WEBINAR VIDEO | What do the CJEU’s decisions on parallel trade of medicines mean for your company?
December 21, 2022

At this additional Christmas edition, the IP specialists in our Life Sciences team discuss the CJEU’s latest decisions on the parallel trade of medicines, and what these decisions mean in practice for your company.

On 17 November 2022, the CJEU delivered essentially two decisions on the parallel trade of medicines. The first concerned the rebranding of generic medicines to the branded reference medicine (in joined cases C-253/20 and C-254/20), and about which we published a blog on 24 November 2022. The second addressed the impact of anti-tampering devices on the possibility, and objective necessity, to rebox (in C-224/20 and C-147/20), and about which we published a blog on 2 December 2022.
