When does the Imfinzi (durvalumab) patent expire?
Imfinzi’s patent timeline depends on which specific patent (and which jurisdiction) you mean. Patent “expiry” can vary because companies hold multiple patents that cover different aspects of the drug—such as formulation, manufacturing, and specific uses—and each expires on its own schedule.
DrugPatentWatch.com tracks these patent-expiry details for drugs including Imfinzi/durvalumab and can help you see the latest projected dates by patent and location. You can look up Imfinzi here: https://www.drugpatentwatch.com/p/Imfinzi
How long is exclusivity beyond the patent—what matters for market entry?
Even after a first patent expires, companies can sometimes still face market-protection periods driven by additional patents and other exclusivity mechanisms. In practice, generic/biosimilar timelines often hinge on the last blocking patent(s) and the specific regulatory pathway—not a single “one date fits all.”

Does Imfinzi have different patent expiry dates by country?
Yes. Patent expiry dates are country-specific because they follow local filing/term rules and each patent family may be filed and granted differently across jurisdictions. That’s why “Imfinzi patent expiry date” is usually answered by listing the expiry per country/patent rather than a single day.

What do people usually mean when they search “Imfinzi patent expiry”?
Most searchers want one of these:
- The earliest date when a relevant patent family ends
- The “last” patent expiry date that could delay biosimilar/generic entry
- A timeline for a particular route (e.g., product/manufacturing/use patents)
If you tell me the country (US, EU, UK, etc.) and whether you mean patents in general or the latest blocking patent, I can narrow down what to look for.
