　　在全球6000亿美元的创新药市场中，中国只占六十分之一。一边是亟待满足的巨大市场需求，一边却是创新药的审批积压和研发进展乏力。近年来，政策和资本积极推动，但新药研发却被诟病为“简单重复”，肿瘤等领域新药研发“扎堆”，而儿童用药等门类却显得相对冷清。

　　在医药投资领域，新药10年磨一剑几乎是常态，创新药也成为一场资本的冒险游戏。在资本不断流入之后，药物研发“不差钱”，但硬币的另一面则是资本不均衡现象，研发早期投资者寥寥，而后期可预见新药上市的阶段，大量资本则蜂拥而上。随之而来的则是投资泡沫。也有业内人士表示，适当的泡沫或许有益于产业，但这也意味着更多机构跟着风潮去投资，资本的专业和有序成为业界呼声。

　　监管机构和大量知名药企将最关心的问题设在了医药创新，而创新药成为最受热议的话题。

　　创新药市场4万亿元的大蛋糕正在等待着切分，但中国药企却颇显乏力。

　　按照世界各主要医药研发国家创新贡献分布的三个梯队中，中国目前尚处于第三梯队，对全球医药创新的贡献小于5%。

　　此外，在医药创新布局从低端精益仿制到中端渐进性创新直至塔尖的原始创新三个领域中，中国的医药创新还未攀升到塔顶，目前的医药创新的“质”还有待提升，多为渐进式创新。目前新药的概念从“中国型”转化为“全球型”，意味所需新药不是简单重复做仿制药。

　　恰逢创新药市场蓬勃发展的“风口”，与国人生活息息相关的中国医药产业“瞄准”了从医药大国到医药强国的发展目标。

　　据《构建可持续发展的中国医药创新生态系统》(以下简称《报告》)显示，2015年全世界创新药市场近6000亿美元，换算成人民币大约是4万亿元左右。

　　值得一提的是，创新药研发在中国医药中也扮演着越来越重要的角色，不论是政策、人才、投资都对创新药产生了较好的驱动作用，中国业内人士在顶级期刊发表的文章数量和国际药物专利申请的数量迅速增加。

　　不过，在这块千亿量级的市场中，中国占据的市场却不足100亿美元，其中在中国首次获批上市的19个创新产品贡献不到5亿美元，且这些产品销售全部来自于中国市场。

　　从现在的政策要求来看，仿制药和创新药其实在经济成本上的差距并不大，企业研发创新药的瓶颈还是源于技术的缺失，要做创新一定是源于较为深厚的基础研究。仿制药都用速度制胜，但是创新药没有统一的标准，需要自己苦练“内功”精心琢磨，而因为新药研发的不确定性和性价比的问题，很多药企不愿意做创新药。目前国内的靶点大多是先在海外找到，然后在这个基础上进行研究，都是希望快速产出产品却缺乏本质的研究，这也是基础性研究薄弱的困境之一。

　　总之，中国新药创新要做“难、孤、防”的药物，不要“捏最软的柿子”，要把有限的资金放在最重要的地方。

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? Design patent definition: Article 2 of the "Patent Law", design patent, refers to a new design that is aesthetically pleasing and suitable for industrial applications based on the shape, pattern, or combination of products, and the combination of color, shape, and pattern. Protected range: The shape of the product; the pattern of the product; the shape and pattern of the product; the shape and color of the product; the pattern and color of the product; the shape, pattern and color of the product. 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. If a company's new product appearance is filed for a patent in a timely manner, its appearance design will enjoy the exclusive right. Nowadays, consumers often choose products with trendy and beautiful appearance when buying their products. Applying for a design patent is a necessary condition for applying for a high-tech enterprise.

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.
