The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) issued a precedential decision today reversing a district court’s grant of Hikma Pharmaceuticals’ motion to dismiss Amarin Pharma, Inc.’s complaint against it for induced infringement. Amarin claimed Hikma induced infringement of its “icosapent ethyl” product, an ethyl ester of an omega-3 fatty acid commonly found in fish oils, marketed as Vascepa. U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas Judge Alan Albright was sitting by designation on the CAFC panel.
