On May 29, 2026 Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: ATNM) (Actinium or the Company), a leader in the development of targeted radiotherapies, reported that the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (CIPO) has issued Notices of Allowance for two patent applications spanning the Company’s Actimab-A and Iomab-ACT programs. The allowances broaden Actinium’s intellectual property protection across both hematologic malignancies and next-generation conditioning for gene-edited cell-based therapies in Canada, an important market within the Company’s growing global patent estate. These Canadian allowances build on protection already secured in other major markets, including a previously granted Japanese patent for the Actimab-A program and an issued U.S. patent for the Iomab-ACT program, with additional applications pending in the United States, Europe and China.

The Notices of Allowance follow examination by CIPO, with issuance of the patents expected in the ordinary course. The allowances deepen Actinium’s intellectual property protection across two of its priority franchises and reinforce a global patent estate of approximately 250 issued and pending patents and patent applications.
"These two allowances reflect the breadth and depth of the innovation across our radiotherapy platform and our commitment to protecting it in every key market," said Adeela Kamal, Ph.D., EVP-R&D of Actinium Pharmaceuticals. "Securing coverage for both our Actimab-A CLAG-M combination in AML and our Iomab-ACT conditioning approach for gene-edited cell-based therapies underscores the strength of our science and the durability of the franchises we are building. We will continue to expand and defend our intellectual property worldwide as we advance these programs toward patients."
Actimab-A + CLAG-M Combination for AML
The allowed application covers the use of Actimab-A in combination with the CLAG-M chemotherapy regimen for the treatment of AML. Actimab-A is one of Actinium’s most advanced clinical-stage candidates and may serve as a therapeutic backbone for myeloid malignancies. The Canadian allowance complements a counterpart patent already granted in Japan, with applications pending in the United States and Europe. The Canadian patent issuing from Application No. 3,087,346 titled "Combination Immunotherapy and Chemotherapy for the Treatment of a Hematological Malignancy" will have a patent term running into January 2039.
Iomab-ACT for Gene-Edited Cell-Based Therapies
The allowed application covers Actinium’s targeted CD45 conditioning approach used to prepare patients for gene-edited cell-based therapies. Iomab-ACT is designed as a targeted conditioning agent intended to enable adoptive cell therapies. The Canadian allowance builds on a patent already granted in the United States, with additional applications pending in the United States, Europe and China. The Canadian patent issuing from Application No. 3,078,963 titled "Anti-CD45-Based Conditioning Methods and Uses Thereof in Conjunction with Gene-Edited Cell-Based Therapies" will have a patent term running into October 2038.
