American Bar Association

Authors

In biosimilars litigation, the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act’s “patent dance” is only the beginning. Chapter 8 of Biosimilars Litigation and Client Counseling, co-authored by Principal Louis Fogel, explores the high-stakes world of “second wave” infringement actions.

This chapter explains how the biosimilar applicant’s notice of commercial marketing triggers a new phase of litigation, which is often faster-paced and less predictable than the first.

Strategic timing and regulatory insight are critical as parties navigate overlapping litigation and market entry.
