This case involves an alleged patent infringement surrounding the development of a novel drug delivery system. The system in question was designed to deliver medications steadily over an extended period of time through a uniquely formulated and designed transdermal patch. The patch was allegedly copied by one of the developing company’s primary competitors, which beat the original developer to market and aggressively marketed the product in order to dominate the industry.
My doctoral thesis focused on the development, fabrication and invention of a controlled transdermal drug delivery patch, which released drugs according to a specific electrical pulse. I published my thesis and an additional journal article on this topic. During the formulation of the patch, we considered various parameters such as thickness, tensile strength, folding endurance, uptake and release amount, update and release rate, in vitro permeation, and drug excipient compatibility. I am qualified to review your case because I am experienced with the design, inception, building, fabrication, testing, and application of transdermal patches. Since earning my PhD, I have collaborated with Harvard Medical School and the National Institutes of Health on research pertaining to drug delivery with nanomaterials.
