How do all the things that John and Bethany were just talking about, uh, affect antitrust strategy? G-what, what would it attract antitrust scrutiny?

Rahul RaoGUEST
Uh, antitrust regulators are, you know, really simply put, they're, they're concerned with anything that reduces competition.

Rahul RaoGUEST
Uh, in the pharma space, you know, that may include things like, uh, artificially extending patent monopolies, uh, ac-actions that may thwart generic entry or, or even anything that influences drug price negotiation.

Rahul RaoGUEST
Uh, historically, uh, antitrust enforcers, uh, cared mostly about, you know, things like overlaps of commercialized products in pharma M&A or, or something like price fixing.

Rahul RaoGUEST
What's interesting about pharma today is that many current sources of antitrust risk aren't obviously problematic on their face.
