Patent Protection of Chinese Herbal Medicine Inventions in Taiwan

作者
中文摘要

相較於以化學物質為活性成分之西藥發明,中草藥發明所含之有效成分大多不明,亦不易由其分離、純化出具特定結構之單一活性物質,且中草藥之基本理論與西藥亦有所差異,單方與複方之運用特色更是西藥發明所少有者,以致於此類發明在請求項之界定與審查上,皆難以適用一般醫藥發明專利之規範與實務。有鑒於中草藥之上述特徵,經濟部智慧財產局特別訂定中草藥相關發明專利審查基準專章,作為審查中草藥相關發明專利申請案之依據,本文聚焦於如何在臺灣取得中草藥之專利保護。

英文摘要

In contrast to Western medicinal inventions, which can identify a chemical substance as an effective ingredient, the active ingredients in Chinese herbal medicine inventions are mostly unknown and difficult to be separated and purified into a single active substance with a specific chemical structure. The basic theory of Chinese herbs differs from that of Western medicine, and the features of single or compound formulae seen in Chinese herbal medicine are not common in Western medicine inventions. Thus it is not entirely appropriate to apply the same criteria and practice adopted in the examination of pharmaceutical patent applications to the definition and examination of the claims of Chinese herb patent applications. In view of the above characteristics of Chinese herbs, the Examination Guidelines for Chinese Herb-Related Invention Patents is hereby constituted as the basis for examination of Chinese herb-related invention patent applications by Taiwan Intellectual Property Office (TIPO). This article focuses on how to get the patent protection of Chinese herbal medicine inventions in Taiwan.
