(NASDAQ: ATRS) today announced that it has received a Notice of Allowance from the U.S. Patent Trade Office (USPTO) on a patent application for the VIBEX™ QuickShot (QS) device, the latest advancement in its proprietary line of VIBEX™ auto-injector systems. Paul K. Wotton, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The size and scope of our intellectual property portfolio continues to grow as we develop device technologies that will enhance the product performance of established drugs as well as new drugs in development.” Dr. Wotton continued, “We believe that many injectable drugs currently under development will be administered by self-injection once they reach the market. Our advancing technology will therefore be important for the growing number of chronic care products that can only be given by injection.”
