In this episode of Not So Different, we sat down with Nick Mitrokostas, an intellectual property (IP) lawyer and partner at Goodwin's IP Litigation group, to discuss how the approval of Pfizer’s pegfilgrastim biosimilar (Nyvepria) will affect the biosimilar market and what he sees for the rest of 2020.
