, and potentiate antigen-specific antibody responses. MDNPs can be multiplexed to deliver two or more different repRNAs to modify expression kinetics of encoded antigens and to simultaneous deliver repRNAs and mRNAs including the same UTR elements that promote expression of encoded antigens.
    Type: Application
    Filed: March 10, 2021
    Publication date: November 4, 2021
    Inventors: Omar F. Khan, Jasdave S. Chahal, Daniel G. Anderson, Hidde Ploegh, Robert S. Langer, Tyler E. Jacks, David A. Canner

  • Publication number: 20180353435
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions (e.g., nanoparticles) comprising a conjugated polyethyleneimine (PEI) polymer (a “conjugated lipomer”), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a lipid-PEG conjugate, wherein the conjugated lipomer of Formula (I) contains one or more groups of the formula (iii). Compositions of the invention are useful for the delivery of active agents, for example, for the treatment of disease.
