OBJECTIVE:To study the legislative evolution and causes of biologics data protection system in the United States, and provide reference for designing biologics data protection system in China. METHODS:Started from analyzing the features of biologics data protection in the United States,through analyzing the legislative struggle of biologics data protection in the United States,the caused and its enlightenment to China were explored. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:After legislative discussion evolu-tion and struggle,the United States enacted the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act in 2010,established the world's firststrong protectionstandard of biologics data protection system,and determined the 12-year data protection period. The legisla-tive basis was to stimulate the strategic needs of innovation,the direct cause was that a biological analogue simplified application was established in the United States,and the key factors included biologics technical attributes and patent protection features. Cur-rently,biologics data protection system is not suitable for China,and China should implement the system from nothing,from weak to strong when the national condition matches or strategic choice needs. Meanwhile,a mature registration approval system is the ba-sis of establishing data protection system.

The information commons concept-based stereoscopic resources support system for academic library with brand-new connotations and its application were proposed according to the increasing development and expansion of informationization, networking and digitization in different social fields, the significant change in disseminating methods of information resources, and the need of readers for library service.
3.Trend analysis of ANDA after the implementation of the drug patent linkage system in China
China Pharmacy 2024;35(21):2577-2581
OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for improving the drug patent linkage system. METHODS Data on drug names, drug types, abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) acceptance numbers, registration classifications, and applicant names were obtained from the patent certifications and patent information disclosure modules of China’s patent information registration platform for marketed drugs. The data collection period was from July 4, 2021, to September 30, 2023. The analysis focused on the annual distribution of patent certifications for the ANDA varieties included in the statistics, the proportion of different registration classifications, the details of the type Ⅳ certifications, the remaining validity periods of the corresponding patents for the type Ⅲ certifications, and the number of manufacturers for the same variety. RESULTS Among the ANDA varieties analyzed, type Ⅰ certifications predominated (accounting for 86.53%), while types Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ certifications each accounted for approximately 4% to 5%. In the three registration classifications, type Ⅰ certifications in registration classification 3 accounted for as high as 98.55%, and in registration classification 4, type Ⅰ certifications accounted for 79.65%, while types Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ certifications each accounted for around 7%. In terms of the detailed type of the Ⅳ certifications, type Ⅳ of article 2 certifications had a large proportion (79.23%) and showed a slight upward trend, whereas the challenges of type Ⅳ of article 1 certifications were few. The remaining validity period of the patents corresponding to type Ⅲ certifications was excessively long, with a median of 18 months. The proportion of the same variety with fewer than 5 manufacturers was 36.44%, while those with more than or equal to 20 manufacturers accounted for 14.75%. CONCLUSIONS The ANDA system in China has been orderly integrated with the drug patent linkage system in practice. It is recommended to optimize aspects such as patent certifications registration and objection mechanisms, the effective approval dates for ANDA with type Ⅲ certifications, and incentive measures for type Ⅳ of article 1 certifications, thereby further standardizing the ANDA process and guiding the high-quality development of generic drugs.

【Objective】 To learn the production efficient of platelet components among prefecture-level blood stations in China, to provide supporting data for those blood stations to optimize the production mode of platelet components and continuously improve production efficiency and supply capacity. 【Methods】 The data from 2017 to 2020 was obtained from 24 prefecture-level blood stations who were the members of the practice comparison network for blood institutes in China. The collection units of apheresis platelets, the number of dual-collections of apheresis platelets and plasma, the average apheresis units of one platelet apheresis procedure, the discarded rate of apheresis platelets, the amount of expired apheresis platelets and the amount of apheresis platelets issued were collected. For concentrated platelets, the prepared amount of platelet concentrates and the amount of expired platelet concentrates were collected; both the quantity of qualified and issued concentrated platelets were submitted for statistical analysis.The total output and efficiency of platelet components were calculated based on the collected data. 【Results】 The average annual growth rate of apheresis platelets collection in 24 prefecture-level blood stations was 12.23%, accounting for 99.80% of the total platelet output; the average collection unit of one platelets apheresis procedure was 1.75; from 2019 to 2020, only 5 blood stations performed dual-collection of platelet and plasma during one apheresis procedure; the discarded rate of apheresis platelets was 0.28%, of which 0.007% was due to expiration. A total of 1 621.2 therapeutic units of concentrated platelets were prepared, and 13.03% of them was discarded due to the expiration. The production efficiency of platelet components was 97.56%, of which the production efficiency of apheresis platelets was 97.61% and the production efficiency of concentrated platelets was 74.43%. 【Conclusion】 There are large regional differences in the supply capacity of platelet components in prefecture-level blood stations. Apheresis platelets are the main resource of platelet components product, and the collection capacity is increasing over the years with the characteristics of high production efficiency and low expiration scrapping rate. However, the preparation of concentrated platelets are still limited with relatively low production and high expiration discarded rate.
