Kymab Wins Supreme Court Case Against Regeneron
Landmark UK Supreme Court Decision Invalidates Regeneron Patent Claims
Cambridge, UK; 24 June, 2020: Kymab, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing fully human monoclonal antibody therapeutics, is pleased to announce that the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom has held that all of the claims of two patents (European Patents EP(UK) 1 360 287 and EP(UK) 2 264 163, the ‘Murphy patents’) owned by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc that were asserted against Kymab are invalid. The Court’s decision upholds the February 2016 decision of the High Court trial judge, Mr. Justice Henry Carr to revoke the claims and reverses the Appeal Court’s determination that they were valid.
