Why U.S. States Need Their Own Cannabis Industry Banks, Christoph Henkel, Randall K. Johnson
Why U.S. States Need Their Own Cannabis Industry Banks, Christoph Henkel, Randall K. Johnson

The legal cannabis trade is the fastest growing industry in the United States. In 2019, about 48.2 million Americans used the drug at least once. As such, it is easy to see why the legal cannabis trade may generate annual revenues exceeding $30 billion in Fiscal Year 2022 alone.
One inconvenient truth, however, is that the parties to any cannabis trade may face a range of difficulties due to conflicts between federal and state laws. These difficulties include the fact that many financial institutions are reluctant to handle cannabis proceeds. One reason is that a lack of alignment in terms …

Stem cell-based regenerative therapies hold the potential to address a host of health concerns, particularly congenital, age-related, and trauma-induced injuries, and diseases involving organ and tissue degeneration, conditions that have proven refractory to conventional drug-based approaches. For the time being, however, there is little in the way of solid evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of most cell-based therapeutic approaches (with the notable exception of hematopoietic stem cells used to treat diseases of the blood and immune system). This Holman Report begins with an overview of the current uncertain regulatory status of regenerative medicine in the U.S., including several draft …
Unpredictability In Patent Law And Its Effect On Pharmaceutical Innovation, Christopher M. Holman
Unpredictability In Patent Law And Its Effect On Pharmaceutical Innovation, Christopher M. Holman
Faculty Works
In recent years, the major innovator pharmaceutical companies have experienced two pronounced and significant trends: a decreasing output of innovative new drugs and cutbacks in research and development (R&D) investment. The two phenomena probably are not unrelated and raise significant concerns for a society intent upon providing affordable health care for an aging population. While the root causes of these trends are complex and diverse, we should not overlook the critical role patents play in creating the necessary incentives for the substantial investment required to develop pharmaceutically-interesting chemical compounds into actual drugs and to take them through the clinical trials …

Misplaced Fears In The Legislative Battle Over Affordable Biotech Drugs, David E. Adelman, Christopher M. Holman

Much like tort reform, the debate over recently enacted legislation on biotech drugs — and particularly regulatory supplements to patent protection — has taken on a significance that dwarfs its impact on prescription drug expenditures. Under the Health Care Reform legislation, Congress enacted two major reforms: First, creation of an abbreviated Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval process for follow-on biologics (FOBs), which are the analogues of generics for biotech drugs. Second, establishment of a twelve-year “data exclusivity” period in which clinical testing data collected by brand-name innovators cannot be used by producers of FOBs to satisfy FDA testing requirements. …
Do Reverse Payment Settlements Violate The Antitrust Laws, Christopher M. Holman
Do Reverse Payment Settlements Violate The Antitrust Laws, Christopher M. Holman
Faculty Works
The term "reverse payment" has been used as shorthand to characterize a variety of diverse agreements between patent owners and alleged infringers that involve a transfer of consideration from the patent owner to the alleged infringer. Reverse payment settlements are particularly associated with drug patent challenges mounted by generic drug companies under the Hatch-Waxman Act. Many, including the Federal Trade Commission, would characterize these agreements as antitrust violations. However, courts have generally declined to find these agreements in violation of the antitrust laws based solely on the presence of a reverse payment.
This article begins in Section II with an …
