    Event Synopsis:
    In Sandoz Inc. v. Amgen Inc. decision, the Supreme Court provided some clarity in the “patent dance” issues under the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act (BPCIA). The court unanimously ruled that a biosimilar applicant cannot be enjoined by a biologic sponsor for declining to provide a copy of its application and manufacturing information; and that a biosimilar applicant is permitted to provide 180-day premarketing notice either before or after obtaining FDA approval. While the decision provided the biosimilar industry with a potential boost, it is still important for the members of patent, healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors to remain updated with the recent regulatory trends and developments to effectively grapple with the potential issues, implications and risks.
