Amphastar receives favorable judgment in Momenta and Sandoz lawsuit

Amphastar Pharmaceuticals announced that the U.S. Court for the District of Massachusetts entered final judgment in favor of Amphastar in a lawsuit brought by Momenta Pharmaceuticals and Sandoz. The District Court held that Amphastar is "the prevailing party" in the case and affirmed the jury verdict, dated July 21, 2017, holding that the claims of Momenta's U.S. patent are invalid because the claims are not enabled and lack written description.

The District Court also determined that Momenta and Sandoz had waived their ability to enforce the patent.

The District Court also denied Momenta's and Sandoz's motion to dismiss Amphastar's antitrust lawsuit relating to Momenta's and Sandoz's anticompetitive conduct before the USP and the District Court provided a schedule for the antitrust lawsuit with a jury trial set for September 9, 2019.
