Opinion on Patent Prosecution for drug, pharmaceutical and medicine based Patent Specifications filed before the Indian Patent Office
Patent Search Strategy to be followed for Pharmaceutical Inventions:
Comprehensive patent search strategy will be followed by the Indian Patent examiners. The patent search strings will include a combination of various search parameters. The search parameters will be a combination of keywords, International Patent Classification (IPC), and compound searches. Thorough prior art search is expected to be carried out in patent as well as non-patent databases.
Pharmaceutical Compounds can be searched and identified from the various databases:
a) Molecular formula and structural formula searching;
b) Name searching using IUPAC nomenclature;
c) Compound searching using CAS Registry Numbers;
d) Generic name searching (INN); and
e) Search using International Patent Classification (IPC)

ANALYTICS OF PATENT CASE RULINGS: EMPIRICAL EVALUATION OF MODELS FOR LEGAL RE...Kripa (कृपा) Rajshekhar
Recent progress in incorporating word order and semantics to the decades-old, tried-and-tested bag-of-words representation of text meaning has yielded promising results in computational text classification and analysis. This development, and the availability of a large number of legal rulings from the PTAB (Patent Trial and Appeal Board motivated us to revisit possibilities for practical, computational models of legal relevance -- starting with this narrow and approachable niche of jurisprudence. We present results from our analysis and experiments towards this goal using a corpus of approximately 8000 rulings from the PTAB. This work makes three important contributions towards the development of models for legal relevance semantics: (a) Using state-of-art Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods, we characterize the diversity and types of semantic relationships that are implicit in select judgements of legal relevance at the PTAB (b) We achieve new state-of-art results on practical information retrieval tasks using our customized semantic representations on this corpus (c) We outline promising avenues for future work in the area - including preliminary evidence from human-in-loop interaction, and new forms of text representation developed using input from over a hundred interviews with practitioners in the field. Using the PTAB data set for testing relevance in patent document retrieval, instead of traditional citations search, also shows a bigger gap between the needs of practitioners and the capabilities of current information retrieval and NLP technologies.
Patentability of Computer Related Inventions (CRIs) in IndiaArun Narasani
The patentability requirements for Computer Related Inventions (CRIs) under Indian Patent Law have been unclear. It is generally understood that a CRI must demonstrate “technical effect” and the relevant claims must have “machine limitation”, in addition to the basic patentability requirements of novelty, inventive step, and industrial applicability.
However, the phrase “technical effect” has not been defined properly. Further, the legal basis for technical effect requirement has not been clarified.
In this session, we will take a close look at the guidelines for examination of CRIs published recently by the Indian Patent Office to gain some insights regarding the "technical effect" requirement.
Take Aways:
- Understand evolution of patent law with reference protection of CRIs
- Understand “technical effect” requirement and legal basis for the requirement
- Understand patentability of CRIs in India through examples

Query Enhancement for Patent Prior-Art-Search Based on Keyterm Dependency Rel...Ly Nguyen
The thesis proposes a method to improve patent prior art search by formulating queries using keyterm dependency relations and semantic tags extracted from patent documents. Experiments are conducted to determine the best field or combination of fields for query formulation and the optimal query size. The results show significant improvements over baseline methods, with queries formulated from the description field or combining abstract, claims, and description fields performing best. Re-ranking search results based on IPC codes further aids in retrieving relevant prior art patents. The thesis contributes by combining keyterm extraction with semantic tags to formulate effective queries for prior art search.

Patentability Search or Patent Novelty Search by U.S. Patent Attorney Trained Patent Expert. The patent expert will take into account international patent classification (IPC) and USPC to identify the patent results. The patent researchers can also perform patent Invalidity , patent Landscaping, Freedom-To-Operate, and Invalidity Search.
For an invention to get a patent the potential invention must be new, useful, and non-obvious. A Patentability Search, called a Patent Novelty Search or simply a Novelty Search, is a search of prior art (the body of pre-existing knowledge) conducted on behalf of a potential patent applicant.
The term ‘global patent’ comes from the Latin word ‘patent-em’, which means ‘public.’ A patent is a declaration issued by the government to the creator that allows them to create, use, and sell the invention. Unlike patents, the dominance occurred when creations were not revealed and only sold to a limited number of people.

Is Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) a good career option in India?
Before answering this question, I ask myself why I do what I do every morning. Am I passionate about my day? IPR is a fascinating field and apt for people who wants answers to questions related to what, why, when and how. IPR is a field of law protecting creations of mind in form of ideas, inventions, brands, trademarks, copyrights, software codes, industrial design registration and trade secrets. However, if research is not your cup of tea then please do not enter this field. You have to passionate about innovations. Many people enter this field because it is a high paying job in the long run compared to normal 9-5 jobs in India. However, not everyone will be able to sustain in this field in the long run. Therefore, be wise before entering this field. You should be fascinated by technologies around you, have a problem solving approach, and be compassionate towards your peers.
How can a life science PhD begin with career in IPR?
Life science is study of life processes. The scope of PhD in IPR is better as the person is familiar with research. The best way to move forward is to do online IPR courses and get an overview of IPR. One should have interest and passion to solve the queries related to the intellectual creations of mind. One should have problem solving approach as client is looking for solutions.
What are the required skill sets?
First and foremost, the person should have technology and legal acumen to understand innovations and have a research capability to work at least for 10-12 hours. Thinking out of the box to solve a research project is the key to assisting inventors to protect their inventions.
How does a career in IP evolve/grow in India?
The individuals I have come across are passionate about protecting innovations. To evolve in this field you have to be technology savvy. The Intellectual Property law has evolved a lot in last 10 years. Now a trademark can be registered in less than one month in India with proper documentation. The Indian government is giving a number of grants to startups in India to grow by leap and bounds.
What is the kind of work one is expected to do and what are the skill sets one can acquire over the course?

Abstract -- In covid situation, most businesses have reviewed
their existing contracts to understand scope of parties involved
and thereby Intellectual Property clauses and sub-clauses of any
contract or agreement become very important. Private blockchain
implementation in the current scenario is key to the maze to
protect trade secrets in a confidential manner.
Progressive IP strategy and partnering with right partners to
create and maintain sustainable development positions in the
market to serve customers and catering to their needs is the need
of the hour. Proactive strategic signed contracts and agreements
should be mandatory for smooth functioning of any start-up or
enterprise. Negotiation, Mediation and Arbitration are like trinity
in law to resolve any arising conflict.

I. INTRODUCTION
EVERY technology launch contributes to macroeconomic
growth of the country. Contracts and agreements drafted around
technology licensing or assignments play a pivotal role as to
how developed innovation would be deployed in different
verticals. Over the last one decade, we have witnessed a very
strong nonlinear curve and especially with what forms part of
terms and conditions to exert control over under applicable
contract law while collaborating with different parties to
manage successful ventures in Industry 4.0 operating in
multiple jurisdictions and protecting trade secrets.
Primarily, contracts and proper agreements in place sets the
ambit right to protect trade secrets of technology driven startup ventures. Understanding Intellectual property landscape and
conducting IP due-diligence is very important and is essentially
a first step to understand short-term and long-term goals to
prepare rock solid IP strategy with a holistic viewpoint.
Intellect is the creation of the mind and protecting intellectual
capacity by utilizing different IPRs is key to deliver market cap
results. In covid situation, most businesses have reviewed their
existing contracts to understand scope of parties involved and

Patent provides the right to exclude others from making, using, selling, offering for sale, or importing the patented invention for the term of the patent, usually 20 years from the filing date. A patent is, in effect, a limited property right that the government offers to inventors in exchange for their agreement to share the details of their inventions with the public. Like any other property right, it may be sold, licensed, mortgaged, assigned or transferred, given away, or simply abandoned.
In order to obtain a patent, an applicant must provide a written description of his or her invention in sufficient detail for a person skilled in the art (i.e., the relevant area of technology) to make and use the invention.

Dear Sir,
RE: Comments on Draft Guidelines for Examination of Patent Applications in
the Field of Pharmaceuticals dated 20 March, 2014. Response to be submitted
to a.chakaraborti@nic.in
On 28 February, the Indian Patent Office (IPO) published Draft Guidelines for
Examination of Patent Applications in the Field of Pharmaceuticals. We highly
appreciate the steps undertaken by your office for issuance of above- mentioned
guidelines. However, we have certain apprehensions and the same have been
explained herein-below for your kind perusal.
Comments:

3. 4. Claims of Pharmaceutical Inventions
Markush Claims:
With regards to various terms / definitions included in the referenced section, we
respectfully submit that the use of Markush claim structures can leave the
multinational pharmaceutical companies or the Indian drug companies unprotected
when structurally diverse compounds with the same activity for e.g. bioisosteres are
identified. Further, it should be noted that the currently available field-based
processes allow the routine detection of such bioisosteres and can be used to
evaluate patent positions, strengthen the process of new patent filings and select
innovative chemistry methods to get over existing chemical patents.
A simple example of a Markush formula is as follows:
R1 – R2
wherein R1 is phenyl or 1-naphthalene, and R2 is chlorine or bromine.
This patent claim would include chlorobenzene, bromobenzene, 1-
chloronaphthalene and 1-bromonaphthalene. However, for determining novelty of
Indian Intellectual Property Law Firm– Tech Corp Legal | Business Consulting – Tech Corp
International Consultants, Singapore (www.techcorpgroup.com) Email: prity.k@techcorplegal.com
4. the invention, a prior art disclosure of even just one of these compounds in the prior
art document would render the claim lacking in novelty.
Further, a typical Markush claim might be constructed using language such as “an
alcohol of the formula R-OH, wherein R is selected from the group consisting of
CH3-, CH3CH2- and (CH3)2CH-”. In practice, for the purposes of the patent claims,
each of the potential combinations of substituents is considered to be equivalent and
have ‘unity of invention’. For example, in the case of a pharmaceutical drug, all of
the potential structures are assumed to have the same efficacy, side effects and
other biological properties which are difficult to determine.
For a patent examiner to conduct prior art search for a markush claim claiming a
number of compounds is virtually impossible, the search of the patent office and the
corresponding patent claims granted should be limited to what has been actually
assessed and supported by the examples provided in the detailed description of
the patent specification.
Moreover, the patent examiner should make a note that patent claims covering a
large range of compounds should not be allowed. If the patent specification provide
Indian Intellectual Property Law Firm– Tech Corp Legal | Business Consulting – Tech Corp
International Consultants, Singapore (www.techcorpgroup.com) Email: prity.k@techcorplegal.com
5. sufficient disclosure, such as fusion point, Infrared Absorption Spectrum (IR) or
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), and the like obtained through true testing
and experimentation results to enable the reproduction by the disclosed method of
every embodiment of the invention for which protection is sought by the patent
claims, the said patent claims covering a large range of compounds can be allowed.
However, patent claims of limited scope could be granted if evidence is provided at
least that, with the substitution of any member within the same family class, the
same disclosed result would be obtained. The scope of the patent claims should
be limited to what is actually enabled by the patent disclosure and the examples
cited in the patent specification.
If the members of the Markush group are sufficiently less in number or so closely
related in patent claims that a search and examination of the entire claim can be
made, the patent examiner must examine all the members of the Markush group
in the patent claim on the merits, even though they are directed to independent
and distinct inventions.

6. 5. Prior Art Search
With regards to conducting a prior art search by the patent examiner included in
the referenced section, we respectfully submit that the patent examiner should also
take into account patent family status of corresponding foreign applications and
review the prior art patent applications and non-patent literature cited by
foreign patent examiners. Moreover, the examiner should design and frame a
comprehensive patent search strategy and analyse backward patent citations
and forward patent citations of the highly relevant prior art that impacts on the
patentability of the patent specification during the patent examination stage. The
first examination report (FER) issued by the patent examiner should not be limited
to the prior art cited in International Search Report (ISR) issued with the PCT
document and extensive additional search should be conducted.

International Consultants, Singapore (www.techcorpgroup.com) Email: prity.k@techcorplegal.com
7. 7. Assessment of Novelty:
7.4 Implicit disclosure:
With regards to the point of implicit disclosure, we respectfully submit that the prior
art is read through the understanding of the person skilled in the art, and as a result
the implicit features of a specification may also be taken into account for
determining novelty of the invention. Subsequently, if the person skilled in the art
would read a specification as including a particular feature without it being
specifically mentioned it would be considered an implicit feature of that disclosure.
In particular, the operating conditions used in a process will need to be very
similar in order to sustain an argument that a reaction or process will inevitably give
the same product. For example, a claim defines an industrial process for preparing a
product comprising a particular ratio of compounds A and B wherein a set of
steps are carried out using specific reaction parameters for e.g. pH, temperature,
and the like. However, a prior art citation discloses a similar process for preparing a
mixture of A and B, but does not disclose the specific ratio of these components
claimed in the present application. In this particular case, it may be necessary to
Indian Intellectual Property Law Firm– Tech Corp Legal | Business Consulting – Tech Corp
International Consultants, Singapore (www.techcorpgroup.com) Email: prity.k@techcorplegal.com
8. consider the examples described in the prior art specification in order to determine
whether the one or more parameters are sufficiently similar that it could be
concluded that the prior art disclosure would inevitably provide the presently claimed
ratio.
7.9 Product-by-process claims:
With a view to understand product-by-process claim in detail the patent examiner
should take into consideration that product-by-process claim is one in which the
product is defined in whole or in part in terms of the process used to manufacture
the product, instead of solely by structure, composition, properties or characteristics.
We respectfully submit that product-by-process claims fall into either the statutory
category of article of manufacture or composition of matter claims. Moreover, when
the structure of a product is unknown, and the product cannot adequately be defined
in terms of composition, structure, properties or characteristics, a product-by-process
claim may be allowable. These patent claims are in particular relevant for
biological products or polymers that cannot be defined in terms of their structure or
composition.

International Consultants, Singapore (www.techcorpgroup.com) Email: prity.k@techcorplegal.com
9. 8. ASSESSMENT OF INVENTIVE STEP:
8.7 Hindsight Analysis:
We respectfully submit that the patent examiner should attempt to place themselves
in the shoes of the person skilled in the art faced with the problem. This is difficult in
practice since the examiner approaches the consideration having both the problem
and the solution in hand. To assess the inventive step of the invention, the patent
examiner should identify the claimed inventive concept, by assuming the onus of the
normally skilled but unimaginative addressee in the art at the priority date and to
ascribe to him what was, at that date, common general knowledge of the art in
question. Subsequently, identify what, if any, differences exist between the matter
cited as being "known or used" and the alleged invention. The patent examiner
should determine the “inventive step” without any knowledge of the alleged
invention, whether these differences constitute steps which would have been
obvious to the person skilled in the art or whether they require any degree of

10. 9. Industrial applicability
We respectfully submit that the word "Industry" should be understood in its broadest
sense and includes any functional and practical activity as distinct from intellectual or
aesthetic activity. In general there must be something in which a new and useful
effect, be it creation or alteration, may be observed. It need not be an article or
substance nor necessarily involve a manufacturing process, but it must be useful in
practical affairs.
10. Inventions not patentable:
10.12 Section 3(e): Mere Admixture Resulting Only In Aggregation Of The
Properties Or A Method Of Making Such Mere Admixture
10.17: Illustrative examples for section 3(e):
With respect to examples cited in the guidelines, we respectfully submit that the
following Intellectual Property Appellate Board(IPAB) order is of particular
importance as it is a classic case where IPAB revoked Indian Patent granted to
Kibow Biotech INC, titled “A process of making pharmaceutical composition”
bearing patent grant number IN205478 and the Intellectual Property Appellate

11. Board(IPAB) upheld Patent Revocation Petition filed by Gujarat based La Renon
Health Care for the product patent titled “Compositions for Augmenting Kidney
Function” for patent No.224100 granted to Kibow Biotech Inc.
On 13th November, 2013 Intellectual Property Appellate Board (IPAB) upheld
Patent Revocation Petition filed by Gujarat based La Renon Health Care Pvt.
Ltd for patent No.224100 granted to Kibow Biotech Inc., for the patent
invention “Compositions for Augmenting Kidney Function” under the provisions
of the Indian Patents Act, 1970. However, on the same day, Intellectual Property
Appellate Board (IPAB) revoked Indian Patent granted to Kibow Biotech INC,
titled “A process of making pharmaceutical composition” bearing patent grant
number IN205478 under the provisions of the Indian Patents Act, 1970.
The IPAB found that the granted patent No.224100 is not obvious in view of the prior
art documents cited by La Renon HealthCare. The inventive composition of the
patent comprises at least one probiotics bacteria of a certain kind, in a certain
composition and it is not a mere admixture and is patentable under the Indian
Patent Act, 1970. As stated by IPAB “the invention covers a new and inventive

12. composition comprising at least one probiotic bacteria of a certain kind, in a
certain composition and along with other additives (such as vitamins etc) that
confer synergistic impact, enabling the augmentation of kidney function. By
no stretch of imagination can this unique composition be labelled as mere
admixture.”
However, from time to time, India has been held responsible by foreign
pharmaceutical and biotech companies that India’s patent ecosystem is weak and
doesn’t encourage innovation nor provides adequate patent protection to research
and development activities. However, recent judgement of Intellectual Property
Appellate Board (IPAB) has been ruled in favour of US-based biotechnology
company Kibow, headed by Natarajan Ranganathan upholding its initial patent and
affirming that the company’s break through probiotic dietary supplement sold under
the brand name “Renadyl” capsules is patentable in India. Therefore, Kibow
Biotech’s win in patent battle for its probiotic dietary supplement, ‘Renadyl’ in Indian
court, has busted the myth that we completely lack ecosystem for patent protection.
