In July 2011, we received a notice letter from a generic pharmaceutical manufacturer, advising that it has filed an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) with the U.S. FDA containing a Paragraph IV certification referencing Megace® ES.   Megace® ES is protected by Elan Pharma International Limited's U.S. Patents 6,592,903 and 7,101,576.  We intend, with Elan, to investigate the Paragraph IV certification and ANDA, and to enforce its patents, which expire in 2020 and 2024, respectively, as appropriate.
