The similarity of the mark CIALIS mark with the disputed domain name The disputed Domain Name entirely incorporates the CIALIS mark with the addition of the descriptive term “generic”. An important body of WIPO UDRP decisions conclude that adding the word “generic” alone or in combination with other generic terms to certain famous drug names, to which pharmaceutical companies have trademark rights, and registering the resulted combinations as domain names (see Lilly ICOS LLC v.
