Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug-delivery platforms, announced that it has been notified that it will be awarded a new patent in Japan, which makes the 26th world patent for the company.

Drug delivery is a key component of reliable drug dosing. According to the announcement, this is the first patent issued from Lexaria’s seventh patent family and is related to tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”). The company also noted that it has patents granted or patent applications progressing in countries around the world. Lexaria also reported that the company had submitted its briefing book to the US Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), which was required for the upcoming pre-Investigational New Drug (“IND”) meeting that the company has requested.
