Abbott Diabetes Care Inc. v.Sibio Technology Limited
In a provisional measures case concerning an on-body glucose sensor device (EP3831283), the UPC Court of First Instance denied the application filed by Abbott Diabetes Care Inc. The core finding was that the patent likely suffers from 'added matter,' making it probable that the claims would be invalidated during full proceedings. This decision not only blocked the preliminary injunction but also mandated that the applicant bear the costs of the current proceedings.
Abbott Diabetes Care Inc. v.Sibio Technology Limited
Abbott Diabetes Care Inc. successfully obtained a preliminary injunction against Sibio Technology Limited and Umedwings Netherlands B.V. regarding its CGM patent (EP2713879). The UPC Local Division granted the provisional measures, finding sufficient interest in the case despite initial objections from the defendants. This ruling is highly significant for medical device IP holders, demonstrating the court's willingness to grant immediate relief based on a cease-and-desist declaration when the application has legitimate purpose.

10x Genomics, Inc. v.Vizgen, Inc.
In this UPC case concerning patent infringement, the court issued a complex order regarding document disclosure stemming from parallel US litigation. The respondent sought to introduce evidence related to non-technical issues (such as competitive practices) into the European proceedings. The court granted the submission of specific documents but imposed stringent confidentiality requirements ('Outside Attorneys' Eyes Only'), balancing the need for evidence with protecting trade secrets.
