`
`DETAILED ACTION
`
`A requestfor continued examination under 37 CFR 1.114, including the fee set
`
`forth in 37 CFR 1.17(e), wasfiled in this application after final rejection. 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, the finality of the previous Office action
`
`has been withdrawn pursuant to 37 CFR 1.114. Applicant's submission filed on
`
`5/21/2012 has been entered.
`
`Applicants’ arguments, filed 5/21/2012, have been fully considered. Rejections
`
`and/or objections notreiterated from previous office actions are hereby withdrawn. The
`
`following rejections and/or objections are either reiterated or newly applied. They
`
`constitute the complete set presently being applied to the instant application.
`
`Claim Rejections — 35 U.S.C. § 103
`
`The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 103(a) which forms the basis for all
`
`obviousnessrejections setforth in this Office action:
`
`(a) A patent maynot be obtained though the invention is not identically disclosed or described as
`set forth in section 102 ofthistitle, if the differences between the subject matter sought to be patented
`and the prior art are such that the subject matter as a whole would have been obviousat the time the
`invention was made to a person having ordinaryskill in the art to which said subject matter pertains.
`Patentability shall not be negatived by the manner in which the invention was made.
`
`The factual inquiries set forth in Graham v. John Deere Co., 383 U.S. 1, 148
`
`USPQ 459 (1966), that are applied for establishing a background for determining
`
`obviousness under 35 U.S.C. 103(a) are summarized asfollows:

`
`Ascertaining the differences betweenthe prior art and the claims at issue.
`Resolving the level of ordinary skill in the pertinentart.
`Considering objective evidence presentin the application indicating
`obviousness or nonobviousness.
`
`This application currently namesjoint inventors.
`
`In considering patentability of
`
`the claims under 35 U.S.C. 103(a), the examiner presumesthat the subject matter of
`
`the various claims was commonly ownedat the time any inventions covered therein
`
`were made absent any evidenceto the contrary.
`
`Claims 20-24, 27-36, 38 and 40-53 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103(a) as
`
`being unpatentable over Lehat (Intranasal midazolam for childhood seizures, The
`
`Lancet, vol.352, August 22, 1998 — See IDS dated 10/29/2013) in view of Sonne (U.S.
`
`6,193,985- See IDS dated 9/16/2009) and Meezan (U.S. 2006/0046962).
`
`Lehat teaches diazepam is widely usedto treat acute seizures in adults and
`
`children and that intranasal administration of benzodiazepine compounds has been
`
`demonstrated as an effective way to manage acute childhood seizures (Abstract).
`
`Lehat does not teach suitable excipients for the formulation.
`
`Sonne teaches tocopherol compositions for the delivery of biologically active
`
`agents which are only sparingly soluble in water (col. 1, lines 7-13), such as diazepam
`
`(col. 1, lines 7-14). One particular nasal formulation contains 5g of diazepam, 44 g
`
`Tenox GT2 (70%tocopherol), 5 g Vitamin E TPGS, 1.45 g Pluronic and 0.1g
`
`benzalkonium chloride (example 1 at col. 7, lines 32-45). In preparing the formulation,
`
`the ingredients are heated slowly until a homogeneous phaseis achieved (Sonnealso
`
`teaches that co-solvent such as ethanol, benzyl alcohol, sesame oil or propylene glycol
`
`can be usedin orderto optimize the formulations bioadhesion, sprayability and viscosity

`
`(col. 6, lines 47-53). When ethanol is used in the formulations, it may be used in an
`
`amountof about 11% by weight of the formulation (See example 3 at col.8, lines 28-43).
`
`When sesame oil is used, it may be used in an amountof about 44% (example18,
`
`col12, lines 37-51) or about 60% (example 16 at col.12, lines 10-17). a-tocopherol may
`
`be used in amountsof 20 to 99.9%(col.5, lines 56-61). The active ingredient should be
`
`present in an amountof 0.001%to 40%(col.5, lines 55-61). Diazepam maybe present
`
`at about 5% by weight (example 11 at col. 11, lines 1-13). Preservative as well as odor
`
`masking compounds maybeincludedin the (col.7, lines 4-12). The composition may be
`
`in the form of a spray formulation (col. 6, lines 28-35). In general, administration to the
`
`nose can bedifficult because of the limited volume which is acceptable for the nose,
`
`which is about 100uL (col.7, lines 25-30). Sonne teaches that the “compositions of the
`
`invention may be used directly as a solution of bioactive agents in the tocopherol
`
`solvent”(col.3, lines 60-61) and that the "[vJiscosity can be reduced by the addition of
`
`co-solvents such as ethanol (col.3, lines 65-66). Sonne teachesthat “transmucosal
`
`delivery is preferred” (col.3, line 54) and "[njasal...administrations are particularly
`
`preferred” (col.3, lines 58-59). The compositions of the invention may contain from 1-
`
`99.99% tocopherol (col.5, lines 55-57). Sonne also teachesthat a co-solvent such as
`
`ethanol can be usedin order to optimize the formulations bioadhesion, sprayability and
`
`viscosity (col. 6, lines 47-53). When ethanol is used in the formulations, ethanol may be
`
`present in an amountof about 11%by weight of the formulation (See e.g. example 3 at
`
`col.8, lines 28-43). Thus, one of ordinary skill in the art would have foundit obvious to

`
`nasally administer a composition that contains only tocopherol or tocotrienol, an alcohol
`
`and optionally one or more alkyl glycosides.
`
`Sonne does not teach the addition of a alkyl glycoside in an amountfrom 0.01%
`
`to 1%.
`
`Meezan teachesthat alkyl glycosidase is an absorption enhancerfor drug
`
`administration (150). Specifically, Meezan demonstrates that the addition of 0.25%of
`
`alkyl glycoside can increase drug absorption from about 3%bioavailabilty to about 90%
`
`bioavailability when the drug is administered via a nasal spray. Meezanfurther teaches
`
`that the active ingredient for the nasal spray maybe in the form of nanoparticles (63).
`
`Meezan does not teach using a benzodiazapine active ingredient.
`
`It would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art treating seizures by
`
`oral administration of benzodiazepines as taught by Lehat to administer the drug ina
`
`benzodiazepine nasal formulation such as that taught by Sonne. In doing so, it would
`
`have been obvious adminsiter the formulation as nanoparticles comprising alkyl
`
`glycoside in order to increase absorption, and thus the bioavailability, of the active
`
`ingredient as taught by Meezan.
`
`Applicants presentthe following arguments againstthe rejection.
`
`Applicants argue that because the instant claims are to a solution which excludes
`
`water and oil.
`
`Examiner disagrees. A solution can be one phase of a composition which
`
`comprises multiple phases such as the emulsion compositions exemplified by Sonne.

`

`

`Application/Control Number: 12/413,439
`Art Unit: 1612
`
`Page 6
`
`The instant claims recite a method of treating...comprising...administering... a
`
`pharmaceutical solution... consisting of... 1 to 20 mg of a benzodiazepine drug, one or
`
`more natural or synthetic tocopherols or tocotrienols... one or more alcohols or glycols,
`
`... and one or more alkyl glycosides. Thus, while the solution is limited by the phrase
`
`“consisting of’, the use of the term “comprising” permits additional steps in the method.
`
`Such additional steps could include, for example, administration of an oil or water
`
`phase. Thus, the instant claims do not exclude the presence of water and oil as
`
`Applicants have alleged.
`
`Applicants argue that Sonne is silent with regard to treating a person having a
`
`seizure disorder, and thus one of ordinaryskill in the art would not be motivated to use
`
`the composition of Sonne to treat a person having a seizure disorder.
`
`Examiner disagrees. The rejection is not based on one reference alone, but a
`
`combination of references. Here, Lehatis relied upon for supplying the motivation to
`
`administer a benzodiazepine to a patient having a seizure disorder.
`
`Applicants argue that one of ordinary skill in the art would have no motivation to
`
`combine Sonne with Meezan. Since Sonnealready teachesthe inclusion of viatmin E, a
`
`penetration enhancer, a skilled artisan practicing the method of Sonne would have no
`
`reason to look anywhereelse for penetration enhancers.
`
`Examiner disagrees. While Sonne teachesthat penetration enhancers may be
`
`included in the formulation, Sonne does not specifically state that they improve

`
`absorption. Meezan teachesthat the inclusion of an alkyl glycoside can drastically
`
`improve absorption. Thus, one of ordinary skill in the art making the formulation of
`
`Sonne would find it obvious to include an alkyl glycoside in order to improve the
`
`absorption as taught by Meezan.
