Patent case: Biogen MA Inc. vs. Sandoz B.V., Neuraxpharm Pharmaceuticals S.L. and Mylan B.V., Netherlands
March 21, 2025
Biogen has had mixed success in Europe in enforcing its patent on a second medical use of dimethylfumarate for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. In the present Dutch case, an attempt to obtain an injunction against three different generic companies resulted in a counterclaim for revocation of the (Dutch part of the) European patent. Biogen was not able to convince the court of the patent's validity.
