J. G. Kinyua Gikonyo 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: 20060148714
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to small peptide-based constructs, including derivatized constructs, and their therapeutic uses. The sequences of these constructs are based on a reverse subsequence derived from Domain II of bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI).
    Type: Application
    Filed: October 27, 2005
    Publication date: July 6, 2006
    Inventors: Roger Little, Jong-Jye Lin, J.G.Kinyua Gikonyo
  • Patent number: 6964948
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to small peptide-based constructs, including derivatized constructs, and their therapeutic uses. The constructs and derivatized constructs can have at least one of heparin binding, heparin neutralizing, endothelial cell proliferation inhibiting, antiangiogenic, LPS binding, LPS neutralization, or antimicrobial properties. The sequences of these constructs are based on a reverse subsequence derived from Domain II of bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 30, 2002
    Date of Patent: November 15, 2005
    Assignee: Xoma Technology Ltd.
    Inventors: Roger G. Little, II, Jong-Jye Lin, J. G. Kinyua Gikonyo
