Galderma Laboratories, a leading player in the pharmacological industry, has put forth a request to a Texas federal court to enforce an arbitral award. This request is a part of an ongoing trade secrets dispute with Ipsen Biopharm regarding an application for U.S. government approval of a Botox-like treatment.
The two companies are involved in a dispute over the trade secrets related to this new treatment, with Galderma Laboratories asserting that both parties are required to adhere to the International Chamber of Commerce arbitration.
