Author(s): Dr. Th. Bausch

In the June 2012 issue of "Patents and Licensing", Dr. Thorsten Bausch of HOFFMANN EITLE's chemistry department takes a look at an interesting patent case both from an EPO and a national litigation perspective. Specifically, he reports in some detail on the litigation and EPO oppositions/appeals surrounding a controlled-release dosage form of the drug oxycodone which has kept Europe's pharma IP lawyers busy for a couple of years.
