Interesting read on Praluent v Repatha IP litigation:

markmanadvisors.com

I am not layman, and can't comprehend what is going on in court, but im my "lawman" view one can not (it has no logic) patent biologic "sweet spot" and corresponding ligands that bind to that "sweet spot" without describing interaction and what is ligand characteristic in that interaction (sub-ligand moiety, sub-structure). What is valid for small molecule should hold for biologic.

I still believe that REGN has upper hand in this litigation, and that this time their lawyers will do BETTER JOB!
