Patent Litigation Team Named ALM Litigator of the Week Runners-Up

August 16, 2024, AmLaw Litigation Daily

A Covington patent litigation team was named Litigator of the Week runner-up in AmLaw Litigation Daily for a major victory for AstraZeneca. Wyeth alleged that AstraZeneca’s sale of Tagrisso, a drug approved to treat certain types of non-small cell lung cancer, induced infringement of two of its patents and sought hundreds of millions of dollars in damages. After a five-day jury trial in May and a bench trial just a few weeks later, U.S. District Judge Matthew Kennelly determined as a matter of law that Wyeth’s patents are invalid for lack of written description and lack of enablement, resulting in a victory for AstraZeneca.

The Covington team on the matter includes Chris Sipes, Megan Keane, Einar Stole, Jason Fowler, Kaveh Saba, Eric Sonnenschein, Priscilla Dodson, Ashley Winkler, Alex Trzeciak, Melissa Keech, Robert McMullen, Elaine Nguyen, Toby Ma, Danute Abrishami, and Mark Gelsinger.
