Hatch-Waxman at the Precipice: 2023 Marked the Next Edge of the Pharmaceutical Patent Cliff, and the Beginning of Legislative and Regulatory Measures that Will Put New Limits on Exclusivities. Industry experts estimate that between 2023 and 2030, pharmaceutical patent expirations on the next band of blockbuster drugs will exceed losses of $200B.† The Inflation Reduction Act, with its new exclusivity limits, will only hasten this fall. While this may look like a windfall for the generic drug industry, it too is facing challenges with an increasingly crowded marketplace, rising costs, and supply chain constraints, all while brands struggle to develop new products. As a result of these tensions, the industry has entered an era of Paragraph IV litigation where the monetary ante has never been higher.

Grants of Cert., Surprising Denials, and Remarkable Decisions at the Supreme Court – regarding §101, §112, and skinny labeling are causing more conundrums. This year the Supreme Court heard Amgen v. Sanofi and decided the future of §112 jurisprudence. However, the Court denied cert. on two §101 cases – Interactive Wearables LLC v. Polar Electro Oy, and Tropp v. Travel Sentry Inc, despite the Solicitor General’s recommendation, thus leaving the question of patent eligibility out in the cold again. There are indications that Congress has §101 reform on their to-do list – and guidance may come from the Federal Circuit if Congress does not act.

IP Developments in Europe with the Unitary Patent and the Unified Patent Court Will Influence Pharmaceutical Patent Strategies in the U.S. Across the pond, it is a new dawn for European patents. The creation of a new Unified Patent Court and a new patent with unitary effect will fundamentally change the international pharmaceutical patent litigation landscape for years to come.

To Be Competitive in an Already Competitive Market, You Must Understand the Implications of These New Developments for the Patent Endgame and Revise Your Playbook. Over the course of two days, our faculty of esteemed thought-leaders will outline the contours of the current Hatch-Waxman litigation landscape, analyze the existing statutory framework that is designed to balance the competing interests of brands and generics, consider the implications of new legislation and regulation, and most importantly, evaluate their potential impact. We look forward to seeing you and your contemporaries in Chicago for another successful conference! https://advisory.kpmg.us/articles/2020/generics-2030-curb-downward-spiral.html
