Teva Settles Generic Eloxatin Litigation

Patent infringement litigation pertaining to Teva's generic version of sanofi-aventis and Debiopharm's Eloxatin (oxaliplatin injection) has been dismissed by the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey pursuant to a settlement between the parties. The settlement, which provides for a full release of Teva, includes an injunction prohibiting Teva from selling its oxaliplatin injection product and a license to reenter the market at a later point in time. Teva anticipates continued sales of its oxaliplatin injection at least through June 30, 2010, and will resume shipping additional units August 9, 2012, subject to acceleration under certain contingencies.
