Momentum Events "International Congress on Paragraph IV Litigation," New York, September 23-24

Imminent blockbuster patent expiration…new regulatory hurdles and procedural requirements created by the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation and America Invents Act…constantly evolving caselaw – these are but a few of the many issues currently impacting on Paragraph IV litigation.  An important litigation tool that can solidify a patentee’s dominant position in the marketplace or open the flood gates to generic competition, Paragraph IV disputes can offer a great benefit to while simultaneously posing an incredible risk. With hundreds of millions of dollars hanging in the balance pending the outcome of a dispute, counsel cannot afford to show up for trial based on a Paragraph IV challenge ill prepared to succeed.

Specifically focused on addressing the unique litigation challenges presented by the Hatch Waxman Paragraph IV dispute mechanism, the International Congress on Paragraph IV Litigation will provide attendees with the opportunity to network with your in-house peers representing both brand name and generic manufacturers as they share with you firsthand insights and proven litigation strategies for tackling key litigation challenges in Paragraph IV disputes.

Learn what steps to take to evaluate your client’s potential exposure prior to bringing a Paragraph IV challenge as well as responsive strategies for effectively asserting your position and assessing the strength of the patents at issue. Hear what theories have been most effective in achieving successful results for parties on both sides as you benchmark your current litigation strategies against those of the leaders of the Hatch-Waxman litigation bar.
