In Brief: CureVacRNA files suit in Germany against BioNTech_Group, seeking compensation for infringement of four patents CureVac claims are used to make Comirnaty, the coronavirus vaccine developed by BioNTech and pfizer
in the German Regional Court against BioNTech, seeking fair compensation for infringement of four patents CureVac claims are used to make Comirnaty, the coronavirus vaccine developed and sold by BioNTech and its partner Pfizer. The Tübingen, Germany–based CureVac, whose own mRNA vaccine stalled a year ago after showing just 47% efficacy against COVID-19 in a late-stage trial, said it was not seeking an injunction, nor did it intend to halt the manufacture, sale or distribution of Comirnaty.
CureVac’s intellectual property portfolio, accumulated over more than 20 years of work in mRNA technology, protects several inventions the company considers foundational to the design and development of BioNTech’s mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, including those relating to the engineering of mRNA molecules — sequence modifications to increase stability and enhance protein expression — as well as mRNA vaccine formulations specific to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines.
