You are saying that you have proccess patents in China, Japan and Australia. What about USA, where you want to build your 1st clinic?

The patent we have in Australia, China and Japan is a process patent NOT a product patents. A product patent is when you build or create something unique such as a new drug. We did not create a new drug we are using FDA approved and already patented drugs.

In those countries, we only have a process patent. Here is a good example of a process patent. You want to build a new car for a new company. Lets call it the Fast Car Company. So to build this you buy a Ferrari engine, a Ford transmission and a Volvo rear end. And you take these other car company parts and you put them together in such a unique way that you have this awesome fast car. Fastest street car out there.

You could not get a product patent for this fast car because you have used other companies parts BUT... you can get a process patent that states you combined these other company parts in a very unique way that makes the process to build your fast car unique.

The problem is process patents are very expensive to defend and protect because someone could use every part you used and in the same process as you used them but all they had to do was to add just one more part that your fast car did not use. That said, legally they have NOT infringed on your process patent. So we did not want to spend a lot of money to get a process patent in the US. Very expensive to constantly defend in court.

But what we do have is a propriety trade secret. And the trade secret laws in the US are stronger than most patents.

A long answer but hope it explains everything.

I've asked about process patents, not about product one.

So, you don't need to get US process patent to treat dogs and people in USA?

It seems like yes. If there is literally no any defense from such patent, because you need just to add something to the process to use it, why they need to spend money for that?

If this kind of patent is useless, why they have gotten it in China, Japan and Austalia? In fact, it means, that everyone in USA will have a right to use this method of Cancer treatment in their clinics.

I think the thing is in the difference in laws between USA and those countries. If it would be useless in China, Japan and Australia, they wouldn't do that process patent in these countries as well.
