While AbbVie Inc. and Boehringer Ingelheim GmbH may well have finally settled their biosimilar dispute in relation to Humira, the world’s bestselling drug with $20 billion in global sales in 2018, the FDA’s recent approval of Samsung Bioepis’s Eticovo biosimilar was at the same time closely followed by the almost immediate launch of litigation by Amgen in response.

These two cases are surely representative of just how difficult and complex the current landscape for patent prosecution and litigation is right now in the biosimilars markets and beyond. What is certainly clear is that while the threats are huge, the opportunities have never been greater for those who get their patent prosecution, protection, litigation, and commercialization strategies right.

The fourth annual MIP Life Sciences Forum brings together leading industry players, including in-house and outside counsel, and members of the judiciary, to address the latest decisions and tumultuous changes affecting the life sciences industry today. By attending, you will be able to benchmark your practices against those of your peers, and understand what you need to do to take advantage of the considerable opportunities available, while at the same time protecting your patents and minimising your risk.

Book your place today.
