Please join Troutman Pepper’s Intellectual Property and Health Sciences practice groups for the fifth installment of their podcast series on strategy, trends, and other happenings at the PTAB.

Moderated by Troutman Pepper Partner Maia Harris, this episode features Troutman Pepper Partners Michael Goldman, Edwin (Ted) Merkel, and Andrew Zappia, who focus on the PTO’s recent announcement to extend its Motion to Amend (MTA) Pilot Program. Our speakers discuss MTAs generally, pilot program details, as well as strategies and further considerations on seeking amendments during IPR as opposed to other available post-grant options.

Be on the lookout for our next episode of this podcast series, where we will discuss arguments on secondary considerations during IPRs.
