`Response to Amendment
`
`As requested in the correspondence from applicants dated 5 November 2003,
`
`which is in reply to the Office action of4 August 2003, claims 3, 5, 6, 8 and 12-15 have
`
`been amended, claims 7, 18-25 and 27 have been cancelled and new claims 31-34
`
`added.
`
`Status of Claim Rejections - 35 usc § 112
`
`In the previous Office action, dated 4 August 2003, claims 7, 18-25 and 27-30
`
`were rejected under 35 U.S.C. 112, second paragraph, for indefiniteness.
`
`Claims 7, 18-25 and 27 have been cancelled, mooting the rejection of that claim
`
`under this statute.
`
`Claims 28-30 have been amended soas to define proper methods of
`
`manufacture under this statute, and therefore the rejection of claims 28-30 under 35
`
`U.S.C. 112, second paragraph, is hereby withdrawn.
`
`Status of Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 101
`
`In the previous Office action, dated 4 August 2003 claims 21, 22 and 27-30 were
`
`rejected under 35 U.S.C. 101 for specifying non-statutory subject matter.
`
`Claims 21, 22 and 27 have been cancelled, mooting the rejection of those claims
`
`under this statute.
`
`Claims 28-30 have been amended so as to define proper methods of
`
`manufacture under this statute, and therefore the rejection of claims 28-30 under 35
`
`U.S.C. 101 is hereby withdrawn.

`
`Status of Obviousness-type Double Patenting
`
`in the previous Office action, dated 4 August 2003, claims 1-7 were provisionally
`
`rejected under the judicially created doctrine of obviousness—type double patenting as
`
`being unpatentable over allowed claims 3 and 4 of U.S. application no. 09/700,094.
`
`The rejection is withdrawn in view of the Terminal Disclaimer over the commonly-
`
`owned cited application.
`1
`
`Status of Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 102
`
`In the previous Office action, dated 4 August 2003, claims 18 and 23 were
`
`rejected as being anticipated by WO 94/11337 (Johansson et al).
`
`Both claims 18 and 23 have been cancelled, mooting the rejection.
`
`Status of Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 103
`
`In the previous Office action, dated 4 August 2003, claims 20 and 25 were _.
`
`rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103(a) as being unpatentable over Johansson et al.
`
`Both claims 20 and 25 have been cancelled, mooting the rejection.
`
`In the previous Office action, dated 4 August 2003, claims 19 and 24 were
`
`rejected as being unpatentable over WO 98/43242 (Johansson et al ‘942).
`
`Both claims 19 and 24 have been cancelled, mooting the rejection.
`
`Allowable Subject Matter
`
`Claims 1-6, 8-17, 26 and 28-34 are allowed.
`
`The following is an examiner's statement of reasons for allowance:

`
`
`
`Application/Control Number: 10/130,214
`Art Unit: 1624
`
`Page 5
`
`All of the previously stated rejections have been obviated by cancellation of the
`
`rejected claim, or by amendment.
`
`An updated search afforded no additional applicable prior art.
`
`New claims 31-34 are patentable under 35 U.S.C. 112, first paragraph, as they
`
`comply with the written description and enablement requirement.
`
`if not for the Terminal Disclaimer over 09/700,094, claims 31-34 would be the
`
`subject of an obviousness-type double patenting rejection over that application.
`
`Any comments considered necessary by applicant must be submitted no later
`
`than the payment of the issue fee and, to avoid processing delays, should preferably
`
`accompany the issue fee. Such submissions should be clearly labeled “Comments on
`
`Statement of Reasons for Allowance.”

`Stable salts of novel derivatives of

`
`3,3-diphenylpropylamines
`
`The present
`
`invention concerns highly pure, crystalline,
`
`stable compounds of novel derivatives of 3,3-
`
`diphenylpropylamines in the form of their salts, a method for
`
`manufacturing these and highly pure, stable,
`
`intermediate
`
`products.
`
`From document PCT/EP99/03212 novel derivatives of 3,3-
`
`diphenylproprylamines are known.
`
`These are valuable prodrugs for the treatment of urinary
`
`incontinence and other spasmodic complaints, which overcome
`
`the disadvantage of the active substances available to date,
`
`namely inadequate absorption of the active substance by
`
`biological membranes or the unfavourable metabolism of these.
`
`Furthermore these novel prodrugs have improved
`
`pharmacokinetic characteristics compared with Oxybutynin and
`
`Tolterodint
`
`Preferred compounds from the group of these novel derivatives
`
`of 3,3-diphenylpropylamines are esters of aliphatic or
`
`aromatic carboxylic acids with the general formula A referred
`
`_to below
