Teva sues Novartis, Momenta over Copaxone patent
By Bill Berkrot
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd sued Swiss drugmaker Novartis AG and Momenta Pharmaceuticals Inc on Thursday, accusing them of infringing patents on its multiple sclerosis drug Copaxone.
Israel-based Teva had said in July it intended to sue after the Sandoz unit of Novartis applied to U.S. regulators to sell a generic version of the medicine.
The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, claims that any generic version of Copaxone infringes patents that Teva contends are valid and enforceable.
It's not good enough to just see top-line results ; sometimes the nitty gritty details -- only seen once the full results are presented at a conference -- are more important.
