Abstract

The human population is infested with dermatological diseases. For example, at a global scale, 95% of people are infected with the Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) and 90% of people contract the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) in their lifetime. Yet, while the healthcare law literature is visibly scaling, the research relating to the law and economic systems controlling treatment for ubiquitous dermatological disease is non-existent.

First, this Article explains the biological understructure for common dermatological diseases. Second, this Article introduces a novel dataset sampling dermatology patents and providing market models, legal claims analysis, and valuation guidelines. Third, this paper discusses future dermatological technologies and regulatory access issues.

Keywords: Law and Economics, Healthcare Law, Dermatology, Pharmaceutical Patents
