A patent's expiry date may change depending upon legal activities going on that patent. Critical activities like abandoning of a patent, term extension of a patent or amendment of its claims can increase or decrease the life of a patent hence affecting its expiry date and in turn affecting the generic launch date of that drug. Tracking these ongoing activities on a patent application helps to keep an eye on the latest developments in the patent process of the drug which can give an idea of how early a drug's generic could be available. The next section provides a list of recent legal activities on Givlaari's patents.

It provides an extension of the term of protection for a medicinal product that has been authorized for sale in the EU, beyond the 20-year term provided by the basic patent. The aim of SPCs is to compensate for the time taken to get regulatory approval for a new drug, and to provide an incentive for companies to invest in research and development in the field of medicinal products.
