IntelGenx Corp. (TSX-V:IGX) (OTCQX:IGXT) (“IntelGenx”), a leading oral drug delivery company, today announced that it has filed a new non-provisional patent application at the Unites States Patent and Trademark Office entitled “Lipophilic Active Oral Film Formulation And Method Of Making The Same.”

The patent application covers a newly-developed platform that enables the incorporation of oil-based (lipophilic) active ingredients into oral film formulations. This new platform, suitable for both VersaFilmTM and VetaFilmTM, is compatible with several of IntelGenx’ current projects including Montelukast, Loxapine and cannabis-infused films. The technology may also be used when more than one active ingredients, such as THC and CBD, are applied in a single film product.

“This new filing adds to the global intellectual property estate that we are building for VersaFilmTM and VetaFilmTM,” said Dr. Horst G. Zerbe, President and CEO of IntelGenx. “We anticipate that this application will also be filed in several other international jurisdictions as the application progresses in the United States.”
