The case involves a licensing dispute centered in the state of Georgia involving the formulation and testing of a drug that treats neurologic conditions. The drug is a combination of two existing medications, which have been combined into a single therapy. The patent holder and manufacturer of these existing medications claimed that they should receive a greater amount of royalty payments for the new drug. The manufacturer of the new therapy has claimed that the royalty and licensing payments made to the original inventor of the component drugs are sufficient.

Expert Witness Response E-028787
I have over 20 years of experience in biomedical patent licensing and negotiation. I am a CLP. I have served as an expert on pharmaceutical IP as chair of a large corporation’s IP Committee, and I have experience directing Pharma IP due diligence for in- and out-licensing of patents. Regarding licensing, I have prepared and advised rebuttals including differentiating claims from art cited as overlapping or preventing freedom to operate. The bulk of my licensing and intellectual property management and optimization experience is in the CNS-psychiatry and neurology-space. I am an IP strategist, now consulting with biotech companies and research institutions to strengthen, expand, and license their IP portfolios.
