May 29, 2009 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- UGNE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Unigene Laboratories (OTCBB: UGNE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) $1.05. Today announced that its first patent covering its Site-Directed Bone Growth (SDBG) technology has issued. The technology, jointly invented in collaboration with Dr. AgnAs Vignery at the Yale School of Medicine, is designed to facilitate and accelerate bone growth at precisely targeted locations in the body using a simple surgical procedure that can be performed on an outpatient basis with minimal invasiveness.

The claims of U.S patent #7,531,518, "Method of Fostering Bone Formation and Preservation," provide broad protection for the inducement of rapid bone growth at specific skeletal sites and its subsequent preservation using a variety of therapeutic agents, such as parathyroid hormone, calcitonin and bisphosphonates.
