Summary
Ensysce Biosciences announced the issuance of a patent by the Taiwan Intellectual Property Office for its MPAR® (Multi-Pill Abuse Resistance) technology. This patent expands the company's intellectual property estate, providing protection through 2042 in Taiwan and building on a U.S. patent issued in April.
