`

`Administration of 480 mg/day DMF to Treat MS
`Was Obvious
`
`The Problem
`
`• Fumarates such as DMF were known to cause side effects such as gastrointestinal problems and
`flushing
`
`The Motivation
`
`• GI and flushing side effects seen with 720 mg/day DMF (dosed as Fumaderm or BG-12)
`• Patients prefer less frequent dosing
`• 480 mg/day DMF within the range of efficacious DMF doses to treat MS (360 and 720 mg/day)
`• Prior art taught dose of 480 mg/day DMF to treat psoriasis, an autoimmune disease with an
`immunopathologic pathway similar to MS
`
`The Solution
`
`• Follow prior art to less frequent 480 mg/day BID dosing while reducing side effects and increasing
`compliance to optimize the dose
`
`Prior Art
`
`The Grounds
`
`• 480 mg/day DMF in immunologically similar disease psoriasis [Exs. 1017]
`• 360 mg/day and 720 mg/day DMF (Fumaderm) in MS [Ex. 1006]
`• 120, 360, 720 mg/day DMF (BG-12) in psoriasis and MS [Exs. 1118, 1007]
`• January 2006 Press Release [Ex. 1005] + Schimrigk 2004 Abstract [Ex. 1006]
`• Kappos 2006 [Ex. 1007] + Schimrigk 2004 Abstract [Ex. 1006]
`• Kappos 2006 [Ex. 1007] + WO ᾽342 [Ex. 1008]
`• Kappos 2006 [Ex. 1007], Clinical Trials [Ex. 1010], Joshi ᾽999 [Ex. 1009], ICH Guidelines [Ex. 1011]
`• Magnitude of effect from 480 mg/day DMF dose in DEFINE/CONFIRM trials was not unexpected
`• No nexus for commercial success due to disincentives from Biogen’s existing and potential patent
`rights and extensive marketing for Tecfidera
`• Any commercial success was fueled by factors beyond the claims of the ᾽514 patent
`• The ᾽514 patent claims satisfied no long-felt but unmet need
`• No nexus between industry praise and the ᾽514 patent claims

`
`

`

`The Claimed DMF Dosing Regimen
`
`What is claimed is:
`1. A method of treating a subject in need of treatment for
`multiple sclerosis comprising orally administering to the subject in
`need thereof a pharmaceutical composition consisting essentially of
`(a) a therapeutically effective amount of dimethyl fumarate,
`monomethyl fumarate, or a combination thereof, and (b) one or
`more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, wherein the
`therapeutically effective amount of dimethyl fumarate, monomethyl
`fumarate, or a combination thereof is about 480 mg per day.

`Motivation to Decrease Dose From 720 mg/day DMF
`to Reduce Side Effects
`
` DMF’s side effects were well-known. See, e.g., Exs. 1019, 1026, 1028.
` The Board previously found motivation to decrease 720 mg/day DMF
`dose based on side effects. IPR2015-01993, Final Written Decision,
`Paper 63, 26.
` Gastrointestinal side effects were highest in 720 mg/day DMF treatment
`group in Kappos Phase II study. Ex. 1046, 25; see also Ex. 1121 ¶ 226.
` A POSA would not be discouraged from dosing lower than 720 mg/day
`based on the Kappos Phase II study data.
` Kappos Phase II study was a 6-month dose-ranging study that was
`not powered to detect an effect on relapse rate and is very different
`than a much longer 2-year phase III trial.

` Schimrigk study: A POSA would rely on the
`results of the Schimrigk study as suggesting
`efficacy of 360 mg/day and 720 mg/day DMF to
`treat MS.
` Psoriasis studies: A wealth of prior art, including
`Biogen’s studies, connected treatment and
`dosing with DMF in psoriasis to treatment and
`dosing with DMF in MS.

`

`DMF and Fumaderm
`
` “[T]reatment of psoriasis with FAC-EC [Fumaderm] does not result in a better
`therapeutic result compared to DMFAE-EC monotherapy.” Ex. 1017 (Nieboer
`1990) at 6.
` “It was concluded that the main active ingredient of Fumaderm® is DMF.”
`Ex. 1019 (Mrowietz 2005) at 2.
` “[T]here is cumulating evidence that dimethylfumarate (DMF), the main
`ingredient of [Fumaderm®], is the active compound.” Ex. 1027 (Ormerod
`2004) at 1.
` “DMF, which is metabolized to monomethylfumarate (MMF), is apparently
`the most potent antipsoriatic substance in [Fumaderm].” Ex. 1021 (Ockenfels
`1998) at 4.
` “The most effective fumarate metabolite of [Fumaderm] is
`monomethylfumarate (MMF), which is formed in the circulation by
`hydrolysis of DMF.” Ex. 1023 (de Jong 1996) at 1.

`

`The Link Between Psoriasis and MS Treatment
`
` “Since the inflammatory processes involved in multiple sclerosis (MS) are
`thought to be similar to those of psoriasis, fumaric acid therapy may also be
`effective in treating MS.” Ex. 1014 (Schimrigk 2005) at 3.
` “Given the involvement of immune-mediated responses and predominance of
`the Th1 cytokine profile in both psoriasis and MS, the objective of this study
`was to determine if oral fumarate therapy is effective in patients suffering
`from relapsing remitting MS (RRMS).” Ex. 1012 (Schimrigk 2004 Poster) at
`4.
` “Commonalities exist between MS and psoriasis in terms of immune function
`changes that may explain the efficacy of FAE in both psoriasis and MS.” Ex.
`1018 (Schimrigk 2006) at 6.
` “Because several other inflammatory diseases, such as . . . multiple sclerosis,
`follow similar immunological pathways of T-cell activation, psoriasis can be
`regarded as a vi[a]ble disease model.” Ex. 1019 (Mrowietz 2005) at 2.

`DMF Studies in Psoriasis/

`“In summary, the putative immunomodulatory effects, the psoriasis efficacy of

`a proof of concept study in MS.” Mylan Ex. 1010 (Clinical Trials) p.2 (emphases

` No nexus between commercial performance of Tecfidera and any

` No nexus between commercial performance and the ’514 patent
`because of disincentives from Biogen’s existing and potential patent
`rights and extensive marketing for Tecfidera.
` Dr. Jarosz failed to consider favorable marketing and advertising for
`Tecfidera, Biogen’s extensive experience in the MS therapeutic area,
`and Biogen’s significant discounts and allowances for Tecfidera as a
`driver of sales.
` The prior art already satisfied any long-felt need, to the extent any need
`was unmet, others were blocked from competing.
` No nexus between industry praise and the ᾽514 patent claims.

`480 mg/day DMF Dose in the

`
` Skilled artisans would

`lesions in the 360 mg/day DMF
`group and would correct for the
`imbalance.
` The results suggest that 480
`mg/day would be as effective as
`720 mg/day.
` Because 720 mg/day was shown
`to be statistically significantly
`effective, it would not be
`surprising that 480 mg/day would
`similarly be statistically
`significantly effective.
