(‘‘Amgen’’) of Thousand Oaks, California. 71 FR 27742 (May 12, 2006). The complaint asserted a violation of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, 19 U.S.C. 1337, in the importation into the United States, sale for importation, or sale within the United States after importation of certain products and pharmaceutical compositions containing recombinant human erythropoietin by reason of infringement of claims 1 and 2 of U.S. Patent No. 5,441,868, claims 3, 4, 5, and 11 of U.S. Patent No. 5,547,933, claims 4–9 of U.S. Patent No. 5,618,698, claims 4 and 6 of U.S. Patent No. 5,621,080, claim 7 of U.S. Patent No. 5,756,349, and claim 1 of U.S. Patent No. 5,955,422.

On May 19, 2006, Roche moved for summary determination of no violation of section 337, stating that its activities fell within the safe harbor created by 35 U.S.C. 271(e)(1) which provides that ‘‘[i]t shall not be an act of infringement to make, use, offer to sell, or sell within the United States or import into the United States a patented invention . . . solely for uses reasonably related to the development and submission of information under a Federal law which regulates the manufacture, use, or sale of drugs or veterinary biological products.’’ Amgen opposed the motion.

Respondents and the IA filed oppositions to the petition for review. Amgen also filed a motion for leave to reply to the oppositions to its petition for review. Having considered the petition for review, the oppositions thereto, and the relevant portions of the record, the Commission has determined not to review the ID and to deny Amgen’s motion for leave. This action is taken under the authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337, and section 210.42(h) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure, 19 CFR 210.42(h).
