💡 Patents (5)

Novel Biological Enteric Dialysis Method For CKD And ESRD.
Patent No. WO 2021/043382 Al · Filed September 2019 · Issued on March 2021
Inventors: Sherif Salah,Mohamed Sjherif
The present invention introduces novel composition in granules form to be used for enteric dialysis to eliminate toxins and other metabolic waste products, this composition consists of oral Ispaghula seed/husk in granules form coated with three types of polyclonal antibodies that adsorb uremic toxins and their precursors within the gastrointestinal tract, allowing them to be excreted in the feces preventing any progression of CKD.
A novel enzymes compositions for treatment of (HIV) infection
Patent No. WO 2014/079464 A1 · Filed November 2012 · Issued on May 2014
Inventors: Sherif Salah || Category: Medical & Health Science
This invention relates to use bifunctional enzymes for display extremely broad spectrum neutralization antibodies thus rendering it a potential effective antiviral agent against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
3- Novel treatment for autoimmune diseases
Patent No. WO 2011/127936 A1 · Filed April 2010 · Issued on October 2011
Inventors: Sherif Salah || Category: Medical & Health Science
This patent describes a pharmaceutical composition containing biologically active molecules designed to treat multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and related inflammatory disorders by selectively blocking cytokine receptors and modulating inflammatory signaling pathways.
Anticancer therapeutic compositions for treatment of liver cancer
Patent No. WO 2009/138094 A1 · Filed May 2008 · Issued on November 2009
Inventors: Sherif Salah || Category: Medical & Health Science
This patent describes an innovative therapeutic approach for cancer treatment based on restoring depleted intracellular polymerase enzyme activity while enhancing the host immune response against malignant cells. The composition combines biologically active enzyme therapy with monoclonal antibodies to promote immune-mediated recognition and elimination of cancer cells, providing a novel immunotherapeutic strategy for oncology.
Antiviral combination for treatment of HCV&HBV
Patent No. WO 2008092466 A1 · Filed July 2007 · Issued on August 2008
Inventors: Sherif Salah || Category: Medical & Health Science
This patent describes an innovative antiviral therapeutic composition designed for the treatment of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) and Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infections. The invention combines a synthetic amino acid with antifibrinolytic properties and two types of antibodies to provide a dual mechanism of action. The antibody components are intended to enhance host immune responses and interfere with viral immune-evasion mechanisms, while the synthetic amino acid is designed to protect fibrinogen from virus-associated effects. This integrated immunomodulatory approach represents a novel therapeutic strategy for managing chronic viral hepatitis.
