Canadian firm Aurinia Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: AUPH) and India’s Sun Pharmaceutical (BSE: 524715) have moved quickly to settle a patent dispute in the US market.

The firms have filed a joint motion to terminate an inter partes review which was initiated by the US Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) after a petition was filed by Sun Pharma in the summer of 2022.

The dispute relates to a US patent held by Aurinia for Lupkynis (voclosporin), which would extend the product’s exclusivity in the USA to 2037.
