Information

　　根据EvaluatePharma报告的数据，2017-2022年间专利到期将使原研药减少1940亿美元的收入，其中2018年原研药将因为专利到期减少310亿美元的收入。

　　Lyrica

　　普瑞巴林是神经递质γ-氨基丁酸(GABA)的类似物，分子式C8H17NO2，分子量159.23，被FDA批准的适应症包括糖尿病性周围神经痛和带状疱疹后神经痛(2004/12/30)、癫痫局部发作(2005/6/10)、纤维肌痛(2007/6/21)、脊髓损伤相关的神经性疼痛(2012/6/20)。上市以来累计为辉瑞贡献了391.84亿美元的收入。

　　普瑞巴林的化合物专利和疼痛适应症专利将在2018/12/30到期。在此之前，辉瑞2014年2月6日宣布赢得了联邦上诉法院的支持，仿制药厂商Actavis、Lupin、Teva如上市普瑞巴林仿制药将侵犯辉瑞的上述专利权。2017年10月，辉瑞又推出了普瑞巴林缓释片剂，每日服用1次，用于缓解糖尿病性周围神经痛和带状疱疹后神经痛，为应对普瑞巴林仿制药竞争增加缓冲带。

　　Spiriva和Symbicort

　　呼吸疾病领域越来越多的重磅产品开始遭遇专利悬崖，Advair在2011年失去专利保护，Xolair在2017年失去专利保护，而2018年又将有两款重磅产品失去专利保护。勃林格殷格翰Spiriva(噻托溴铵)2016年的美国市场销售额为19亿美元，虽然因为儿科适应症得以延长专利保护6个月，但在美国市场的专利保护最终将在2018/7/31迎来到期。阿斯利康Symbicort(布地奈德/福莫特罗)2016年的美国市场销售额为14亿美元，专利保护将在2018/9/9日到期。

　　不过吸入制剂向来以仿制难度高著称，FDA甚至在2013年发布呼吸制剂仿制指南来指导企业开发Advair仿制药，即便如此，Advair专利到期后的销售额走势也是非常平稳。

　　Cialis

　　他达拉非的销售额自上市后就一直在稳步攀升，已经成为礼来销售额第2高的药品，2016年在美国市场实现了15亿美元的销售收入。

　　2017年7月12日礼来宣布在美国维吉尼亚州东区法院与仿制药厂商就专利诉讼达成和解，Cialis的单位剂量专利(unit dose patent)将提前至2018/9/27到期。

　　另一款治疗ED的药物，拜耳的Levitra/Staxyn(伐地那非)，在上市后并没有对西地那非、他达拉非构成太大竞争，其专利保护也将在2018/10/31到期，在大量仿制药即将涌入市场的情况下，Levitra的市场份额岌岌可危。EvaluatePharma预测2022的全球ED药物市场规模大约为32亿美元。

　　Sensipar

　　西那卡塞是一种钙敏感受体激动剂，最早在2004/3/8被FDA批准上市，目前获批的适应症包括接受透析慢性肾病患者的继发性甲状旁腺功能亢进、甲状旁腺腺癌患者的高钙血症、原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进患者的高钙血症。上市以来累计为安进贡献了99.42亿美元的收入。

Electronic Arts pledges free use for five accessibility patents

Electronic Arts pledges free use for five accessibility patents Recently, Electronic Arts (EA) announced a patent pledge that gives other companies and developers free access to five of its current accessibility-related patents and technology. The company promised not to enforce against any party for infringing any of the listed patents. Instead, EA hopes to encourage “innovation” and build new features that make video games more inclusive on a much larger scale by opening up the patents. Electronic Arts (EA) is an American video game company founded in 1982. The company owns many popular and famous games, such as The Sims, SimCity, Apex Legends, Madden NFL and FIFA. Each of the games has more than 30 or 50 million sales volume. Significantly, esports involves FIFA and Apex Legends into the event list. Apex Legends has up to 1 billion players, and it is so popular that it has a Switch version. Within the freely available patents, one of which grabs everyone’s attention -- Apex Legends’ ping system (patent No. US 11097189). The ping system in Apex Legends, which excellently allows players to make communication and teamwork quick and easy without hearing or speaking, has been praised both as an impressive alternative to voice chat and as a great accessibility feature for players with a variety of disabilities. The other patents include the technology widely used in the FIFA and Madden NFL. The innovations can automatically detect and modify colors (patent No. US 10118097 and CN 107694092) and contrast ratios (patent No. US 10878540) to improve gamers’ visibility with colorblindness and low vision. Furthermore, one of the patents relates to personalized sound technology, helping players with hearing issues by modifying or creating music based on their preferences (patent No. US 10790919). The code of the mentioned technology is published on EA’s GitHub, and it is open to all developers. Thus, the developers can use it or adapt it for their games without spending the costs to research. It is good that EA shares the patents for free use and aims to create an accessibility-increased gaming environment for players. However, it is not “unconditional” to use the listed patents. In the pledge, EA mentioned that it may terminate the promise for a specific party which files a patent infringement lawsuit or other patent proceedings against EA. We can see parts of EV’s ambition behind the announcement—to build a large game developer league and a community of shared interests.

Types of patents that are easily overlooked- Design Patent

Types of patents that are easily overlooked- Design Patent In recent years, as the public’s awareness of intellectual property has increased, people have begun to consciously use the patent law to protect their intellectual property rights. However, in the process of implementation, they often only focus on invention patent and utility model patent, and tend to ignore the protection of design patent. Recently, Midea sued Haotaitai for two models of CXW-300-D998 and CXW-300-D908 Haotaitai brand range hoods In the case of suspected infringement of its design patent (patent number: ZL201930621598.X), the Guangzhou Intellectual Property Court made a first-instance judgment after hearing that it determined that the two products of Haotaitai constituted infringement, and ordered it to immediately stop the infringement and compensate Midea, The company's economic losses and reasonable expenses totaled 360,000 yuan. In fact, appearance infringement cases have occurred from time to time before, such as: "Molly" blind box design patent case, "Siemens" switch design patent infringement dispute case received a compensation of 6 million yuan, three Casio watch design patents were infringed Received a compensation of 8.8 million yuan and so on. The reason why people ignore the protection of design patents, in the final analysis, is that they have insufficient knowledge of design patents. Today, let's take a look at what is protected by design patents and what rights protections can we apply for?

Protection period: The term of protection for design patent rights is 15 years, calculated from the date of filing. What are the conditions for applying for a design patent? The design should be aesthetically pleasing Appearance patents should be suitable for industrial applications The design patent application should be novel The design patent application should be inventiveness What are the advantages and functions of design patents? Protect the rights and interests of enterprises in product designs and fight against infringements in market competition. To enhance brand value, the quality and quantity of patents are the embodiment of the company's innovation ability and core competitiveness. Receive consumer recognition.

Colopl Settles Patent Infringement Lawsuit with Nintendo by Paying $30 Million

Colopl Settles Patent Infringement Lawsuit with Nintendo by Paying $30 Million This August, Nintendo and a game developer Colopl announced that they have settled for patent infringement regarding White Cat Project (Shironeko Project in Japanese), a smartphone game developed by Colopl. Although both companies did not publicly share exact details of the settlement, at least it is sure that Colopl agreed to pay 3.3 billion yen (about US$30.2 million) as the settlement fee for the proceedings, including the future license of Nintendo's patents. How did the battle begin? Being developed and published by a Japanese game developer, Colopl, White Cat Project is a free-to-play action role-playing game for Android and iOS systems. The mobile game was launched in July 2014 as well as got a television anime adaptation in 2020. It is incredibly popular to have more than 50 million downloads. Furthermore, the game is set to receive a Switch version titled "Shironeko New Project". In September 2016, Nintendo noted the Colopl's game and considered that the game had infringed on several of Nintendo's technology patents. The two companies communicated with each other for over a year; however, Nintendo did not accept the explanations from Colopl, and Nintendo filed a lawsuit against Colopl at the beginning of 2018. Nintendo claimed that Colopl infringed 6 of its patents. These patents protect touch-screen joystick functionality (patent no. JP3734820), multiplayer connectivity (patent no. JP5595991, JP6271692), confirmation screens in sleep mode (patent no. JP4010533), character attacks based on touch input locations (patent no. JP4262217), and a shadow effect placed on characters hidden behind the game geometry (patent no. JP3637031). These patents almost cover various ways of game technology, especially the patent JP5595991 and JP6271692. Their patent family is wide-reaching, and many divisional applications of the family are pending in Japan. They protect a communication game system and its related devices. It is not easy to detect the patent's existence and boundary since this kind of hardcore technique is so common in the gaming field and our daily lives. The five-year patent war has been settled. After a five-year dispute, the situation appeared to turn in Nintendo's favor as the Switch maker increased its monetary demands, which convinced Colopl to strike a deal that lets it use the disputed patents. Furthermore, a Switch version of White Cat Project remains in the works at Colopl. With the extraordinary losses of Colopl, the legal battle between the two companies came to an end.
