Several companies have announced the settlement of patent litigation relating to Desloratadine Tablets, 5 mg (Clarinex). Pursuant to these settlements, the generic manufacturers will have the right to market Desloratadine Tablets, 5 mg, in the U.S. on July 1, 2012, or earlier in certain circumstances. Clarinex and Clarinex D will likely be switched to OTC availability prior to generic availability. 2. Lexapro’s '712 patent was originally slated to expire in December 2009, which included an additional six months of pediatric exclusivity. The U.S. Patent & Trademark Office granted the patent an 828-day extension in March 2006. Therefore, the estimated date for generic availability changed to March 2012. A recent patent litigation decision has also sided with Forest, upholding the validity of a key patent on Lexapro and keeping generics off the market until patent expiration in 2012. 3. Generic Plavix was approved 1/20/06 with paragraph IV certification giving Apotex 180-day exclusivity. Apotex launched their generic “at risk” on August 8, 2006. A preliminary injunction was granted on August 31, ordering Apotex to halt its sales of generic Plavix. The judge did not require Apotex to recall clopidogrel that had already been distributed. Bristol-Myers Squibb/Sanofi’s patent infringement trial against Apotex began January 22, 2007. 4. Mylan launched their first-time generic for Xopenex inhalation solution 0.25% with 180 day exclusivity in September 2009. In April 2008, Breath Limited received FDA approval for their generic Xopenex inhalation solution 0.021%, .0042%, and 0.0103%. Sepracor settled a patent dispute with them which will allow Breath to market generic versions of the drug beginning August 2012 with a 180-day exclusive license. In March 2009, Sepracor entered into a Settlement and License Agreement with Teva and Barr. The agreement permits Barr and Teva to launch generic versions of Xopenex inhalation solution dosages under terms of a non-exclusive license commencing on February 17, 2013. 5. Diovan received pediatric exclusivity, extending the drug's patent protection in the US until September 2012. 6. Patent litigation is ongoing between Teva and Merck with regard to Temodar. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit court is reviewing an appeal by Merck. If the Appeals court agrees that Merck’s patent for Temodar is unenforceable, Teva may launch their generic at any time.
