Amgen Inc. v. F. Hoffmann-LaRoche LTD et al Doc. 1340 Case 1:05-cv-12237-WGY Document 1340 Filed 10/10/2007 Page 1 of 10 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS AMGEN, INC., Plaintiff, v. Civil Action No. 05-CV-12237 WGY F. HOFFMANN-LA ROCHE, LTD., ROCHE DIAGNOSTICS GMBH, and HOFFMANN-LA ROCHE, INC. Defendants. ROCHE'S LIST OF PRIOR ART AND CHART IDENTIFYING CLAIMS BY CATEGORY REQUESTED BY THE COURT AT THE OCTOBER 4, 2007 AFTERNOON HEARING In accordance with the Court's request at the October 4, 2007 afternoon hearing, Roche hereby submits (1) a chart identifying each of the asserted claims as product claims, process claims or product-by-process claims, (2) a list of each of those exhibits that Roche claims to anticipate any of the claims in suit, and (3) a list of all exhibits which constitute prior art in this case.1 Roche's understanding is that these exhibit lists are intended for the jury. Therefore, Roche has not included on these lists any exhibit relevant only to its contentions of obviousness type double patenting, which the Court has reserved as bench issues. Roche will of course provide those to the Court if it desires. 1 1 Dockets.Justia.com Case 1:05-cv-12237-WGY Document 1340 Filed 10/10/2007 Page 2 of 10 CLAIM CHART Product `868 `698 `349 `933 Process 1 and 2 6-9 7 11 and 14 (each depending from product by process claims) Product by Process `422 9, 12 (each depending from product by process claims) 1 3, 7, 8 Roche notes that Amgen has no objections to the claim chart, with the exception that Amgen stylizes `933 claims 11 and 14 as "methods for treating" claims. Whether stylized in this manner or not, such claims are therefore clearly process claims, which depend from product-by-process claims. 2 Case 1:05-cv-12237-WGY Document 1340 Filed 10/10/2007 Page 3 of 10 ANTICIPATORY PRIOR ART (Amgen disputes each of the exhibits Roche identified as being anticipatory prior art) Prior art publications demonstrating anticipation under 35 U.S.C. §§102(a) or (b) TRX 2002 2088 0019 2049 2049A 2050 2004 2045 0008 0009 2060 2068 2079 2051 2052 2053 DESCRIPTION Miyake et al, "Purification of Human Erythropoietin", J.
