Explains

PharmD, BCPS · Clinical pharmacist Updated

Generic mobocertinib succinate is expected to be available in September 2035, about 9 years away. None is for sale yet.

Why September 2035?

It is when Exkivity’s patent 9,796,712 ends. That patent covers the active ingredient and the product’s formulation, and once it ends, generics can go on sale as soon as the FDA approves them. We rate it likely: firm enough to plan around, but a court ruling or a new deal could still move it.

Why hasn’t the FDA approved a generic yet?

That is normal before a launch. The FDA usually can’t give a generic its final approval while a patent or exclusivity still blocks it, so final approval often comes close to the day the generic can be sold. No company holds a “tentative” approval yet either (the FDA’s word for a generic that is ready but still blocked).

Will the generic cost less?

Usually, but no company is recorded as having applied to make one yet, and a single company usually brings only a modest drop. See the price pattern

What should I do now?

Keep taking Exkivity as prescribed. When a generic arrives, your pharmacy may switch you to it automatically, and it may look different. What a generic means for you

Our month is only an estimate based on available information, so we never name a day.

Exkivity’s Road to a Generic

Exkivity has had the market to itself since the FDA approved it in September 2021 (Takeda Pharmaceuticals USA Inc). Its FDA protection (orphan drug) runs to September 2028. Its 2 listed patents run to May 2035.

The first generic of Exkivity is expected in September 2035.

Why that month: patent 9,796,712, on the active ingredient and the product’s formulation, ends then.

Brand alone on the market Since FDA approval, September 2021
New chemical entity Ended September 2026
Orphan drug Ends September 2028

Patent 10,227,342 Expires May 2035
Brand alone on the market FDA exclusivity Patent on the active ingredient First generic expected Swipe the chart sideways to see every year.

Each bar runs from the brand’s approval to the day that protection ends. The green band is our projection for the first generic: a month, never a day, because legal dates move and a generic reaches shelves days to weeks after it is allowed.

Exkivity Patents and FDA Protections

Every patent and exclusivity the FDA Orange Book lists for Exkivity’s own applications. A protection running past the expected month does not mean the date is wrong: a settlement or a court ruling can let a generic in before a patent ends, and a patent on one formulation or use does not block every generic.

The one that matters for a generic launch: patent 9,796,712, which ends in May 2035; the first generic is expected after it, in September 2035, about 9 years away.

Who Is Lined Up to Make Generic Mobocertinib Succinate

Three steps stand between a brand and a generic you can buy: a company applies to the FDA, the FDA approves it, and the company starts selling it.

1

Applied to the FDA

No company is recorded as having applied to the FDA to make a generic Exkivity yet.

2

Approved by the FDA

Not yet. The FDA has not approved a generic mobocertinib succinate. Final approval often comes close to the day a generic can be sold.

3

For Sale in Pharmacies

Not yet. No company lists a generic mobocertinib succinate for sale with the FDA.

Sources: how many companies have applied, from court records and company announcements; approved generics from the FDA Orange Book; tentative approvals from Drugs@FDA; what is for sale from the FDA NDC Directory. The FDA does not disclose an application before it approves it (21 CFR 314.430).

Exkivity Price: What Pharmacies Pay and What Generics Usually Do

What a Generic Could Cost

How we estimate it. The national survey of what pharmacies pay (NADAC) has no recent price for Exkivity, so we cannot show dollars. Here is the FDA’s finding of how far the price pharmacies pay usually falls as generic companies join: about 31% with one company, 44% with two, 73% with four and over 95% with six or more (the typical drop for every drug whose first generic came out from 2015 to 2017).

Median prices pharmacies paid for the generic (invoice prices), compared with the brand’s price before generic entry, from FDA’s 2019 analysis “Generic Competition and Drug Prices”. At the manufacturer’s price FDA found steeper drops (about 39%, 54%, 79% and over 95%), the figures quoted elsewhere on this tracker. A typical pattern, not a price quote for this medicine.

Exkivity NDC Codes and Packages

Each Exkivity package sold today has its own NDC, the product number printed on the box and on the pharmacy label. Open one to see that package’s details, what pharmacies pay for it and its patent timeline.

What a Generic Exkivity Means for You

Nothing Changes Until It Is in Pharmacies

Until a generic is actually for sale, keep filling Exkivity as usual. When one arrives, there is nothing you need to sign up for.

Your Pharmacy May Switch You Automatically

Every state lets pharmacists fill a brand-name prescription with an FDA-approved generic rated as equivalent to it, and about 19 states require them to, unless your prescriber writes “dispense as written” or “brand medically necessary” on the prescription. Some states ask the pharmacist to tell you, or to get your OK first. A study of every state’s law has the details.

It Will Probably Look Different

US trademark law does not let a generic look exactly like the brand, so the color, shape or markings usually change. The active ingredient, strength and form are the same. An “authorized generic,” made by or for the brand’s own company, can look identical. The FDA explains.

Your Insurance May Change Too

Once a lower-cost version is available, many insurance plans charge more for the brand, or stop covering it. Your plan’s drug list (formulary) says how.

Until a generic is on US pharmacy shelves, be careful with websites that offer “generic Exkivity”. The FDA warns that unlicensed online pharmacies sell counterfeit and unapproved medicines; its BeSafeRx page shows how to check a pharmacy.

Questions people ask about Exkivity

Is there a generic for Exkivity right now?

No. As of October 9, 2026 no generic mobocertinib succinate is listed for sale in the FDA NDC Directory.

When will Exkivity go generic?

September 2035 is the expected month, and that is likely but not certain. It is when Exkivity’s patent 9,796,712 ends. That patent covers the active ingredient and the product’s formulation, and once it ends, generics can go on sale as soon as the FDA approves them.

Will generic mobocertinib succinate be the same as Exkivity?

Yes in the ways that matter: the same active ingredient, strength and form, with proof that it reaches your blood the same way. Inactive ingredients can differ, which is why some people notice a different look or taste.

How much will the generic cost?

Nobody can say for sure before launch. No company is recorded as having applied to the FDA to make one yet, and a single company usually brings only a modest drop.

Has the FDA approved a generic Exkivity?

Not yet. The FDA Orange Book lists no approved generic version of Exkivity.

When does the Exkivity patent expire?

The FDA Orange Book lists 2 patents for Exkivity; the last runs to May 2035. The one behind the expected month is patent 9,796,712, which ends in May 2035. A patent date is not the launch date: settlements and court rulings often bring a generic earlier, and FDA approval or a company’s own plans can make it later. The expected month on this page (September 2035) weighs all of that.
