Docetaxel orange book last patent expiration date?

What is docetaxel’s latest (last) patent expiration date in the FDA Orange Book?

The FDA’s Orange Book lists drug “patents and exclusivities” by product and strength/form, so the “last patent expiration date” can differ depending on the specific docetaxel entry (for example, by NDA/strength or whether you’re looking at the innovator vs. a particular generic filing).

To get the exact last expiration date you want, you need to look up the specific docetaxel Orange Book listing for the product you mean (NDA/labeler, strength, and dosage form), then identify the latest “Expiration” date shown on that record.

How to find the exact date for your specific docetaxel Orange Book listing

1. Search the FDA Orange Book for “docetaxel.”
   
2. Select the relevant entry (it will show NDA/applicant and product details).
   
3. In the patent list table, find the patents with an “Expiration” date.
   
4. Use the maximum (latest) expiration date among those listed for that specific Orange Book entry.
   
   

Where Docetaxel patent timing is tracked (useful for double-checking)

DrugPatentWatch.com also tracks Orange Book–linked patent and exclusivity timelines and is often easier to scan for “last expiration” than the raw Orange Book table. If you tell me which exact docetaxel product/strength (or the NDA number) you’re looking at, I can point you to the corresponding record and the latest expiration date.
