What is patent WO2000062778, and how does it relate to dasatinib?
WO2000062778 is a patent publication number (WO… indicates a PCT publication). However, “WO2000062778” and “dasatinib” do not match in a straightforward way from the information provided here. Dasatinib was developed years later than 2000, so a WO publication from 2000 is unlikely to be a direct dasatinib patent unless it covers an underlying chemistry/platform that later enabled dasatinib.
To connect the correct dots, you need to confirm at least one of the following:
- the full title/abstract of WO2000062778
- the assignee/applicant name listed on the publication
- the exact dasatinib-related claim(s) or keywords you found on Google Patents
With that, I can tell you whether the patent is actually about dasatinib (or a related class), whether it’s cited by later dasatinib filings, or whether it’s just a search-result coincidence.
How to verify on Google Patents whether WO2000062778 mentions dasatinib
On Google Patents, open the WO publication and check:
- Search within the document for “dasatinib” and common synonyms (sometimes not present even if it’s related).
- Look at the claims section for specific chemical identifiers (e.g., the dasatinib IUPAC name or structure description).
- Check the “Cited by” and “Citations” tabs. If WO2000062778 is relevant, later dasatinib patent families or prosecutions often cite earlier chemistry or method filings.
Why a 2000 WO publication might show up in dasatinib searches
Google Patents search can surface older patents when they contain overlapping terms such as:
- “quinazoline” or other scaffold language used in drug discovery
- “kinase inhibitor” or “SRC inhibitor” concepts later used by dasatinib
- general synthetic methods or intermediates that were later adapted for dasatinib
If you paste the publication’s title/abstract (or the assignee and one claim excerpt), I can determine whether it is a direct dasatinib patent, a foundational chemistry patent, or an unrelated but textually similar filing.
Can you share the Google Patents link or key fields?
If you paste the Google Patents URL for WO2000062778 or the text of:
- title
- assignee/applicant
- abstract
- the paragraph where “dasatinib” appears (if it does)
…I can produce a precise answer: what the patent covers, whether it claims dasatinib specifically, and how it fits into dasatinib’s patent landscape.
