`Pursuant to Local Rule 56.1, Defendant Eli Lilly and Company (“Lilly”) submits this

`
`solubility.” (Ex. 34 [McDonnell Reb.] at ¶ 96.)
`
`4
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Q. By looking at figure 5, the amino acid sequence of antibody G1 heavy and light
`chains, can a person of ordinary skill in the art determine whether or not
`antibody G1 binds to CGRP?
`
`A. Just looking at the sequences?
`
`Q. Correct.
`
`A. I believe the patent is very clear in characterizing antibody G1 as depicted in
`figure 5 and providing the binding properties and the biological activity of
`antibody G1. But without doing the binding studies and other functional studies
`potentially, I'm not aware of any way looking at a particular sequence can direct
`you to the antigen specificity just by looking at it.

`to put that in the context of the environment and the situation that they find
`themselves in.
`
`Q. If two antibodies bind to different epitopes, would their paratopes have different
`three-dimensional structures?
`
`A. It’s quite common that they would do.

`Thespecification of the ’045 patent identifies SEQ ID NO: 7 as the amino acid
`
`sequence of CDR L2 of Antibody G1. (/d.)
`

`
`The specification of the ’045 patent identifies SEQ ID NO:8 as the amino acid
`
`sequence of CDR L3 of Antibody G1. (/d.)
`
`62.
`
`Teva expert Dr. Pamela Blake has stated “I understand that Dr. Ravetch has
`
`reviewedthe specific sequences identified in claim 18 and confirmed that they correspond to the
`
`CDRs of [Antibody] G1 (which is fremanezumab).” (Ex. 5 [Blake Op.] at § 275.)

`
`Dr. Blake has stated “I understand that Dr. Ravetch has reviewed the sequences
`
`identified in claim 21 and confirmedthat they correspond to the Vy and Vr domains of [Antibody]
`
`G1 (fremanezumab).” (Ex. 5 [Blake Op.] at § 295.)
`
`64.
`
`The specification of the ’045 patent discloses the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID
`
`Nos: 3-8 as follows:
`
`SEQ ID NO: 6
`
`KASKRVTTYVS
`
`SQSYNYPYT
`
`SEQ ID NO: 7

`
`The amino acid sequences for the CDRs recited in part (a) of clam 18 (SEQ ID
`
`NO: 3, SEQ ID NO: 4, SEQ ID NO: 5, SEQ ID NO:6, SEQ ID NO: 7, SEQ ID NO: 8) correspond
`
`to amino acid sequences of the CDRs of Antibody G1 (CDR H1, CDR H2, CDR H3, CDR LI,
`
`CDR L2, and CDRL3, respectively). (Ex. 1 [045 patent] at cols. 71-72, 77-80; Ex. 30 [Ravetch
`
`Op.] at § 199; Ex. 35 [Ravetch Tr.] at 167:8-12.)

`35. The method according to claim 29, wherein the anti-CGRP antagonist antibody
`comprises a VL domain that is at least 90% identical in amino acid sequence to
`SEQ ID NO: 2.

`(Ex. 45 [Feb. 11, 2013 Response] at 4-5.)
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`94.
`
`In the March 14, 2013 Office Action, the examiner stated:
`
`The amino acid sequences and conformations of each of the heavy and light chain
`CDRs are critical in maintaining the antigen binding specificity and affinity that is
`characteristic of the parent immunoglobulin. It is expected that all of the heavy and
`light chain CDRs in their proper order and in the context of framework sequences
`which maintain their required conformation, are required to produce a protein
`having antigen-binding function and that proper association of heavy and light
`chain variable regions is required in order to form functional antigen binding sites.
`Even minor changes in the amino acid sequences of the heavy and light [chain]
`variable regions, particularly in the CDRs, may dramatically affect antigen-binding
`function as evidenced by Rudikoff et al. (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 79:1979-1983;
`cited by Applicant). Rudikoff et al. teach that the alteration of a single amino acid
`in the CDR of an antibody resulted in the loss of antigen-binding function. It is
`unlikely that antibodies as defined by the claims which contain less than the full
`complement of CDRs from the heavy and light chain variable regions (set forth as
`SEQ ID NOs:3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8) of the antibodies would have the required binding
`function. The specification provides no direction or guidance regarding how to
`produce antibodies as broadly defined by the claims that are also useful for treating
`inflammatory pain. Undue experimentation would be required to produce the
`invention commensurate with the scope of the claims from the written disclosure
`alone.
`
`(Ex. 46 [Mar. 14, 2013 Office Action] at 7-8.)
`
`95.
`
`In the March 14, 2013 Office Action, the examiner stated:
`
`Claims 18, 21-23, 30, and 33-35 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 112, first paragraph,
`as containing subject matter which was not described in the specification in such a
`way as to reasonably convey to one skilled in the relevant art that the inventor(s),
`at the time the application was filed, had possession of the claimed invention.
`
`(Ex. 46 [Mar. 14, 2013 Office Action] at 9.)

`Case 1:18-cv-12029-ADB Document 299 Filed 03/28/22 Page 24 of 53
`
`ID NOs: 6, 7, and 8, respectively, but not the full breadth of the claim meets the
`written description provision of 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph.
`
`(Ex. 46 [Mar. 14, 2013 Office Action] at 12.)
`
`97.
`
`Claim 36 of the ’846 application, which recited “[t]he method according to claim
`
`29, wherein the anti-CGRP antagonist antibody comprises a VH domain comprising SEQ ID NO:
`
`1 and a VL domain comprising SEQ ID NO: 2” (Ex. 45 [Feb. 11, 2013 Response] at 5), was not
`
`rejected for lack of written description in the March 14, 2013 Office Action. (Ex. 46 [Mar. 14,
`
`2013 Office Action] at 9.)
`
`98.
`
`On June 28, 2013, the applicant filed an Amendment and Response to Office Action
`
`in response to the March 14, 2013 Office Action. (Ex. 47 [June 28, 2013 Response].)
`
`99.
`
`In the June 28, 2013 Amendment and Response to Office Action, the applicant did
`
`not attempt to overcome the Examiner’s rejection of, inter alia, claims 30, 33, and 35 for lack of
`
`written description and enablement or argue that antibodies other than Antibody G1 and the “84
`
`variant humanized antibodies” listed in Table 6 of the specification were adequately described or
`
`enabled. (Id.)
`
`100.
`
`In the June 28, 2013 Amendment and Response to Office Action, the applicant
`
`amended claim 30 of the ’846 application as shown below:
`
`(Ex. 47 [June 28, 2013 Response] at 4-5.) Claim 30 was later allowed as amended. (Ex. 29 [Notice

`
`The specification of the Patents-in-Suit does not disclose any antibodies that bind
`
`to the middle-region or N-terminal end of CGRP.
`
`(Ex. 13 [Hale Tr.] at 175:2-6, 183:22-184:17;
`
`Ex. 26 [Poulsen Tr.] at 193:2-14; Ex. 40 [Pons Tr.] at 191:24-192:7; Ex. 15 [McDonnell Op.] at
`
`{9 94, 97; see generally Ex. 1 [’045 patent].)
`
`156.
`
`In his January 25, 2022 deposition, Dr. Hale testified as follows:
`
`Q. The patents-in-suit do not include any examples of a humanized anti-CGRP
`antibody that binds to an epitope of CGRP other than the C-terminal epitope of
`CGRP,correct?
`
`>. So in terms of the antibodies described in the examplesin these patents, I don’t
`think that they have explicitly described antibodies other than targeting the C-
`terminal epitope. Of course, in the specification and the claims, anti-CGRP
`antagonist antibodies are described, and they could include antibodies against
`all sorts of epitopes.

`
`Clinical Differences Between Galcanezumab andthe Antibodies of Claims 18
`
`and 21 of the ’045 Patent
`
`175.
`
`Lilly’s Emgality® (galcanezumab)is the only therapeutic antibody approved by the
`
`FDAto treat episodic cluster headache.
`
`(Ex. 48 [Charles Op.] at § 217 (“Galcanezumab remains
`
`the only anti-CGRP antibody approved for treating episodic cluster headache to date.”); Ex. 49
`
`[Rainey Tr.] at 53:18-20; Ex. 50 [Blumenfeld Tr.] at 195:16-23;
`|| Ex. 5 [Blake Op.] at § 84; Ex. 51 [Blumenfeld Resp.] at § 96.)
`
`176.
`
`The FDA has only approved Teva’s Ajovy® (fremanezumab) for the preventive
`
`treatment of migraine. (Ex. 41 [Ajovy Label]; Ex. 49 [Rainey Tr.] at 53:18-20.)
`
`177.
`
`In his August 10, 2021 deposition, Thomas Rainey, Teva Senior Vice President,
`
`Specialty Sales & Marketing,testified as follows:
`
`Q. Has Ajovy been approved fora cluster headacheindication?
`
`A. It has not.
`
`(Ex. 49 [Rainey Tr.] at 45:16-23; 53:18-20.)
`
`Dr. Blake has opined that “Emgality® was approved by the FDA on September 27,
`
`2018 andis indicated for the preventive treatment of EM [Episodic Migraine] and CM [Chronic
`
`Migraine] in adults and the treatment of episodic cluster headachein adults,” and “[c]linical studies
`
`have demonstrated efficacy of Emgality® in episodic and chronic migraine patients, as well as
`
`episodic cluster headachepatients.” (Ex. 5 [Blake Op.] at § 84.)

`
`In 2017, Teva initiated a clinical trial to test fremanezumabto treat episodic cluster
`
`headache and the trial did not demonstrate that fremanezumab waseffective to treat episodic
`
`cluster headache.

`
`In his January 20, 2022 deposition, Dr. Hill testified as follows:
`
`Q. A study seeking to show that the Teva antibody waseffective in treating cluster
`headache was terminated
`
`correct?
`
`A. Correct.

`
`Teva’s Infringement Allegations Regarding Claims 18 and 21 of the ’045
`Patent
`
`186.
`
`Teva has disclosed expert opinion testimonyonthe issue of infringement of claims
`
`18 and 21 of the ’045 patent from Dr. Ravetch and Dr. Blake.
`
`(Ex. 30 [Ravetch Op.]; Ex. 14

`
`192. Dr. Ravetch’s opinionsrelating to infringementof claim 18 ofthe ’045 patent under
`
`the doctrine of equivalents compare galcanezumabto the “antibody element” of claim 18. (Ex. 30
`
`[Ravetch Op.] at § 201.)
`
`193. Dr. Ravetch has opinedthat “[g]aleanezumab,the active ingredient in Emgality®,
`
`is equivalent to the antibody element of claim 18 when usedin the claimed method of treating
`
`headachein human patients.” (Ex. 30 [Ravetch Op.] at § 201.)
`
`194. Dr. Ravetch has opined:
`
`Both fremanezumab and galcanezumab are humanized anti-CGRP antagonist
`antibodies with the structural features required by the antibody elementof claim 18
`(i.e., three heavy chain CDRs andthree light chain CDRs), but differ in the amino
`acid sequencesofthese features. Specifically, fremanezumab’s CDRs correspond
`to the particular sequences recited in claim 18 (i.e., SEQ ID Nos. 3-8), while
`
`alcanezumab’s do not. This difference in CDRs is reflected
`
`(Ex. 30 [Ravetch Op.] at § 225.)
`
`195. Dr. Blake groupsall limitations in claim 18 of the 045 patent relating to the amino
`
`acid sequencesof the antibodyinto a single “antibody element.” (Ex. 5 [Blake Op.] at §§ 276, 277
`
`& 0.68.)
`
`196.
`
`Inasection of her opening expert report titled “Claim 18” and referring to claim 18
`
`of the ’045 patent, Dr. Blake opinedthat:
`
`[T]he antibody of claim 18 is narrowerthan the antibody of claim 17, both in terms
`of the structure of the antibody(i.e., the presence of three heavy chain CDRs and
`three light chain CDRs) and in terms of the sequence of the antibody (i-e., the
`specific aminoacids that constitute the six required CDRs).
`
`(Ex. 5 [Blake Op.] at § 276 & n.68 (referring to the “antibody element” of claim 18).)
`
`197.
`
`Inasection of her opening expert report titled “Claim 18” and referring to claim 18
`
`of the ’045 patent, Dr. Blake opinedthat:
`
`es|
`
`4l
`
`
`
`Regarding the specific antibody element in claim 18, galcanezumab is an
`embodiment of such an antibody and is a humanized monoclonal antibody that has
`a heavy chain with three heavy chain CDRs and light chain with three light chain
`CDRs, including a CDR H1, a CDR H2, a CDR H3, a CDR L1, a CDR L2, and a
`CDR L3). The amino acid sequences of galcanezumab’s six CDRs are not the same
`as those enumerated in claim 18. Accordingly, when compared with the antibody
`element of claim 18, galcanezumab has the same structural components (i.e., three
`heavy chain CDRs and three light chain CDRs), but differs in the particular amino
`acid sequences of those components.

`antibody (i.e., the specific amino acids of the that constitute the Vy and Vi
`domains).
`
`(Ex. 30 [Ravetch Op.] at § 230; see Ex. 35 [Ravetch Tr.] at 199:6-13.)
`
`202. Dr. Ravetch’s opinionsrelating to infringement of claim 21 ofthe ’045 patent under
`
`the doctrine of equivalents compare galcanezumabto the “antibody element” of claim 21. (Ex. 30
`
`[Ravetch Op.] at § 232.)
`
`203. Dr. Ravetch has opinedthat “[g]alcanezumab,the active ingredient in Emgality®,
`
`is equivalent to the antibody element of claim 21 when used in the claimed method of treating
`
`headachein humanpatients .
`
`.
`
`. .” (Ex. 30 [Ravetch Op.] at § 232.)
`
`204. Dr. Ravetch has opined:
`
`Both fremanezumab and galcanezumab are humanized anti-CGRP antagonist
`antibodies with the structural features required by the antibody element of claim 21
`(i.e., complete Vx and Vy domains), but differ in the amino acid sequencesof these
`features. Specifically, fremanezumab’s Vy and Vy domains correspond to the
`particular sequences recited in claim 21 (i.e., SEQ ID Nos.
`1 and 2), while
`
`aVuandVzdomainsdonot. ThisdifferenceinCDRsisreflected
`
`(Ex. 30 [Ravetch Op.] at § 240 (citations omitted).)
`
`205. Dr. Blake groupsall limitations in claim 21 of the ’045 patent relating to the amino
`
`acid sequencesof the antibody into a single “antibody element.” (Ex. 5 [Blake Op.] at § 296.)
`
`206.
`
`In a section of her opening expert report titled “Claim 21” and referring to claim 21
`
`of the ’045 patent, Dr. Blake opinedthat:
`
`I also understand from Dr. Ravetch that the antibody element in claim 21 is
`narrowerthan the antibody elementin claim 18 because the sequencesidentified in
`claim 21 include the CDR sequenceslisted in claim 18 as well as the specific FR
`sequencesthat are between the CDRsin the Vy and Vi domains (four FR sequences
`in the Vy domain and four in the Vi domain). In addition, the antibody element
`does not include any variants of G1 as claim 18 does. Thus, the antibody element
`of claim 21 is a subset of the antibody element of claim 18. As for claim 17, the
`“antibody” element in claim 21 is narrower than the “antibody” element in claim
`17, both in terms of the structure of the antibody(i.e., the presence of both a Vu
`
`es|
`
`43
`
`
`
`and a VL domain) and in terms of the sequence of the antibody (i.e., the specific
`amino acids of the that constitute the VH and VL domains).

`
`
`antibody’s CDRs, but rather that the antibody binds to and antagonizes CGRP to
`achieve a beneficial effect.
