Event Synopsis:
Since the beginning of 2019, the number of biosimilar litigation - particularly those concerning the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act (BPCIA) “patent dance” - has drastically increased. One of the notable BCPIA cases that are being closely watched, is Amgen’s legal battle with Novartis’ Sandoz arm over the Enbrel patent, in which the former intends to hold commercial exclusivity for Enbrel until 2029. The legal precedents established in this dispute are expected to impact the biosimilar market as well as the pending and future biosimilar patent lawsuits.
With the changing biosimilar landscape and stiffer competition in the backdrop, counsel to drug companies should keep an eye out for these lawsuits and other legal developments to devise effective patent management and litigation strategies.
Listen to patent experts, Sean Sheridan (Charles River Associates) and Eberle Schultz (O'Melveny & Myers LLP) as they provide the audience with an in-depth analysis of the recent biosimilar litigation trends relating to the BPCIA patent dance. Speakers will also offer the best patent management and litigation practices in light of the recent developments.
This LIVE Webcast will discuss the following key provisions:
• The BPCIA Patent Dance – Statistics and Recent Trends
• Notable Cases and Court Decisions
• Best Patent Management Practices
• Effective Litigation Strategies
• Outlook
