  • 新藥物自研發到上市平均耗費時間10至15年和8.68億美元,藥廠在上市後,可在專利期間內以獨佔市場之姿銷售全球,故獲得專利是製藥產業獲利的基礎。然而,一旦專利期屆滿,學名藥廠競爭湧現,造成原廠藥售價跌降至原價的十分之一。如何有效地在專利期限內增加保護範圍,申請專利的策略及方向成為關鍵因素。
    近十年發展快速的生物製劑藥物,在專利申請上有別於以往小分子藥物僅以單一專利保護發明,而是在專利母案之後,以不同類別之延續案形態多方位擴展其專利範圍。基於以上現象,本論文自2013年藥品銷售排行中挑選三種生物製劑,探討國際藥廠對於生物製劑專利申請之策略,特別針對延續案申請類型與專利標的進行分析,除了具體列出不同國際藥廠申請專利架構之態樣,亦歸納申請延續案之手法包含:(1)專利標的轉換、(2)組合藥物使用、(3)治療步驟順序變換、(4)特殊序列或來源的組合、(5)新適應症開發。
    另一方面則藉由單一個案分析的方式,進一步研究生物製劑申請專利延續案過程中,申請人與美國專利局之答辯資料,整理審查委員易核駁之理由與申請人回應策略。並且探究該藥物之專利訴訟,釐清相似生物製劑間之爭點與法院判決。本文多方面探究生物製劑藥廠在申請延續案的方式,建立初步分析國際藥廠在生物製劑之專利延續案申請方向。


    Developing a new drug would take almost 10 to 15 years averagely and costs averagely $ 868 million. The pharmaceutical company will monopolize the market during the certain period.Patent right protection secures the profit of pharmaceutical industry. However, once the patents expired, the pharmaceutical competition would emerge and cause the drug price fell down to one-tenth of the original one due to the generic pharmaceutical companies appeared. Thus, the effective filing strategy for patents becomes a key factor to assure maximum advantages during the patent protection period.

    The biologics have been rapidly developed in the recent decade. The patent filing strategy of the biologics is generally different from small molecule drugs by single patent protection. The biologics usually submitted different types of patent to extend their patent scopes. Based on the mentioned reasons, threebiologics selected from the best-selling drugs in 2013 have been invesgated.The practical filing strategies of patent for each biologic including the different types of continuation applications and contents are discussed in this thesis. It not only realizes the aspects of various patent application architectures, but also concludes the five methods for filing process. The first one isswitch the targets as process and manufacture patents in turn. The second is combination of plural drug uses. The third is transformation of treatment steps. The forth is combination of special sequences or different sources. And the last is development of new indications.

    According to the case studies, the respondent information over the process of related continuation applications of biologics during the the United States Patent Office examination would be further discussed. Meanwhile, the drug's patent litigation and the points of dispute between the similar biological agents are identified. In this thesis, it preliminarily analyzed the continuation applications’ filing strategies of some pharmaceutical companies. Based on the results, it proposed a helpful suggestion of patent filing direction of continuation application for reference.
