Deep dives

The Federal Circuit hearing focused on the PTAB ruling and its implications for the commercialization of Liquidity's drug

The recent Federal Circuit hearing revolved around the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) ruling on the patent infringement case between Liquidity and United Therapeutics. Liquidity had won the case at PTAB, but United Therapeutics appealed the decision. The hearing aimed to determine whether the PTAB ruling should be affirmed, reversed, or remanded. If the ruling is affirmed, Liquidity will be able to commercialize their pulmonary hypertension drug in 2024. If it is reversed, Liquidity will face an injunction preventing them from commercializing the drug. The outcome will have significant implications for Liquidity's business and the patent validity of their drug.
