For Immediate Release

United Therapeutics Wins Appeal in Dry Powder Inhaler Patent Litigation

SILVER SPRING, Md. and RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., July 24, 2023 -- United Therapeutics Corporation (Nasdaq: UTHR), a public benefit corporation, announced today that the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the district court decision in the patent litigation United Therapeutics brought against Liquidia Technologies, Inc. The Federal Circuit affirmed that Liquidia’s proposed Yutrepia™ product infringes a United Therapeutics’ patent, U.S. Patent No. 10,716,793 (the ’793 patent). As a result, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cannot grant Liquidia final approval for its Yutrepia product until expiration of the ’793 patent, May 14, 2027, except in certain circumstances discussed below.

The Federal Circuit affirmed the district court’s decision that Liquidia would induce infringement of various claims of the ’793 patent by marketing Yutrepia and that Liquidia failed to prove any claim of that patent invalid. The ‘793 patent relates to a method of administering treprostinil via inhalation.

The Federal Circuit also affirmed the district court’s decision that certain claims of another United Therapeutics patent, U.S. Patent No. 9,593,066 (the ’066 patent), are either invalid or not infringed by Liquidia. The ’066 patent relates to a method of making treprostinil, the active pharmaceutical ingredient in both Tyvaso® (treprostinil) Inhalation Solution and Tyvaso DPI® (treprostinil) Inhalation Powder.

“Today’s decision vindicates our position, as confirmed earlier by the district court, that Yutrepia is an infringing product. We will continue to vigorously defend our intellectual property,” said Shaun Snader, Vice President and Associate General Counsel – IP and Litigation at United Therapeutics.

Both parties have the opportunity to request rehearing by the Federal Circuit with respect to the adverse portions of the Federal Circuit’s affirmance.

Last year, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued a final written decision in an inter partes review (IPR) of the ’793 patent initiated by Liquidia finding all claims of the patent to be unpatentable. United Therapeutics appealed that decision to the Federal Circuit, and that appeal is pending. United Therapeutics expects that the PTAB decision will not affect the district court’s order barring FDA from granting final approval for Yutrepia unless all claims Liquidia was found to infringe are found invalid following exhaustion of all appeals.
