...work the system every way it can. First it wanted Congress to approve a straight extension of its patent. When that didn't fly, it tried a bill that would have shifted any patent-extension decision away from Congress to a new review board at the Patent and Trademark Office, and defined criteria for such extensions in ways that tended to favor the drug companies.
