Comment! [Healthcare]
- Friday, December 14, 2012, 1:43 PM AstraZeneca (AZN +0.2%) says an Appeals Court has upheld the decision finding that the substance patent protecting Crestor is valid and enforceable.

- Tuesday, July 3, 2012, 11:24 AM The FTC has approved an amended final order settling charges that Teva's (TEVA +1.3%) proposed acquisition of Cephalon would have been anti-competitive for several generic drugs. The order requires Teva to sell the rights and assets related to a generic cancer pain drug and a generic muscle relaxant to Par Pharmaceuticals (PRX -0.6%), and allow PRX to sell a generic version of Cephalon's narcolepsy drug Provigil in 2012. Comment! [Healthcare, Global & FX]
- Wednesday, May 30, 2012, 12:48 PM Goldman says the court ruling against Par Pharmaceutical (PRX -1.3%) regarding patents covering Lovaza eliminates a key upside opportunity, adding that the extent of the impact on growth is unclear at this point.

The stock had rocketed higher on perceptions that the court ruling would clear the way for Amarin's AMR101 to launch and price without competition from generic Lovaza products. 2 Comments [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Tuesday, May 29, 2012, 6:44 PM A Delaware court has upheld two patents in favor of Pronova's heart drug Lovaza, ruling against Par Pharmaceutical (PRX) and Teva Pharmaceutical (TEVA).
