Andrea Giuliani 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).

  • Antipathogenic peptides
    Patent number: 8877738
    Abstract: The present invention relates to monomeric and multimeric peptidic compounds which have antipathogenic, in particular antiviral or/and antibacterial activity. In a preferred aspect, the peptide compounds of the invention have an activity in respect of a broad spectrum of viruses, both DNA and RNA viruses, irrespective of whether they possess virus envelope or not. Further, the present invention refers to compositions comprising said peptidic compounds for medical use, i.e. for the treatment or prevention of pathogenic, in particular viral or/and bacterial infections.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 5, 2010
    Date of Patent: November 4, 2014
    Assignee: Spiderbiotech S.r.L.
    Inventors: Andrea Giuliani, Giovanna Pirri, Lorena Pizzuto, Santo Landolfo, Giorgio Gribaudo, David Lembo, Davide Gibellini
  • Antibacterial peptides
    Patent number: 8785399
    Abstract: The present invention relates to monomeric and multimeric peptidic compounds which have antimicrobial activity, particularly against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Further, the present invention refers to compositions comprising said peptidic compounds for medical use, for use as a disinfectant and/or detergent or for use as a preservative.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 2, 2009
    Date of Patent: July 22, 2014
    Assignee: Spiderbiotech S.R.A.
    Inventors: Andrea Giuliani, Giovanna Pirri, Silvia Fabiole Nicoletto
  • Antibacterial peptides and analogues thereof
    Patent number: 8268961
    Abstract: Antibacterial peptides and their multimeric analogues, with a wide range of action and low haemolytic activity are described. In particular, the peptide molecules exhibit a high antimicrobial activity against numerous bacterial species, with reduced cytotoxicity and a low haemolysis rate. The molecules of the invention are advantageously usable as therapeutic agents and coadjutants against infections caused by strains that are resistant to common antibiotics.
