　　9月12日，云南省药品采购平台发布《2017年云南省关于企业申请降价的公示》，其中康德乐、正大天晴、拜耳等三家公司主动申请其生产的药品降价，部分产品降幅高达66%。

　　2017年以来已经有安徽省、浙江省、云南省、甘肃省、辽宁省上海市以及内蒙古等多个省市陆续公布部药企申请主动降价的情况。

　　毋庸置疑，外资药企的价格压力很大。自2015年葛兰素史克(GSK)对其旗下贺普丁、贺维力和韦瑞德三个品种开启“以降价换市场”的在华策略后，以价换量已经成为制药企业在中国进行市场较量的套路之一。

　　进入2017年后，这一趋势更加明显。以罗氏为例，2017年3月至今罗氏已对在华干扰素类品牌销售冠军聚乙二醇干扰素a-2a注射液(商品名：派罗欣)于甘肃、内蒙古和安徽省陆续在原中标价的基础上主动申请降价。

　　同时，原研药为应对专利到期的意图也很明显。如2016年爱可泰隆产品波生坦在专利悬崖之际主动降价80%。业界猜测，此次拜耳的利伐沙班在几个省份相继降价也有此原因。利伐沙班作为独家产品，在国内上市后销售持续上升，但眼下国内市场日趋激烈，除了跨国药企的直接竞品，还有大波国内企业正在进行仿制药申报，而利伐沙班在中国的专利在2020年就要到期。

　　对于国内企业来讲，愿意主动降价也并非只是随大流。比如此次在云南省申请降价的南京制药厂，其注射用培美曲塞二钠价格从3800元/瓶将至2100元/瓶，降幅为44.7%。据了解，该产品市场竞争激烈，国内至少有十几家竞争者，降价有可能换得更大的市场。另一家知名企业正大天晴，除了此次在云南省申请降价的注射用地西他滨，早前其抗肿瘤仿制药甲磺酸伊马替尼胶囊也曾调整价格，不同规格降价25%～30%。业界分析，此举目的在于以低价优势对继续冲击原研药“格列卫”。

　　此外，当前这种企业主动降低药品价格的现象与早前国家医保谈判也不无关系。随着医保谈判品种的相继落地，相关的品种也势必要做出相应的调价举动。

　　如江苏康缘药业生产的用于治疗缺血性脑卒中药品银杏二萜内酯葡胺注射液价格从612.85元/支将至316元/支，降幅约为48%。值得注意的是，银杏二萜内酯葡胺注射液是早前成功入围国家医保目录的36个谈判品种之一，在被纳入“国家医保目录”后，医保支付标准316元/支，这个价格正是此次康缘降价后的价格。

　　无论降价的目的何在，无论其能否达到企业想要的效果，就目前国内整体医药市场来说，降价潮已经形成。百姓只需翘首以待，而企业则需寻找突破口以从其他途径获得更好的收益。

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.

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.
