`
`The present application is being examined underthe pre-AlA first to invent
`
`provisions.
`
`DETAILED ACTION
`
`1.
`
`Claims 1-27 are pending in the application.
`
`Election/Restriction
`
`2.
`
`The group setforth in the claims includes both independentanddistinct
`
`inventions, and patentably distinct compounds(or species) within each invention.
`
`However,this application discloses and claimsa plurality of patentably distinct
`
`inventions far too numerous tolist individually. Moreover, each of these inventions
`
`contains a plurality of patentably distinct compounds, also far too numerous tolist
`
`individually. For these reasons provided below,restriction to one of the following
`
`Groupsis required under 35 U.S.C. 121, wherein an Group is a set of patentably distinct
`
`inventions of a broad statutory category (e.g. Compounds, Methods of Use, Methods of
`
`Making, etc.):
`
`|. Claims 1-15, drawn to products, classified in classes 514/558, numerous
`
`subclasses.
`
`Il. Claims 16-27, drawn to methods of use, classified in classes 514/558, numerous
`
`subclasses.
`
`In accordance with the decisions in In re Harnisch, 631 F.2d 716, 206 USPQ
`
`300 (CCPA 1980); and Ex parte Hozumi, 3 USPQ2d 1059 (Bd. Pat. App. & Int. 1984),

`

`Application/Control Number: 15/046 ,322
`Art Unit: 1628
`
`Page 3
`
`restriction of a Markush group is proper where the compoundswithin the group either
`
`(1) do not share a commonutility, or (2) do not share a substantial structural feature
`
`disclosed as being essential to that utility.
`
`In addition, a Markush group may
`
`encompass a plurality of independentand distinct inventions where two or more
`
`membersare so unrelated and diversethat a prior art reference anticipating the claim
`
`with respect to one of the members would not render the other member(s) obvious
`
`under 35 U.S.C. 103.
`
`An election of any one of GroupsI-Il is required. Should applicant traverse
`
`on the ground that the compoundsarenot patentably distinct, applicant should submit
`
`evidenceor identify such evidence now of record showing the compoundsto be obvious
`
`variants or clearly admit on the record that this is the case.
`
`In either instance, if the
`
`examinerfinds one of the inventions unpatentable overthe prior art, the evidence or
`
`admission may be used in a rejection under 35 U.S.C 103(a) of the other.
`
`All compoundsfalling outside the class(es) and subclass(es) of the selected
`
`compound and any other subclass encompassedbythe election above will be directed
`
`to nonelected subject matter and will be withdrawn from consideration under 35 U.S.C.
`
`121 and 37 C.F.R. 1.142(b). Applicant may reservethe right to file divisional
`
`applications on the remaining subject matter. The provisions of 35 U.S.C. 121 apply
`
`with regard to double patenting covering divisional applications.
`
`Applicant is reminded that upon cancellation of claims to a non-elected invention,
`
`the inventors must be amendedin compliance with 37C.F.R. 1.48(b) if one of the
`
`currently namedinventorsis no longer an inventor of at least one claim remaining in the
`
`MYLAN- Ex. 1002, p. 6

`
`application. Any amendmentof inventorship must be accompaniedby a petition under
`
`37 C.F.R. 1.48(b) and by the fee required under 37CFR 1.17(i). If desired upon election
`
`of a single compound, applicants can review the claims and disclosure to determine the
`
`scopeof the invention and can set forth a group of compounds whichare so similar
`
`within the same inventive concept and reduction to practice. Markush claims must be
`
`provided with support in the disclosure for each memberof the Markush group. See
`
`MPEP 608.01(p). Applicant should exercise caution in making a selection of a single
`
`memberfor each substituent group on the base molecule to be consistent with the
`
`written description.
`
`Rationale Establishing Patentable Distinctiveness Within Each Group
`
`Eachinvention setlisted aboveis directed to or involves the use or making of
`
`compoundswhich are recognizedin the art as being distinct from one another because
`
`of their diverse chemical structure, their different chemical properties, modesof action,
`
`different effects and reactive conditions (MPEP 806.04, MPEP 808.01). Additionally,
`
`the level of skill in the art is not such that one invention would be obvious over either of
`
`the other inventions, i.e. they are patentable over each other. Chemical structures
`
`whichare similar are presumedto function similarly, whereas chemical structures that
`
`are not similar are not presumedto function similarly. The presumption even for similar
`
`chemical structures though is notirrebuttable, but may be overcome byscientific
`
`reasoning or evidence showing that the structure of the prior art would not have been
`
`expected to function as the structure of the claimed invention. Note that in accordance
`
`MYLAN- Ex. 1002, p. 7

`Application/Control Number: 15/046 ,322

`
`with the holdings of Application of Papesch, 50 CCPA 1084, 315 F.2d 381, 137 USPQ
`
`43 (CCPA 1963) and In re Lalu, 223 USPQ 1257 (Fed. Cir. 1984), chemical structures
`
`are patentably distinct where the structures are either not structurally similar, or the prior
`
`art fails to suggest a function of a claimed compound would have been expected from a
`
`similar structure.
`
`The above Groupsrepresent general areas wherein the inventions are
`
`independentand distinct, each from the other becauseof the following reasons:
`
`Restriction for examination purposes asindicated is proper becauseall these
`
`inventions listed in this action are independentor distinct for the reasons given above
`
`and there would be a serious search and examination burdenif restriction were not
`
`required because one or moreof the following reasons apply:
`
`(a) the inventions have acquired a separate status in the art in view of their different classification;
`
`(b) the inventions have acquired a separate status in the art due to their recognized divergent
`
`subject matter;
`
`(c) the inventions require a different field of search (for example, searching different
`
`classes/subclassesor electronic resources, or employing different search queries);
`
`(d) the prior art applicable to one invention would notlikely be applicable to another invention;
`
`(e) the inventionsarelikely to raise different non-prior art issues under 35 U.S.C. 101 and/or 35
`
`U.S.C. 112, first paragraph.
`
`Applicant is advised that the reply to this requirement to be complete must
`
`include(i) an election of a invention to be examined even though the requirement
`
`may betraversed (37 CFR 1.148) and(ii) identification of the claims encompassing
`
`the elected invention.

`

`
`The election of an invention may be made with or without traverse. To reserve a
`
`right to petition, the election must be madewith traverse. If the reply does notdistinctly
`
`and specifically point out supposederrorsin the restriction requirement, the election
`
`shall be treated as an election without traverse. Traversal must be presentedat the time
`
`of election in order to be considered timely. Failure to timely traverse the requirement
`
`will result in the loss of right to petition under 37 CFR 1.144. If claims are addedafter
`
`the election, applicant must indicate which of these claims are readable on the elected
`
`invention. If claims are added after the election, applicant must indicate which of these
`
`claims are readable upon the elected invention. Should applicant traverse on the ground
`
`that the inventions are not patentably distinct, applicant should submit evidence or
`
`identify such evidence now of record showing the inventions to be obvious variants or
`
`clearly admit on the record thatthis is the case. In either instance, if the examinerfinds
`
`one of the inventions unpatentable overthe prior art, the evidence or admission may be
`
`used in a rejection under 35 U.S.C. 103(a) of the other invention.
