"...in the long run, the administration's lower-profile efforts to strengthen #IP protections may actually prove even more beneficial for American companies, workers and consumers than its much-touted #tariff policy."
- Fmr. Deputy #USTR Amb. Jeffrey Gerrish and fmr. #USPTO Director Andrei Iancu
The creation of #interpartesreviews was a response to the state of #patent litigation at that time, including abuses of the patent system.
The last 12 years have shown the damage that is caused by allowing repeated reviews at the #USPTO, which goes too far in undermining the certainty of a patent.
Register for the 2026 LeadershIP conference!
On 3/25, #policymakers and industry leaders will gather to discuss some of the most pressing #IP-related topics.
Speakers include C4IP Co-Chair and former #USPTO Director Andrei Iancu, as well as C4IP Board Member and former Federal Judge Paul Michel.
The claim that #patent abuse delays #generic entry and therefore drives up drug costs is false.
In fact, a #USPTO study indicates no correlation between the total number of #patents for a product and the length of exclusivity.
Get the facts:
Recently, we co-hosted a virtual roundtable on the administration's #intellectualproperty and #trade policy, featuring #USPTO Deputy Director Coke Stewart, Deputy U.S. Trade Representative Rick Switzer, C4IP Co-Chair Andrei Iancu, and former Deputy U.S. Trade Representative Jeffrey Gerrish.

"Simply quantifying raw numbers of #patents and exclusivities is an imprecise way to measure the #intellectualproperty landscape of a drug product."
This finding from a #USPTO study contradicts claims that these companies unfairly "game" the patent system to prolong market exclusivity.
