News comes from our good friend and occasional contributor Mike Snodin (Avidity IP) that an article of his has recently been published in the
Journal of Intellectual Property Law &
Practice (
JIPLP). The article reviews, analyses
and comments upon the decisions in Cases C-443/12 (
Actavis v Sanofi), C-484/12
(
Georgetown University) and C-493/12 (
Eli Lilly v HGS). While noting areas
that have been clarified and speculating upon strategies that may now represent
"best practice" in the light of the decisions, the article also
points out the many areas of uncertainty that still remain -- or that have been
generated by the decisions.

JIPLP has proved to be a rich source of articles and current intelligence notes on SPCs since it was launched at the end of 2005. Could it be anything to do with the fact that this blogger is its editor? At any rate, you can get an idea of the range items addressing SPCs by clicking
here. Mike has previously published in JIPLP, as have many other readers of or contributors to this weblog.
