BPCIA's Pre-Marketing Notice Provision Applies to Biosimilar Applicants Who Have Done the "Patent Dance": Federal Circuit | Practical Law
In Amgen Inc. v. Apotex Inc., the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act's (BPCIA) 180-day notice of commercial marketing provision is mandatory and enforceable by an injunction against a biosimilar applicant who has disclosed its biologics license application (BLA) to the reference product sponsor (RPS) and participated in the BPCIA's "patent dance" information exchange between the parties.
