A Higher Written Description Standard for Negative Claim Limitations?
Patently O
Share
  
Dennis Crouch's employer the University of Missouri owns several patents covering formulations of omeprazole proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The patents are exclusively licensed to Santarus who markets the drugs under the brand Zegerid®. Par filed its request to make a generic version which prompted this infringement litigation. The inventor, Jeff Phillips, Pharm.D., a pharmacist at MU had the simple idea of combining omeprazole with baking soda (sodium bicarbonate). The baking soda helps the drug resist stomach acids long enough to be absorbed in the stomach wall. Although not a blockbuster drug, the approach has been successful for many patients with GERD and Santarus sales are about $40 million per year. (The reported deal is that MU receives about 5 percent of sales. As the inventor, Phillips receives a small cut from that.) During litigation the patents were successfully attacked as obvious based upon a preliminary written description challenge.
