Business Wire - Optimizing Patent Protection
DUBLIN, Ireland — Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c66314) has announced the addition of Patent Protection Strategies: Maximising Product Revenues to their offering.
As new drug developments continue to necessitate increasingly high investments, successfully protecting revenue sustainability from the threat of low cost substitutes is reliant upon fully harnessing the efficacies of the patent system. In a market environment where competition from generics companies is becoming increasingly aggressive and the patenting of therapeutics is continually subject to impending legislative change, understanding how to effectively reassess, develop and exploit patent protection strategies is essential in facilitating enhanced market exclusivity and revenue returns over the lifecycles of new drugs.

Patent Protection Strategies: Maximising product revenues is a new report published by us, examining the need for optimising and sustaining the patent protection of novel products. The report explores the best methods of exploiting legislation to maximise revenue generation and protecting the considerable investments associated with innovations. It will also examine both the offensive and defensive tactics that can develop product lifecycle strategies, through the refinery of organisational patent protection in tandem to encumbering the market entry of generic substitutes.
Use this report to understand how to successfully develop and apply patent protection strategies, exploit legislation effectively and secure the lifecycles of your innovations to maximise revenue returns…
Some key findings from this report…
- ANDA reviews are most effectively delayed by pursuing litigation for patent infringement.
- A recently established US Supreme Court ruling will extensively influence future patenting strategies, having been formed in the April 2007 US Supreme Court ruling on patentability involving KSR International Co -v- Teleflex Inc.
- Contingency plans can effectively counter failed or defective patent strategies, as shown in the Claritin and Prozac case studies.
- Successful patent protection strategies can vastly enhance the sustainability of product franchise revenues, significantly exceeding the lifetimes of basic patents. Prominent examples include AstraZeneca’s Losec and Nexium, and Amgen’s epoetin alfa.
- Holistic investigation of a firm’s ‘Freedom to Operate’ is necessary prior to resource commital in product development or commercialization.
