`

`
`Correspondence Address:  
`Rebecca Liebowitz
`VENABLE LLP
`P.O. BOX 34385
`WASHINGTON DC 20043
`United States
`
`Applicant:   SummaForte, Inc.
`
`Reference/Docket No.  N/A
`
`Correspondence Email Address:   trademarkdocket@venable.com
`
`
`
`
`
`
`REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION AFTER FINAL ACTION DENIED
`
`Issue date:   November 8, 2023
`
`Applicant’s request for reconsideration is denied.   See 37 C.F.R. §2.63(b)(3).  The trademark
`examining attorney has carefully reviewed applicant’s request and determined the request did not:  (1)
`raise a new issue, (2) resolve all the outstanding issue(s), (3) provide any new or compelling evidence
`with regard to the outstanding issue(s), or (4) present analysis and arguments that were persuasive or
`
`

`

`shed new light on the outstanding issue(s).  TMEP §§715.03(a)(ii)(B), 715.04(a).  
`
`Accordingly, the following requirement(s) and/or refusal(s) made final in the Office action dated March
`10, 2023, are maintained and continued: 
`
`
`•
`
`Section 1 and 45 Refusal – Unlawful Use of the Applied-For Mark in Commerce (FDCA
`Refusal)
`
`
`See TMEP §§715.03(a)(ii)(B), 715.04(a).  
`
`The applicant was refused registration because the applied-for mark was not in lawful use in commerce
`as of the filing date of the application. Trademark Act Sections 1 and 45, 15 U.S.C. §§1051,
`1127;  see TMEP §907. 
`
`Specifically, the goods to which the proposed mark are applied are unlawful under the Food, Drug and
`Cosmetic Act (FDCA), 21 U.S.C. §321(g)(1).   Applicant’s goods include items that are intended for
`use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment or prevention of disease and/or intended to affect the
`structure of or any function of the body, namely, Kinesiology tape; the foregoing containing CBD
`solely derived from hemp containing no more than .3 percent delta-9 THC on a dry weight
`basis. Furthermore, the applicant’s specimen of use and website indicates that the goods contain 150mg
`of CBD.  
`
`The applicant has provided several arguments against the Final Refusal, which have been considered
`and found unpersuasive. 
`
`First, applicant argues that there are several live registrations for similar or identical goods.  Prior
`decisions and actions of other trademark examining attorneys in applications for other marks have little
`evidentiary value and are not binding upon the USPTO or the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board.
`TMEP §1207.01(d)(vi); see In re USA Warriors Ice Hockey Program, Inc., 122 USPQ2d 1790, 1793
`n.10 (TTAB 2017). Each case is decided on its own facts, and each mark stands on its own merits. In re
`Cordua Rests., Inc., 823 F.3d 594, 600, 118 USPQ2d 1632, 1635 (Fed. Cir. 2016) (citing In re
`Shinnecock Smoke Shop, 571 F.3d 1171, 1174, 91 USPQ2d 1218, 1221 (Fed. Cir. 2009); In re Nett
`Designs, Inc., 236 F.3d 1339, 1342, 57 USPQ2d 1564, 1566 (Fed. Cir. 2001)).
`
`The applicant next argues that  In re Stanley"[u]involves only the applicability of the Food, Drug and
`Cosmetic Act to food products.Though this case did involve an ingestibles food product, the TTAB
`affirmed refusals based upon the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, which also covers therapeutic and
`medicinal products. Moreover, the FDA provides, " [u]nder the FD&C Act, any product intended to
`have a therapeutic or medical use, and any product (other than a food) that is intended to affect
`the structure or function of the body of humans or animals, is a drug. Drugs must generally either
`receive premarket approval by FDA through the New Drug Application (NDA) process or conform to a
`"monograph" for a particular drug category, as established by FDA's Over-the-Counter (OTC) Drug
`Review. CBD was not an ingredient considered under the OTC drug review. An unapproved new
`drug
`cannot
`be
`distributed
`or
`sold
`in
`interstate
`commerce."
`(emphasis
`added). See previously attached website screenshots from www.fda.gov. This further supports the
`validity of the FDCA refusal as it pertains to topical therapeutic or medicinal products. 
`
`Moreover, the applicant argues "[w]hile the Examining Attorney notes that under the FDCA, “any
`product (other than a food) that is intended to affect the structure or function of the body of humans or
`
`

`

`animals, is a drug” (citing 21 U.S.C. § 321(g)(1)), Applicant respectfully asserts that such language is
`so broad and overencompassing such that virtually anything could fall under this definition...Under the
`cited definition of a drug, even a cold compress to ease inflammation, or a hot water bottle to alleviate
`cramps could also be classified as a drug because they are “intended to affect the structure or function
`of the body.”" and "Applicant’s products are not intended to affect the structure of or any function of
`the body, but are simply intended to provide support and ameliorative pain relief. Once again, the
`doctrine of “reasoned decision making” dictates that the refusal be withdrawn so that there are not
`“conflicting lines of precedent governing identical situations.” See TMEP § 1216.01." However, these
`arguments have been considered and found unpersuasive. 
`
`Specifically, the applicant's kinesiology tape is infused with CBD in a manner for the CBD to be
`absorbed by the users body through their skin in the same manner that therapeutic topical products are
`utilized. The applicant's website states: 
`
`
`Unlike other kinesiology tapes, SummaTape also delivers CBD and menthol through the
`skin, providing a soothing cooling sensation and producing a triple anti-inflammatory
`effect.
`
`
`
`The menthol stimulates blood flow in inflamed areas and works with the CBD to accelerate
`muscle repair and improve circulation to help support and aid in the healing of injuries.
`
`
`See  attached website screenshots from www.summaforte.com. 
`
`Moreover, the attached website screenshots from NFuze Tape, Performance Health, Heali Medical,
`Legends CBD, Blackto Plus, and Vitamin Shoppe, demonstrate other competitors in the market place
`producing and selling kinesiology tape infused with various ingredients that are intended to be absorbed
`through the wearers skin similar to topical medicinal or therapeutic products.  See  attached website
`screenshots. 
`
`Although, the applicant is not producing and selling a traditional topical therapeutic or medicinal
`product as explicitly prohibited by the FDCA, the applicant's goods function similarly by delivering
`CBD through the wearers skin to be absorbed and utilized for therapeutic purposes. Accordingly, the
`FDCA Refusal under Section 1 and 45 is continued and maintained.
`
`If applicant has already filed an appeal with the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, the Board will
`be notified to resume the appeal.   See TMEP §715.04(a).  
`
`If applicant has not filed an appeal and time remains in the response period for the final Office
`action, applicant has the remainder of that time to (1) file another request for reconsideration that
`complies with and/or overcomes any outstanding final requirement(s) and/or refusal(s), and/or (2) file a
`notice of appeal to the Board.  TMEP §715.03(a)(ii)(B).

`
`Kinesiology tape infused with essential oils worksin a similar waytotraditional
`kinesiology tape, The tape is applied to the skin in a specific manner, and is designed to
`mimicthe elasticity of the skin. When applied in a stretched position,it canlift the skin
`slightly and create more spacefor the underlying muscles andtissues. This can help to
`reducepain and inflammation, and improve blood flow to the area.
`
`Theessential oils thatare infusedInto thetape mayprovideadditional benefits beyond
`traditional kinesiology tape, Theessentialoilscan be absorbedthroughthe skinand
`interact with thebody's own systems to provide painrelief,improveblood flow, and
`reduce inflammation.
`
`

`

`The specific e sential oils usedin the tape can also have different effects. For example,
`peppermint oil is knownfor its cooling andpain-relieving properties, while eucalyptus
`oil has anti-inflammatary properties. Lavenderoil is knowhfor its calming andrelaxing
`properties, which canhelpto reducestress andtensioninthe knee.
`
`
` It's
`oils important to keepin mindthat the use of kinesiology tape infused withessential
`
`s not well-researchedyetand it is important to check witha healthcare
` profe:
`onal before usingit. Also, ensurethat you are notallergic to anyof the oils
`usedin the tape,

`Everything you need to know aboutKinesiology
`
`Tape
`
`Whatis it?
`
`Kinesiology Tape was developed in 1973 by the Japanese chiropractor Kenzo Kase® to replace
`the stiff medical tape he wasusing in his practice. Through developing Kinesiology Tape he was
`successfully able to meet his end goal which was to mimic the elasticity of skin. This therapeutic
`tape made headlines during the 2008 Olympics whenit was seen worldwide being used by
`talented Olympians. Since this time, its popularity has continued to grow andis now used by
`anyonelooking for some muscle orjoint support. Kinesiology Tape is most well-known amongst
`athletes, athletes trainers, and physical therapists.
`
`

`

`Benefits of Kinesiology Tape?
`
`Kinesiology Tape offers a variety of benefits to a variety of users, we most commonly see
`Kinesiology Tape being used by athletes, though its benefits can be enjoyed by anyone. The
`following are just a few of the benefits that Kinesiology Tape can providethe user:
`+ Pain Relief
`+ Muscle support
`+ Injury prevention
`Help with Muscle sprains.
`+ Help with Arthritis
`Help with Lupus
`Help with Fibromyalgia
`Increase blood flow
`« Reduce swelling
`+ Decrease inflammation
`+ Reducefalling risks in elders
`Rehabilitation
`+ Help with tendinopathies
`Improved athletic performance
`Fascial support
`Help with poorposture
`+ Help with growing pains
`
`Risks of Kinesiology Tape
`
`Kinesiology Tapeis relatively risk free, with very few reports of mild side effects.In situational
`casesthe following risks apply
`
`- Allergic reaction: Kinesiology Tape poses a risk to those that havea history of
`allergic reaction to adhesives. Kinesiology Tape is generally applied to the skin
`for multiple hours to days at a time and this long exposure period could cause
`someskin irritation or allergic reactions.
`+ Deep Vein Thrombosis: Deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot that forms in the
`veins of the arm or the leg. When Kinesiology Tapeis applied on or near this clot
`it could causeit to move and be a concernfor risk of a pulmonary embolism.
`+ Open Wounds: Kinesiology Tape should not be used on or near open wounds.
`Kinesiology Tape when placed on an open woundorcut can create a situation
`
`

`

`where bacteria can beintroduced.
`+ Cancer: Kinesiology Tapeis a risk to useif the individual is going through
`treatmentfor cancer. Cancer may cause skin to break moreeasily.
`In addition,
`Kinesiology tape can increase circulation and might cause increased blood flow
`to a cancerouslesion.
`
`if any of these risks apply to you, please consult a doctor prior to using Kinesiology Tape.
`
`How doesit work?
`
`Kinesiology Tape works best whenit is breathable and elastic. The elasticity of Kinesiology Tape
`mimics that of the skin allowing for the skin to be slightly lifted off from the tissues belowit.
`Thislift, helps reduce pressure in the area and creates a pathwayforincreased blood flow and
`lymphatic flow.
`
`Howfo apply?
`Kinesiology Tape can be applied by the individual themselves, or by a medical orholistic
`practitioner. Whentaking on the task yourselfit is beneficial to have a practitioner or doctor do a
`demonstration, or to follow a video on the proper techniques and locations to apply. The most
`commontechniques used are as follows
`
`+ Neutral Technique: The neutral technique refers to when the goal of the tapeis
`to stretch the muscle. This technique should be usedfor situations when the
`muscle is strained or injured, or to help activate a muscle for performance. In this
`technique, the tapeis not stretched or pulled hard. This ensures that the
`individualis comfortable at all times of wear.
`+ Stretch technique: The stretch technique refers to when the goal ofthe tape is to
`createlift. This technique should be used on specific trigger points where pain is
`occurring. Thelift from this technique will reduce the pressure and increase the
`circulation to the area.
`
`Step by step application guide:
`
`1. Prepare the skin through cleaning and drying the application area. If the
`application area has excess hair the application will work best if the hair can be
`trimmed or removed through shaving or waxingit off.
`2. Cut the appropriate length of tape for the area in question. Ensure your pieces
`have rounded edges.
`
`

`

`3. Removethe backing trom the Kinesiology Tape.
`4. Apply one end to theskin, this will be the anchor. Rub the anchor end to
`activate the adhesive.
`5. Apply the tape to the area in question. Depending on thespecific needs, apply
`with aslittle or as much pressure as needed.
`6. Once the tape has been applied, rub the tape to activate the adhesive to ensure
`it stays in place.
`
`Different kinesiology tape cuts?
`
`+ LCut: The |-Cut is used for muscle facilitation and inhibition, and is the building
`block for the othervariations of Kinesiology Tape cuts. To make an I-Cut, use
`pre-cut strips or cut off the amount needed. Once you have the desired length
`round the edgesusingscissors to avoid it being easily removed by clothes.
`+ ¥-Cut: The Y-Cut is used to help avoid taping over sensitive areas such as the
`back of the knee orthe front of the elbow. The Y-Cut is made by using pre-cut
`strips or cutting an I-Cut strip, and then cutting lengthwise downto about half
`way.
`+ X-Cut: The X-Cut is used for large area coverage across multiple joints. This cut
`can help avoid taping over sensitive areas such as the back of the knees, the
`front of the elbows, and can be applied over large muscleslike the hamstrings.
`The X cut is made byusing pre-cut strips or by cutting an |-Cut strip and then
`cutting lengthwise on either end leaving a 2” uncut center
`
`Fan Cut: The Fan Cut is used to control the swelling of the leg or the arm most.
`The fan cut is made by cutting an |-Cut strip, and then making 3 cuts lengthwise.
`
`Lift Cut: The Lift Cut is used to lift the skin and tissues off sore muscles and areas
`to relieve pressure. The Lit Cut is made by cutting a small sized I-Cut and
`stretched to 75-100%.

`Studies have shown that when mentholis applied topically,it is beneficial in alleviating minor musculoskeletalpain.It can be very usefulin caring for
`clients with muscle cramps,arthritis, sprains, and other nagging aches and pains.

`Capsaicin has been shownto work as a temporary pain reliever. When applied topically, capsaicin creates a warming sensation that dissipates overtime.
`
`For years, capsaicin has been usedin creamsandlotions to relieve pain related to joints. Capsaicin works to block pain receptor nerves, which in turn
`blocks pain signals between the brain and the treated area.
`Additionally. research showsthat capsaicin works best when paired with an anti-inflammatorv.

`inger has been used for medicinal applications for a long time.
`According to Andrew Weil, "References to ginger's medicinal uses can be foundin ancient Chinese, Indian, Arabic, and Greco-Roman writings. Gingeris
`
`chiefly known as an anti-inflammatory agent, nausea reliever and digestive aid."
`Modern tests have shownginger to have anti-inflammatory properties as well as the ability to decrease muscle fatigue and cramping.
`Its Time for a Change.
`beiShape 3 - Shoulder - Resized
`The kinesiology taping industry has remainedrelatively unchanged sinceits beginningsin the 1970's.
`Welooked around the market and saw many improvements that could be madeto better improve how we warmup, perform, and recover.
`Byinfusing menthol and capsaicin into the adhesive, we have created a tape that improvescirculation beyond the capabilities of existing kinesiology tapes
`by stimulating the desired area with heating and cooling sensations.
`The ginger adds a naturalanti-inflammatory can aid recovery througout your workout, help you experience lowerlevels of muscle fatigue.
`All of these aspects together help increase your bodies natural recovery process and allowsyou to Feel It Work®.
`Pitfalls of Products on the Market Today
`Wedid our research. There are several pitfalls that face the rest of the kinesiology taping industry. We decidedto focus our efforts on the biggest shortcomings of current kinesiology products.
`Overly Complicated
`You already spent the time studying. You shouldn't need a second degree or a complicated road map to apply kinesology tape.
`Weset out to save you time by eliminating the need for cutting or twisting tape to get things just right. We've created easy to use shapesforall of the

`
`eak Adhesive
`Current kinesiology products have adhesive thatjust doesn't hold up. Without removingall the hair from the treated area and extra adhesive spary,the
`tape will begin peeling before the game or workoutreally gets started.
`For our tape, we worked to getthe right balance where the tape will stick from your warm-up all the way through overtime but will still come off when you
`needit to.

`
`nnoticed Benefits
`Probably the biggest pitfall for kinesiology taping products today is that the effects are basically unnoticeable. Though many people are aware of
`kinesiology tape, most people have no idea of what the benefits are.
`Ourtape hasall the standard benefits of kinesiology taping, but with the added ingredients in our adhesive, customerss can actually feel the difference
`after the tape has been applied. If your clients can Feel It Work® they are morelikely to keep coming back andbring in their friends and family.
