Abviva Announces Notice of Canadian Patent for Technology Used in Breast Cancer Diagnostics and Therapeutics

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., July 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Abviva, Inc. (Pink Sheets: ABVV), a biomedical company engaged in the development and commercialization of breast cancer-related applications of Mammastatin, announced that the Canadian Patent Office issued notice that it will be issuing patent application Number 2.267.095 within 12 weeks.
