Court Finds in Favor of Mylan in Patent Infringement Suit Related to Certain Teva Copaxone® Patents

Mylan Inc.

today announced that Judge Katherine Forrest of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York has dismissed Teva's

lawsuit alleging that Mylan's Abbreviated New Drug Application ("ANDA") for its generic version of Copaxone® (glatiramer acetate) would infringe four patents held by Teva (U.S. Patent Nos. 66,514,938, 7,074,580, 7,163,802, and 7,615,359). Mylan is appealing to the Federal Circuit a separate decision involving other Teva patents (U.S. Patent Nos. 5,800,808, 5,981,589, 6,048,898, 6,054,430, 6,342,476, 6,362,161, 6, 620,847, 6,939,539 and 7,199,098), which were upheld by retired Judge Barbara Jones of the Southern District of New York. Oral argument on Mylan's appeal was held on May 7, 2013. Mylan anticipates that a favorable appellate decision on these patents would clear Mylan for launch upon receipt of final regulatory approval.
