Precision medicine has stirred the excitement of patients, physicians, industry, entrepreneurs, and investors — it is already a market that is worth tens of billions of dollars with very rapid growth expected. But the future of
precision medicine heavily depends on the intellectual property frameworks that apply to its various forms. In order to chart this future, we compare recent patent case law in the US and Europe in three areas of precision medicine: (1) biomarkers and nature-based products; (2) diagnostics; and (3) algorithms, big data, and AI. We explain how today’s law will affect tomorrow’s innovation.
