Vasil Kisil & Partners represented Astellas Pharma
Vasil Kisil & Partners represented Astellas Pharma in an administrative case related to unlawful registration of a similar medicinal product (generic) with the Ministry of Health of Ukraine.
The dispute resulted from the breach of the exclusive rights of Astellas to the registration information attributable to Prograf proprietary medicinal product, in particular from registration of a generic without company’s consent to the use of its registration information regarding the efficiency and safety of the reference product.
The court has declared that the state registration of the generic drug undertaken by the Ministry of Health of Ukraine was unlawful due to misuse of the registration information regarding the proprietary product efficiency and safety.
Vasil Kisil & Partners team consisted of senior counsellor Vadym Belyanevych, associate Oleg Kachmar and associate Daria Abulova.
