Sutent Sales in Small-Molecule Cancer Therapies Segment to Reach USD 2.50 Billion in 2023, Forecasts Visiongain

14 Jan 2013 • by Natalie Aster

In May 2010, Mylan Pharmaceuticals reportedly filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic form of Sutent and challenging on various grounds the Sutent basic patent, which expires in 2021, and two other patents, which expire in 2020 and 2021.

In June 2010, Pfizer filed a suit against Mylan Pharmaceuticals in the US district court for the district of Delaware asserting the infringement of those three patents; it is reported. In 2011 sales of the drug were $1.19bn. Sutent became a blockbuster in 2010, when sales of the drug reached $1.07bn, up from $0.96bn in 2009, an increase of 11%.
