Preparation and legal examination of contracts in order to support the contracting
activities of pharmaceutical companies
The work of pharmaceutical companies, as well as organizations involved in the circulation of medical devices, has its own specifics and is regulated by the rules of special legislation, which are mandatory for accounting when developing certain types of contracts.
The most common contracts for pharmaceutical activity include distribution and supply contracts, licensing agreements, agreements on the alienation of exclusive rights, contracts for the conduct of clinical trials, rental contracts for equipment and premises, agency contracts, contracts for scientific events and others.
In particular, treaties governing the distribution, promotion, advertising of medicines and medical products have their own characteristics. When concluding them, it is important to take into account the special requirements of the legislation on advertising, as well as the particularities of the circulation of medicines and medical devices.
In addition, special relevance and important specificity are inherent in contracts for scientific research, as well as clinical and other expert studies aimed at introducing drugs and medical devices into circulation. The most important factor for observing the intellectual property rights of manufacturers of medicines and medical devices is the detailed elaboration of license agreements, as well as the conditions for protecting intellectual property rights as part of the conclusion of supply, agency and other agreements.
Often, full-time specialists of business entities do not always have the opportunity to timely and comprehensively assess the legal risks of concluding a contract taking into account all the features of the activities of pharmaceutical companies and organizations involved in the circulation of medical devices, as well as defend their position in the process of negotiating with contractors. In such a situation, the most optimal solution to the problem would be to attract professional lawyers specializing in the specified legal field to accompany the contractual work.
