  MESSAGE FROM CO-CHAIRS  
               
   

Dear AMCHAM Members,

Please join the AMCHAM Legal Affairs Committee at this breakfast meeting to learn more about commercialization strategies for life sciences companies in preparation for entry of a biologic or biosimilar into the US market. Steve and Kristel will focus on the use of IPRs and ex parte reexaminations to clear patent hurdles before commercializing a biosimilar product, procedural aspects and advantages and disadvantages of each of these proceedings, the timing of initiating such proceedings, and case studies relating to successful biosimilar IPRs. This session should be useful for companies considering the most cost-effective legal strategies for facilitating early biosimilar market entry in the US, and lawyers and executives seeking to understand the cost and risks associated with patent challenges.

Best regards,
?
