EU SUPPLEMENTARY PROTECTION CERTIFICATES - MARCH 2019 AN EXCEPTION TO SPC PROTECTION FOR MEDICINES Support to generic pharmaceutical producers provided by the EU The European Union is adopting new rules that introduce an exception to Supplementary Protection Certificate (SPC) protection for medicines, allowing EU-based manufacturers of generic and biosimilar pharmaceuticals to manufacture for export to non-EU countries during the term of the Supplementary Protection Certificate. Under existing EU rules, a medicine protected by an SPC has intellectual property rights that effectively extend patent protection beyond the normal 20-year term of the patent, up to an additional five years. The proposed exceptions will allow under certain circumstances, the export to non-EU countries of generics or biosimilars during the last six months of an SPC, but only when those generics or biosimilars are produced exclusively for export to countries where there is no protection of the originator’s drug. The new exceptions will also include an exception for stockpiling purposes during the last six months of the SPC validity before the SPC expires. This important development follows a long debate between the innovative pharmaceutical industry and generic/biosimilar manufacturers on the impact of intellectual property on access, medicines prices and jobs in the EU. These new EU Rules have to be submitted for formal adoption to the European Parliament and the Council. The EU is considering that the regulation will affect only SPCs that are applied for on or after the date of entry into force of the regulation, or applied for but only come into force after a set future date.

BREXIT AND IP – UPDATE 21 JAN 2019 BREXIT AND IP – UPDATE 21 JAN 2019 Brexit – Patent Implications Although it may be obvious to those in the know, the UK’s exit from the EU will not affect the current European patent system, which is governed by the European Patent Convention rather than the EU. As such, whatever the outcome of Brexit, UK individuals and businesses will continue to be able to apply to the European Patent Office for patent protection and European patents will continue to apply to the UK. Existing European patents that have been pursued in the UK will also be unaffected. Moreover, Murgitroyd’s European patent attorneys, wherever they are based, will moreover continue to be able to represent applicants before the EPO. You may ask what effect Brexit might have on the Unified Patent Court (UPC), which as you may know is intended to be a court having exclusive competence in respect of European patents and European patents with unitary effect. In this respect, the UK ratified the Unified Patent Court Agreement on 26 April 2018 and it is our understanding is that the UK intends to stay in the Unified Patent Court and unitary patent system even if the UK leaves the EU. As regards the granting of Supplementary Protection Certificates (SPCs) for certain patents relating to medicinal or plant protection products, while the UK remains a full member of the EU, businesses can continue to apply for and be granted SPCs using the current SPC system. Our understanding is that once the UK leaves the EU, UK businesses will still be able to apply for SPCs in all remaining EU Member States under the existing system.
