Announced damages are pre-trebling, a statutory requirement under U.S. federal antitrust law in which a court must multiply financial damages suffered by three as a punitive deterrent against anticompetitive behavior. This brings the total award to direct purchasers to $1.4 billion. The end payer class and retailer plaintiffs were awarded separate damages. The five-week trial regarding the drug to treat irritable bowel syndrome and chronic constipation began April 13, 2026. The lawsuit accused brand drug sellers Takeda and Sucampo Pharmaceuticals Inc. of paying Par Pharmaceutical Inc. to delay the launch of its generic Amitiza product by up to seven years when settling patent litigation in the fall of 2014. This delay allegedly resulted in hundreds of millions of dollars in overcharges to the proposed class. Attorneys representing the plaintiff class included Thomas M. Sobol (lead trial counsel), Erin C. Burns, Kristen A. Johnson, Jessica R. MacAuley, Laura Hayes, Rebekah Glickman-Simon and Daniel Polonsky of Hagens Berman. Trial paralegals included Riya Jha and Valeria Alvarez. Attorneys described the deal between Takeda and Par in closing arguments on May 14, 2026, as a pay-for-delay scheme that unlawfully boxed out competition, highlighting that Takeda and its partner Sucampo sold about $1 billion worth of Amitiza in the years following the deal. “The jury spent five weeks listening to incredibly detailed testimony about patent litigation, FDA regulation and pharmacoeconomics, and they fundamentally understood that paying a competitor to stay out the market harms competition and harms the American healthcare system,” Johnson said of the trial results. **About the Amitiza Lawsuit Against Takeda** According to the complaint, the alleged reverse payment took the form of Takeda’s promise not to launch a competing authorized generic (AG) version of Amitiza when Par came to market. This no-AG agreement is allegedly manifest through the royalty payment structure in the settlement, which makes it economically irrational for Takeda to launch its own generic product when Par is allowed to do so. According to the complaint, in exchange for Takeda’s agreement not to bring a competing market to public, Par agreed to drop its patent challenge, forego launching at-risk, and delay coming to market for five and a half years. The Supreme Court forbids such large and unjustified reverse payments. Defendants allegedly attempted to conceal their unlawful agreement through an allegedly superficial reservation in the settlement agreement that Takeda may launch its own authorized generic (AG) product.
