IP data of pharmaceuticals in Germany

Patent expiries of pharmaceuticals often have great economic importance. In many cases these loses of patent protection are associated with significant revenue losses for the originator as generic competitors push for the market. For other stakeholders in the healthcare system, such as doctors, patients or health insurance, they might bring alternatives to the original product at reduced prices. For manufacturers and developers, the predicted patent expirations are important in order to start in good time with the development of generic medicines and start the approval process.

Intellectual property rights in the chemical and pharmaceutical sector are a particular focus of InPharmation. As an example, the table of expiry data in 2026 are listed. In general, pharmaceuticals are protected from generic competition by several industrial property rights (patents, SPCs, trademarks, designs, data protection). This list represents only a selection of data and indicates a possible generic entry after this date. No guarantee can be given for completeness or correctness of the data
