Summary:

TRIPS and Access to Medicines is a timely topic examining the Brazilian health and innovation policy, given the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, and contributing to the discussion on the balance of patent rights and the right of access to medicines. Although ideally a patent system for pharmaceuticals should serve to incentivize research into the development of new medicines, the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the equal importance access to drug and its affordability. This book, by focusing on the Brazilian rule which makes the grant of pharmaceutical patents dependent on the prior consent of the National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA), shows how the Brazilian model could be an example for other countries to follow in dealing with challenges of patent protection and the right to healthcare.
