MERCK'S PRETRIAL PROPOSED FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW1
1.
Plaintiff Merck & Co., Inc. ("Merck") is a corporation incorporated under the laws
of the State of New Jersey, with its principal place of business at One Merck Drive, Whitehouse Station, NJ 08889. 2. Defendant Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. ("Teva") is a corporation incorporated
under the laws of the State of Delaware, with its principal place of business at 650 Cathill Road, Sellersville, PA 18960. 3. On November 30, 1999, United States Patent No. 5,994,329 (the "'329 patent") was
duly and legally issued to Anastasia G. Daifotis, Arthur C. Santora II, and A. John Yates for a METHOD FOR INHIBITING BONE RESORPTION. Merck filed the application for the '329 patent on July 22, 1997. 4. 5. Claims 20 and 34 of the '329 patent are being asserted against Teva in this case. Claim 20 of the '329 patent, rewritten into independent form, claims: A method for treating osteoporosis in a mammal in need thereof comprising orally administering to said mammal a pharmaceutically effective amount of risedronate, pharmaceutically acceptable salts or esters thereof, and mixtures thereof as a unit dosage according to a continuous schedule having a dosing interval selected from the group consisting of once-weekly dosing, twice-weekly dosing, biweekly dosing, and twicemonthly dosing. 6. Claim 34 of the '329 patent, rewritten into independent form, claims: A method for preventing osteoporosis in a mammal in need thereof comprising orally administering to said mammal a pharmaceutically effective amount of risedronate, pharmaceutically acceptable salts or esters thereof, and mixtures thereof as a unit dosage according to a continuous schedule having a dosing interval selected from the group consisting of once-weekly dosing, twice-weekly dosing, biweekly dosing, and twice-monthly dosing.

The '329 patent is set to expire on August 14, 2018. Merck is the owner of the '329 patent. The '329 patent covers once-weekly
ACTONEL® tablets for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis. 9. On August 13, 2002, United States Patent No. 6,432,932 (the "'932 patent") was
duly and legally issued to Anastasia G. Daifotis, Arthur C. Santora II, and A. John Yates for a METHOD FOR INHIBITING BONE RESORPTION. Merck filed the application for the '932 patent on September 2, 1999, and that application claims priority from an earlier patent application filed on July 22, 1997. 10. 11. Claim 6 of the '932 patent is being asserted against Teva in this case. Claim 6 of the '932 patent, rewritten into independent form, claims: A method for treating or preventing osteoporosis in a human, said method comprising orally administering to said mammal a pharmaceutically effective amount of about 35 mg of risedronate monosodium hemipentahydrate as a unit dosage according to a continuous schedule having a dosing interval selected from the group consisting of once-weekly dosing. 12. 13. The '932 patent is set to expire on August 14, 2018. Merck is the owner of the '932 patent. The '932 patent covers once-weekly
ACTONEL® tablets for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis. 14. Teva filed ANDA No. 77-132 seeking approval to market generic copies of
ACTONEL® once-weekly tablets that contain 35 mg of risedronate sodium2 before the expiration of the '329 and '932 patents. II. TEVA'S ANDA NO. 77-132 INFRINGES CLAIMS 20 AND 34 OF THE '329 PATENT AND CLAIM 6 OF THE '932 PATENT 15. Under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2), it is an act of infringement to file an ANDA under
Section 505(j) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act for a drug claimed in a patent or the use

ACTONEL® tablets contain risedronate monosodium hemi-pentahydrate.

of which is claimed in a patent for the purpose of bringing the drug to market before expiration of that patent. Glaxo v. Novopharm. Ltd., 101 F.3d 1562, 1569 (Fed. Cir. 1997). Courts have
recognized that such infringement is "artificial," as the accused infringer hasn't yet brought its product to market. The Court thus determines whether the drug's use would infringe the patent, if it were approved. Id. 16. Teva has stipulated to infringement of claims of the '329 patent. Specifically, Teva
has stipulated that that the marketing of 35 mg risedronate sodium in accordance with ANDA No. 77-132 would infringe claims 20 and 34 of the '329 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2). 17. Although Teva has not conceded infringement of claims of the '932 patent, Teva's
marketing of 35 mg risedronate sodium in accordance with ANDA No. 77-132 would infringe claim 6 of the '932 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2). III. THE PERSON OF ORDINARY SKILL IN THE ART 18. The claims of the `329 and '932 patents were not written for laymen, but for
"persons experienced in the field of the invention." E.g.. Vivid Technologies, Inc. v. American Science & Engineering, Inc., 200 F.3d 795, 804 (Fed. Cir. 1999). 19. One of skill in art of the '329 and '932 patents is someone with an M.D. or Ph.D.
degree, perhaps both, and working in the field of osteoporosis. Such a person would be familiar with the literature and background of bisphosphonates in osteoporosis. IV. DEFENDANT HAS NOT OVERCOME THE STATUTORY PRESUMPTION OF PATENT INVALIDITY 20. Once issued, patents are presumed to be valid, and the burden of establishing
invalidity of a patent claim rests solely on the party asserting such invalidity. See 35 U.S.C. § 282. The burden of establishing the invalidity of a claim rests solely on the party asserting invalidity. See 35 U.S.C. § 282. The burden is constant, never shifts, and must convince the court of invalidity by

clear and convincing evidence. E.g., Nupla Corp. v. IXL Mfg. Co., 114 F.3d 191, 192-93 (Fed. Cir. 1997). In this case, Teva has failed to establish the invalidity of claims 20 and 34 of the '329 patent and claim 6 of the '932 patent by clear and convincing evidence. V. CLAIMS 20 AND 34 OF THE '329 PATENT AND CLAIM 6 OF THE '932 PATENT ARE NOT ANTICIPATED BY THE PRIOR ART 21. For anticipation, every element of the claimed invention must be identically shown
within the confines of a single reference, arranged as in the claim under review. E.g., Crown Operations International, Ltd. v. Solutia Inc., 789 F.3d 1367, 1375 (Fed. Cir. 2002). 22. Although a reference can anticipate a claim if its disclosure or a particular claim
element is inherent rather than express, there must be no difference between the claimed invention and the reference disclosed, as viewed by a person of ordinary skill in the field of the invention. See Standard Havens Prod., Inc. v. Gencor Indus., 953 F.2d 1360, 1369 (Fed. Cir. 1991) (affirming denial of JNOV because reference did not anticipate). If even one claim element is missing from a reference, the claim is not "anticipated" by that reference. Id. 23. Claims 20 and 34 of the '329 patent and claim 6 of the '932 patent are not
anticipated by the prior art under 35 U.S.C. § 102. 24. United States Patent No. 5,869,471 (the "'471 patent") fails to disclose every
element of claims 20 and 34 of the '329 patent. The '471 patent therefore does not anticipate claims 20 and 34 of the '329 patent. 25. The Procter & Gamble Co.'s clinical trials pertaining to risedronate fail to anticipate
claim 6 of the '932 patent because the clinical trials did not occur before the July 22, 1997, priority date for the '932 patent. 26. A prior art disclosure cannot anticipate if it does not enable one of skill in the art to
make and use the claimed invention. E.g., PPG Indus., Inc. v. Guardian Indus. Corp., 75 F.3d 1558,

1566 (Fed. Cir. 1996). Prior art references must enable in order to anticipate because otherwise they fail to place the allegedly disclosed matter in the possession of the public. Akzo N.V. v. US ITC, 808 F.2d 1471 (Fed. Cir. 1986). VI. CLAIMS 20 AND 34 OF THE '329 PATENT AND CLAIM 6 OF THE '932 PATENT ARE NOT OBVIOUS IN LIGHT OF THE PRIOR ART 27. Obviousness is a question of law based upon underlying factual determinations.
Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG v. Hantscho Commercial Prods., Inc., 21 F.3d 1068, 1071 (Fed. Cir. 1994). 28. When the inquiry turns to obviousness under 35 U.S.C. § 103, the disclosure must
again be assessed to determine whether the methods were obvious under all circumstances without employing hindsight. E.g., Custom Accessories, Inc. v. Jeffrey Allan Indus., Inc., 807 F.2d 955, 960 (Fed. Cir. 1986). It is in this exercise that the Court can avail itself of secondary indicia of nonobviousness such as commercial success and failure of others to assist in reaching a conclusion. Id. 29. In an obviousness determination, the following factual inquires should be
considered: (1) the scope and content of the prior art; (2) the differences between the prior art and the claimed invention; (3) the level of ordinary skill in the art; (4) objective considerations, such as commercial success, long felt need, failure of others, and copying. Graham v. John Deere Co., 383 U.S. 1, 17-18, 86 S.Ct. 684 (1966). 30. It is critical in an obviousness analysis to view the patentability of claims while
"casting the mind back to the time of invention, to consider the thinking of one of ordinary skill in the art, guided only by the prior art references and the then-accepted wisdom in the field." In re Dembiczak, 175 F.3d 994, 999 (Fed. Cir. 1999); abrogated on other grounds by In re Gartside, 203 F.3d 1305 (Fed. Cir. 2000).

In 1996 and 1997, there was an expectation by clinicians in the bisphosphonates field
that risedronate sodium would not be well tolerated at a 35 mg dose. At this time, those of skill in the art would not have used 35 mg doses of risedronate sodium because of the clear expectation that the safety and tolerability profile for such high doses would have been unacceptable in osteoporosis. 32. In July 1997, it was well known that the oral administration of bisphosphonates
caused dose-related gastrointestinal side effects. In July 1997, any suggestion to give 35 mg doses of risedronate sodium, a potentially irritating compound, to patients contradicted the understanding of those of skill in the art. 33. Rank speculation about a therapeutic method fails to enable when those skilled in the Guesswork without
art would not consider such method as safe and tolerable by patients.
performance that does not show to a skilled physician the performance of the method does not place anything new in the possession of the public. See, Crow Operations Int'l., Ltd. v. Solutia, Inc., 289 F. 3d 1367, 1375 (Fed. Cir. 2002). 34. The development of a therapy for disease requires the drug to be safe and well
tolerated by the patient. Based on the knowledge in the field, no reasonable clinician would have increased the dose of risedronate sodium given to patients. The suggestions in the prior art, including the April 1996 and July 1996 Lunar News, did not address the widely expected and recognized concerns associated with the dose-related gastrointestinal side effects of
bisphosphonates. The Lunar News does not even address risedronate. 35. The development of a therapy for disease requires the drug to be safe and well
tolerated by the patient. Merck's beagle experiments provided surprising insight that higher weekly oral doses of bisphosphonates, including risedronate sodium, could be at least as safe and tolerable as much smaller daily doses.

Based upon the underlying fact determinations, claims 20 and 34 of the '329 patent
and claim 6 of the '932 patent are not obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103. VII. ONCE-WEEKLY ACTONEL® TABLETS ARE COMMERCIALLY SUCCESSFUL AND THEREFORE NOT OBVIOUS OVER THE PRIOR ART 37. Courts must take objective indicia of nonobviousness, also known as "secondary
considerations," into account before a conclusion on obviousness is reached. Glaverbel Societe Anonyme v. Northlake Marketing, 35 F.3d 1550, 1555 (Fed. Cir. 1995); Hybritech Inc. v. Monoclonal Antibodies, Inc., 802 F.2d 1367, 1380 (Fed. Cir. 1986). Secondary considerations include the commercial success of a product embodying the patented invention and the copying of the invention by others. In re Paulsen, 30 F.3d 1475, 1482 (Fed. Cir 1994). Chief Judge Markey of the Federal Circuit has remarked: "evidence of secondary considerations may often be the most probative and cogent evidence in the record." Stratoflex, Inc. v. Aeroquip Corp., 713 F.2d 1530, 1538-9 (Fed. Cir. 1983); see also Pro-Mold and Tool Co. v. Great Lakes Plastic Inc., 75 F.3d 1568, 1573 (Fed. Cir. 1996). 38. Claims 20 and 34 of the '329 patent and claim 6 of the '932 patent claims once-
weekly dosing regimens for risedronate sodium, for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. ACTONEL® once-weekly risedronate sodium tablets embody the invention of claims 20 and 34 of the '329 patent and claim 6 of the '932 patent `329 patent and are part of the ACTONEL® franchise. 39. Once-weekly ACTONEL® tablets were first offered for sale in June 2002. Prior to
the introduction of the once-weekly dosing regimen for ACTONEL® tablets, daily risedronate sodium therapy was available. 40. Teva is free to market risedronate sodium for the treatment and prevention of
osteoporosis as of January 2007.

Teva affirmatively decided to file an ANDA and to go forward with a costly and
time-consuming litigation all in the hopes that it could freely copy the once-weekly dosing regimen of the '329 and '932 patents. 42. From its introduction in May 2000 until June 2002, sales and prescription volumes
for the daily ACTONEL® product had been increasing at a constant trend. Immediately upon the introduction of the once-weekly dosing regimen, a seminal and fundamental shift upward is seen in this trend. 43. The only comparable fundamental shift is seen in the prescription volume trends of
the FOSAMAX® franchise, which also embodies the inventions claimed by the '329 patent. The dramatic shift only occurs within the FOSAMAX® and ACTONEL® franchises, and is attributable to the introduction of the once-weekly dosing regimens. 44. This fundamental increase in the prescription volume for ACTONEL® tablets
indicates a virtually immediate adoption of the once-weekly dosing regimen by both patients and physicians. 45. The fundamental increase in ACTONEL® brand sales and prescription volumes due
to the introduction of the once-weekly dosing regimen and is testimony to the commercial success of the regimen claimed in the '329 and '932 patents. 46. courtroom. The marketplace often measures the significance of an invention better than a Continental Can Co. v. Monsanto Co., 948 F.2d 1264, 1273 (Fed. Cir. 1991).
Secondary considerations such as commercial success "illuminate the technological and commercial environment of the inventor, and aid in understanding the state of the art at the time the invention was made." Id.

The commercial success of the once-weekly ACTONEL® tablets and Teva's
continued fight to copy these tablets is clear and weighty evidence of the nonobviousness of the invention of the once-weekly dosing regimen. MORRIS, NICHOLS, ARSHT & TUNNELL
