Gross margin was 78% for the fourth quarter of 2019, as compared to 71% for the corresponding prior year period. The increase in gross margin was driven primarily by lower accrued royalties related to ongoing litigation.
Operating expenses were $66.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, as compared to $110.6 million for the corresponding prior year period, a decrease of 40%. The prior year period included $40.1 million of in-process R&D as well as an incremental $30.4 million in accrued contingent liabilities.
Operating loss was $8.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, as compared to $75.0 million for the corresponding prior year period. This includes $5.1 million of stock-based compensation for the fourth quarter of 2019, as compared to $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2018.
Net loss was $7.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, as compared to $75.5 million for the corresponding prior year period.

Gross margin was 75% for full year 2019, as compared to 80% for 2018.

Operating expenses were $215.4 million for full year 2019, as compared to $228.4 million for 2018, a decrease of 6%. Operating expenses in 2018 included $62.4 million of in-process R&D as well as an incremental $29.1 million in accrued contingent liabilities.
Operating loss was $30.6 million for full year 2019, as compared to $110.8 million for 2018. This includes $13.3 million of stock-based compensation for full year 2019, as compared to $2.7 million for full year 2018.
