`
`The Office has discontinued providing a Patent Term Adjustment (PTA) calculation with the Notice of Allowance.
`
`to eliminate the
`Section l(h)(2) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act amended 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3)(B)(i)

`that
`the Office provide a patent term adjustment deteimination with the notice of allowance. See
`Revisions to Patent Term Adjustment, 78 Fed. Reg. I9416, 194]? (Apr. 1, 2013). Therefore, the Office is no longer
`providing an initial patent temi adjustment determination with the notice of allowance. The Office will continue to
`provide a patent
`term adjustment determination with the Issue Notification Letter that
`is mailed to applicant
`approximately three weeks prior to the issue date of the patent, and will include the patent term adjustment on the
`patent. Any request for reconsideration of the patent term adjustment determination (or reinstatement of patent term
`adjustment) should follow the process outlined in 3? CFR 1.705.
`
`Any questions regarding the Patent Term Extension or Adjustment determination should be directed to the Office of
`Patent Legal Administration at (571)-2?2-7?02. Questions relating to issue and publication fee payments should be
`directed to the Customer Service Center of the Office of Patent Publication at l—(888)—736—0101 or (571)—272—4200.

`DETAILED ACTION
`
`Continued Examination Under 37 OFF? 1. 1' 14
`
`A request for continued examination under 37 CFR 1.114, including the fee set
`
`forth in 37 CFR 1.17(e), was filed in this application after allowance or after an Office
`
`action under Ex Parie Quayle, 25 USPQ 74, 453 O.G. 213 (Comm'r Pat. 1935). Since
`
`this application is eligible for continued examination under 37 CFR 1.114, and the fee

`set forth in 37 CFR 1.17(e) has been timely paid, prosecution in this application has
`
`been reopened pursuant to 37 CFR 1.114. Applicant's submission filed on 5/9/2014 has

`
`and abiraterone to treat prostate cancer obviate the rejection under 35 USC 103(a).
