Pfizer, BioNTech Win Legal Dispute Against CureVac's UK COVID Patents

MT Newswires Live10-08

Pfizer (PFE) and BioNTech (BNTX) successfully invalidated two patents held by CureVac (CVAC) in a ruling by London's High Court on Tuesday.

The lawsuit, filed in September 2022, relates to messenger RNA technology used in their COVID-19 vaccine.

"The decision of the UK Court is an important one as we believe that these patents do not meet the requirements for patentability and should never have been granted," said a BioNTech spokesperson.

Pfizer and CureVac did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment.
