For readers following the the Biologic Patent Transparency Act, DrugPatentWatch has recently been cited in an article describing the act as “A Solution in Search of a Problem.”
In his article, Patent Docs’ Kevin Noonan explains the motivations to amend the way in which the Foood and Drug Administration approves biologic drugs. He argues that one of the justifications for the proposed legal changes — that it addresses a challenge faced by biosimilar applicants in identifying patents covering drugs is weakened because “…these concerns fly in the face of available outlets (for example, www.drugpatentwatch.com) that has this information readily available.”
