Alvotech denies AbbVie’s claims of trade secret piracy

Mar 26, 2021

Alvotech has disputed AbbVie’s claim filed in the Northern District of Illinois last week relating to AbbVie’s allegations of wrongdoing in the development of Alvotech’s biosimilar adalimumab product.  Alvotech notes “AbbVie waited over three years from the purported date of the alleged wrongdoing to file its case, doing so after the ex-AbbVie employee had already left Alvotech and without naming the ex-AbbVie employee as a defendant”, suggesting that these latest accusations may be part of AbbVie’s broader strategy to delay biosimilar competition.
