Incyte10-Q: Litigation material

Supreme Court ruling on "reverse payments" complicates patent litigation settlements.

What happened

A recent Supreme Court ruling creates uncertainty and difficulty in settling patent litigation with generic drug companies. This could lead to increased legal costs and a higher risk of earlier-than-expected generic competition for Incyte's products.

Incyte 10-Q

Filing excerpt

The Court rejected the “scope of the patent” test and ruled that settlements involving “reverse payments” from brand-name drug companies to generic drug companies should be analyzed under the rule of reason. This ruling may create uncertainty and make it more difficult to settle patent litigation if a company seeking to manufacture a generic version of one of our products challenges the patents covering that product prior to the expiration date of those patents.
