I previously blogged (here and here) about the pending Hatch-Waxman lawsuit between Exelixis ($EXEL) and MSN Pharmaceuticals in connection with MSN’s prospective generic for Cabometyx®. The case has been barreling towards trial in May of this year, which would theoretically provide insight into how soon Cabometyx® may face generic competition. This trial date is important because the 30-month stay is scheduled to expire in November 2022. However, a current dispute over scheduling has called into doubt if the trial in May will proceed, and even if it does, if it will provide certainty on MSN’s entry.
