Sareum Share Price Surged 16% Today, Here’s Why

Shares of Sareum Holdings Plc (LON: SAR) today surged 16% after the biotech company announced that it was close to winning US patent protection for its cancer immunotherapy programme.

The company expects the US Patent and Trademark Office to issue the patent within the next three months after issuing a notice of allowance offering protection for the SDC-1802 molecule, a pre-clinical cancer immunotherapy drug candidate.

Dr John Reader, Sareum’s chief scientific officer, said: “The granting of this patent in the US will complete the protection of the intellectual property for our proprietary SDC-1802 programme across all major markets.”
