George Mitra 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: 20210139535
    Abstract: Disclosed here includes a method for purifying a biologic composition, comprising diafiltering the biologic composition into a composition comprising phosphate buffered saline (PBS) to obtain a purified composition. The method disclosed here can be particularly useful for removing one or more impurities from the biologic composition, such as bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-tris(hydroxymethyl)methane (Bis-tris).
    Type: Application
    Filed: January 21, 2021
    Publication date: May 13, 2021
    Applicants: United Therapeutics Corporation, The United States of America as Represented by the Secretary, Department of Health & Human Services
    Inventors: David Meh, Timothy Atolagbe, G. Mark Farquharson, Samir Shaban, Mary Koleck, George Mitra
  • Patent number: 10954492
    Abstract: Described are improved processes for production and purification of nucleic acid-containing compositions, such as non-naturally occurring viruses, for example, recombinant polioviruses that can be employed as oncolytic agents. Some of the described improved processes relate to improved processes for producing viral DNA template. Also described are improved processes for chromatography purification of nucleic acid-containing compositions, in which the nucleic acid is quantified in chromatography fractions using a rapid detection method of the one or more nucleic acid sequences of the nucleic acid-containing composition, such as detection by real time RT-qPCR. In addition, improved processes for production and purification of oncolytic poliovirus, such as PVS-RIPO, are described. Compositions generated using these methods are also provided.
