The rule of thumb in biotech is that it costs around $1 billion to bring a new therapy from lab to market. Protecting that investment is the patent system. But what if part of your product is not made by your contract manufacturer, but by the people who are giving it to patients? Ie, their doctors.
We explore an example in Australia where this push-pull when the years and money required to develop a groundbreaking new therapy goes up against medical professionals' desire to help their patients.
And we also take a look at what the future might hold, based on what people are protecting today.
In episode 5 of NUKED we speak with FB Rice patent attorneys, senior associates Brittany Ashton and David Herman about what they're seeing in the tea leaves of patent application filings.
