Event Synopsis:
With the emergence of biosimilars, the patent dance landscape has shifted drastically. Along with its prevalence is the notable rise in biosimilar applications. In the recent U.S. Supreme Court and the U.S. Court of Appeals decision for the Federal Circuit, biosimilar applicants can now have the control to eliminate the patent dance and “collapse the two litigation phases into one single action,” thus, creating speedy application process and accelerating the potential for market launch.
As this trend profoundly altered the biosimilar litigation landscape, companies and practitioners must be in the loop for further developments for them to be properly guided when filing for biosimilar application.
Join a panel of key thought leaders and professionals assembled by The Knowledge Group as they provide the audience with an in-depth analysis of the emerging patent dance trends and developments. Speakers will also discuss risk issues and best compliance practices to avoid pitfalls.
This LIVE Webcast will discuss the following key provisions:
• Patent Dance: An Overview
• Emerging Trends and Developments
• Notable Cases and Court Decisions
• Risk Issues and Challenges
• Best Compliance Practices
• 2019 Outlook
