Aspart
Aspart, developed by Emory University, is a marketed drug primarily indicated for improving glycemic control. The key composition patent for Aspart is set to expire in 2028, providing a clear timeline for potential generic competition. The primary risk for Aspart is the loss of exclusivity post-2028, which could significantly impact its market position.
