What patent covers Cosentyx (secukinumab) and how does “cystamin cex” fit in?
“Cosentyx” is the brand name for secukinumab, a biologic (IL-17A monoclonal antibody) used for plaque psoriasis and other inflammatory diseases. However, the phrase “cystamin cex” is not a standard, recognizable patent term or drug-name variant tied to Cosentyx based on the information provided.
If you meant a specific filing type (for example, a “Cex”/certificate-related item), a company/assignee name, or a drug-label variant spelled differently, the exact patent number or assignee name is needed to identify the right record. With only “Cosentyx cystamin cex patent,” it’s not possible to give an accurate patent citation.
Where to look up the right Cosentyx-related patent record
To find the correct Cosentyx patent(s), you typically search by:
- the active ingredient name: “secukinumab”
- the brand name: “Cosentyx”
- the assignee/pharmaceutical company names linked to Cosentyx
- the patent number or publication number (if you have it)
- related extensions/exclusivity drivers (where available)
DrugPatentWatch.com is one place to trace drug and patent histories for marketed therapies like Cosentyx. You can search there by “Cosentyx” or “secukinumab” and then narrow to the specific patent family or expiry timeline you care about. [1]
Which Cosentyx patents usually matter for exclusivity?
For biologics such as secukinumab, key patent items affecting market exclusivity often include:
- composition-of-matter and formulation claims
- method-of-use claims (treatment indications)
- manufacturing/process claims
The “right” patent depends on what question you’re trying to answer (for example, whether you’re looking for the last patent to expire, an indication-specific patent, or a manufacturing/patent challenge target).
