Moderna has filed a lawsuit against Pfizer

Η Moderna ανακοίνωσε ότι μηνύει την Pfizer και την συνεργάτιδα Γερμανική εταιτεία BioNTech για παραβίαση διπλωμάτων ευρεσιτεχνίας στην ανάπτυξη του πρώτου εμβολίου για τον Covid-19.

Η Αμερικάνικη φαρμακευτική εταιρεία ισχυρίζεται ότι η τεχνολογία mRNA που ανέπτυξε πριν από την πανδημία αντιγράφηκε. Η μήνυση, η οποία ζητά απροσδιόριστες οικονομικές απολαβές, κατατέθηκε στις ΗΠΑ και τη Γερμανία.

Pfizer said the company has not yet received the legal documents and was unable to comment at this time.

In a statement, Moderna said Pfizer/BioNTech copied two of its proprietary formulas. The first breach involved an mRNA structure that Moderna says its scientists began developing in 2010 but were the first to validate in human trials in 2015.

The second violation concerns the coding of the spike protein on the outside of the virus itself.

"We are filing these lawsuits to protect the innovative mRNA technology platform that we pioneered, invested billions of dollars in creating and patented in the decade leading up to the Covid-19 pandemic," said Moderna CEO Stephane Bancel.
