URL Pharma didn't exploit a thing. The FDA setup the program, and asked drug companies to do the trials. It was the FDA's "Bullshit Process" that caused the problem, not the drug company that did what they were asked.
From the article:
"That year, the FDA started their "Unapproved Drugs Initiative", through which they sought more rigorous testing of efficacy and safety of colchicine and other unapproved drugs on the market.[26] In exchange for paying for the costly testing, the FDA gave URL Pharma three years of market exclusivity for its Colcrys brand,[27] under the Hatch-Waxman Act"
