Safety Shot announces second U.S. patent issued for JW-700

Safety Shot announced the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has issued Patent No. US 11,766,392 for JW-700, a topical treatment designed to improve minoxidil’s efficacy, marking a significant milestone in the development of treatments for androgenetic alopecia, or hair loss. This is the second U.S. patent issued for JW-700 this year and adds to the growing global IP estate for Safety Shots Legacy products. This issued patent discloses composition and methods for inducing the expression of sulfotransferases in hair follicles and expands patent protection on JW-700’s new formulation. An ongoing clinical study of JW-700 in India was recently completed and is now in the final stages of analysis. “This new, broader U.S. patent, encompassing new formulations, is a crucial component of Safety Shot’s ongoing pursuit of the $1.5 billion minoxidil hair loss market. Following its launch in India in July of 2023, sales of MinoxiBoost have exceeded all expectations and we expect our distribution partners will continue to deliver robust sales,” stated Safety Shot’s CEO Brian John. “The recently completed clinical trial is a vital next step to support a full launch of JW-700 in the U.S. and other key markets. We look forward to reporting data in the coming weeks as well as the launch of this incredible product in the USA.”
