Who owns the leucovorin patent right now?
The provided information doesn’t specify which specific “leucovorin” patent you mean (there are multiple related patents covering different salts, formulations, and geographic filings), so the current owner can’t be determined from the question alone.
Which leucovorin patents are usually searched (and why ownership varies)?
Patent ownership for “leucovorin” depends on details like:
- the exact patent number (or application/publication number),
- the patent’s territory (US vs. EP vs. other countries),
- whether you mean the original compound patent, a later formulation/purity/packaging patent, or a specific manufacturing process.
Because different patents can be assigned to different companies over time, the “owner” changes from one patent to another.
How can you identify the correct patent owner quickly?
To pinpoint the owner, you typically need at least one of the following:
- the patent number (e.g., US #######),
- the publication number (e.g., US #######),
- the drug/NDC or the exact product name (sometimes ties to a specific formulation patent),
- the country/jurisdiction.
If you share the patent number or the link you’re looking at, I can tell you who owns that specific patent based on the record.
