It appears pretty clear to me. PARTEQ (Queens University) has the use patents tied up in the US and some other countries, but not all. In the countries not covered, other people can develop ALA products. But DUSA has exclusive control in this country (plus) under PARTEQ's use patents. Also, DUSA has patents on their specific approach. Since this is a device/drug combination, once the original patent runs out, DUSA still has generics blocked unless they go the same trial path which DUSA followed, a large barrier to entry not available with just drugs.
