AbbVie will grant Momenta license to launch a biosimilar to AbbVie’s Humira.
On Nov. 6, 2018, AbbVie announced patent license agreements with Momenta over its proposed biosimilar adalimumab product.
Under the terms of the agreements, AbbVie will grant Momenta a non-exclusive license on specified dates to AbbVie's intellectual property relating to Humira (adalimumab) in the United States and in other countries in which AbbVie has intellectual property.
