    Celebrating 20 Years of the Registered Community Design

    On 1 April 2023, we celebrate two decades of the Registered Community Design (RCD) and its role in fostering innovation and creativity in the European Union. To mark the occasion, the EUIPO will simultaneously unveil a new and user-friendly filing for design registration (new RCD e-filing), making it simpler than ever for users to protect their intellectual property. History On 1 April 2003, the EUIPO opened its doors to the registration of the new registered Community designs. The RCD has proved to be a game changer for businesses across the European Union. Previously, businesses had to go through a cumbersome and expensive process for registering their designs in each EU country separately, but with the RCD, businesses were able to protect their designs across all EU Member States with a single filing.

    Court to Decide How Specific a Patent Disclosure Must Be

    Two pharmaceutical giants head to the Supreme Court in a dispute over a patent covering cholesterol-lowering antibodies on March 20. In Amgen Inc. v. Sanofi, the justices will consider whether Amgen’s patent is too broad to be valid under federal patent rules. Amgen has patents on monoclonal antibodies that lower LDL, or “bad,” cholesterol. The antibodies work by binding to a particular protein in the body (PCSK9), which then blocks that protein from destroying receptors that extract cholesterol from the bloodstream. Amgen and other companies already have patents covering particular antibodies defined by their amino acid sequences. Those narrow patents are not in dispute here. Instead, this case involves a broader patent Amgen obtained, which covers any monoclonal antibody that binds to particular sweet spots on the PCSK9 protein and blocks that protein from binding to LDL receptors. In other words, the patent covers a genus defined by how the antibodies work. The patent gives details for 26 example antibodies and specifies how to run further processes to identify others from a pool of potentially thousands or even millions of candidates. However, the patent also goes far beyond those 26 examples, covering any antibody within the broad genus.
