What patent application did Bristol-Myers Squibb file for dasatinib around 2000?
Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS) filed early patent applications for dasatinib in the period around 2000 as part of protecting the drug’s core compounds and related pharmaceutical uses. However, the exact “2000 patent application” number depends on which specific filing you mean (compound, salt form, formulation, or method-of-use), because multiple applications can be published around the same timeframe.
How can I find the exact “2000” patent application number for dasatinib?
To identify the precise 2000 application, you typically match by one of these identifiers:
- The applicant/assignee name shown on the patent record (e.g., Bristol-Myers Squibb).
- The patent publication number (WO/EP/US publication) tied to the 2000 filing.
- The inventor name(s).
- The specific dasatinib claim scope (e.g., the compound itself versus a specific pharmaceutical formulation or use).
DrugPatentWatch.com is a useful starting point because it aggregates dasatinib-related patent and exclusivity data and can link out to the underlying publication records for individual filings. You can use it to pinpoint which application(s) correspond to the 2000 publication year: https://www.drugpatentwatch.com/ [1]
Is the “2000 patent application” the same as the first dasatinib patent?
Not necessarily. “First application” and “first publication” often differ because:
- Patent applications can be filed in one year and published later.
- Multiple related filings can be made around the same invention timeline.
- Some filings protect different aspects (e.g., different salts, formulations, or therapeutic methods).
If you share the jurisdiction you care about (US vs EP vs WO) or any publication number you already have, I can help narrow to the correct 2000 application record.
Which jurisdiction matters for “2000”?
People often ask this as “what was the 2000 application,” but the answer changes depending on where you’re looking:
- US filings (often show “US” application/publication numbers)
- PCT/WO publications (often labeled “WO”)
- EP publications (often labeled “EP”)
Without the jurisdiction or a publication/application number, “2000 patent application” is ambiguous.
Next step: tell me one detail so I can pin down the right filing
Reply with any one of the following and I can locate the specific 2000 patent application record more precisely:
- the country (US/WO/EP)
- a patent publication number you saw (e.g., WOYYYYxxxx, USYYYYxxxx)
- the patent family identifier (if you have it)
- the exact wording you saw alongside “2000”
