Sentences handed down in Genentech secrets case

Oct 18, 2022

Former Genentech scientist Xanthe Lam and her husband Allen Lam were each sentenced to six months imprisonment and fines of over $10,000 for their role in the Genentech/JHL Biotech trade secrets scandal.  The Lams plead guilty to stealing confidential intellectual property relating to Genentech’s Rituxan® (rituximab), Herceptin® (trastuzumab) and Avastin® (bevacizumab), passing the information onto JHL Biotech to aid in its biosimilar development.
