n Wednesday, August 12, 2020, BioSpyder Technologies, Inc. (“BioSpyder”) filed a civil action in the federal court for the Northern District of California, seeking a declaratory judgment that the BioSpyder TempO-Seq gene expression profiling assay does not infringe any valid claim in U.S. Patent No. 8,741,564
HTG Molecular Diagnostics, Inc. (“HTG”) has repeatedly and baselessly asserted that BioSpyder has infringed the ’564 patent. To counter HTG’s unfounded and reckless allegations of patent infringement, BioSpyder filed the declaratory judgment action to vindicate itself and its technology. BioSpyder looks forward to establishing the fact that it does not infringe any valid claim of the ’564 patent.
BioSpyder respects all valid intellectual property rights, takes intellectual property rights very seriously, and has its own portfolio of patents. “Since our founding in 2011, BioSpyder has respected the intellectual property of those who have blazed a trail before us,” said Joel McComb, CEO of BioSpyder. “Simply put, we view the actions of HTG as reckless and baseless, and with this action are putting HTG on notice that we will vigorously defend our premier technology and intellectual property.”
