The division bench of the Delhi High Court, of Badar Durrez Ahmed and Sanjiv Sachdeva, has permitted Biocon and Mylan to use Roche’s product data for Trastuzumab. Roche had challenged the approval mechanism adopted by the central drug standards controller (CDSCO) in giving Biocon and Mylan approval for its biosimilar drug and their product inserts containing product data before the single judge.
