Forward had previously won a number of legal cases in the U.S. to prevent patent-infringement on dimethyl fumarate (DMF) and recently demanded royalties from Biogen for its Tecfidera. Following the battles, Biogen made a $1.25 billion bid to acquire the patent in January, but Forward refused to accept, prompting Biogen to pursue legal action. The latest ruling could free Biogen to market Tecfidera without restriction.
