UTHR files patent suit against Liquidia seeking to block YUTREPIA commercialization
Liquidia Corp
- UTHR sued Liquidia on May 9, 2025 alleging infringement of the '782 patent and seeking an injunction against YUTREPIA launch if FDA-approved.
- UTHR is not seeking an injunction against the FDA; PDUFA goal date for YUTREPIA remains May 24, 2025.
- The '782 patent is from the same family as the '793 patent, which was invalidated by the PTAB and upheld through appeals.
- Liquidia CEO states they expect to invalidate these claims as done previously with the '793 patent.
