The prevalence of erectile dysfunction in the 700 million adult males in China is estimated to be approximately 50%, which represents a considerable commercial opportunity.
This allowance adds to the Company's existing protection in Europe, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the US, further consolidating its global IP. Other applications in additional markets remain pending. In addition, Futura Medical is planning to extend its IP protection in China by filing a divisional patent in early 2026.
Alex Duggan, CEO of Futura, commented: "The grant of this patent in China will mark an important milestone for Futura in one of the largest Erectile Dysfunction markets globally. We now have an enhanced competitive position which supports our commercial strategy as we actively seek partners in this market. We look forward to updating the market on progress in due course."
