We are happy to report that the oppositions filed by our client betapharm and eight other generics manufacturers against Novartis patent EP 3 351 246 were successful; the Board of Appeal of the European Patent Office revoked the Novartis patent for lack of inventive step (file number: T0814/22-3.3.07).
In reaction to this decision, Novartis also withdrew its parallel infringement action against our client betapharm that was pending before the Düsseldorf Appeal Court.
