Conformis Settles Patent Litigation with Stryker

Companies settle Wright Medical litigation related to patient-specific instruments for use with shoulder implants.

By: Globe Newswire

Conformis Inc. has entered into a settlement with Stryker Corporation resolving patent litigation involving Wright Medical Technology Inc. and Tornier Inc. Stryker acquired Wright Medical in November 2020.
 
“We are pleased to have resolved all of the ongoing patent litigation related to the Wright Medical dispute,” said Mark Augusti, Conformis president and chief executive officer. “The settlement once again highlights the strength and value of our intellectual property, as well as our steadfast commitment to protecting and enforcing it.”
 
Under the terms of the settlement, Stryker will make a one-time payment to Conformis and be granted a non-exclusive license with respect to certain Conformis patents.
 
On April 24, 2020, Conformis filed a lawsuit against Wright Medical in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. Conformis’ amended complaint alleged that Wright Medical’s multiple lines of patient-specific shoulder instruments, as well as the implant components used in conjunction with them, infringed certain Conformis patents.
