Federal Circuit Court rules on patent litigation involving Prandin® (repaglinide)
Bagsværd, Denmark & Plainsboro, NJ 18 June 2013 - Today, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit partially affirmed a 2011 District Court decision, with a 2-1 ruling that a claim in a Novo Nordisk patent related to the use of repaglinide in combination with metformin for the treatment of type 2 diabetes was invalid. This decision favors approval and launch of a generic repaglinide product.
