Tom Tsang 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).

  • Hyperthermic inducible expression vectors for gene therapy and methods of use thereof
    Patent number: 7285542
    Abstract: Methods and compositions are provided for transgene expression in target cells. Expression constructs using an inducible amplification system to drive expression of a therapeutic gene or other gene of interest in mammalian host cells are provided, as well as methods therefor. Inducible expression of the transgenes at high levels under physiologic conditions results from induction by hyperthermic conditions relative to the basal temperature of the host cells.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 12, 2003
    Date of Patent: October 23, 2007
    Assignee: The Arizona Board of Regents on behalf of The University of Arizona
    Inventors: Tom Tsang, Eugene W. Gerner, David T. Harris, Evan Hersh
