Third case against Apotex filed for biosimilars of Neupogen® and Neulasta®

Aug 7, 2018

Amgen files third suit against Apotex based on aBLAs for biosimilars of Neupogen® (filgrastim) and Neulasta® (pegfilgrastim).  US patent 9,856,287 was issued on 2 January 2018 and was not included in earlier ‘patent dances’.  With three additional pending patent applications in this family, it is likely that further litigation will result.
