FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mary C. Till by telephone at (571) 272–
7755; by mail marked to her attention
and addressed to the Commissioner for
Patents, Mail Stop Hatch-Waxman PTE,

Section
156 of Title 35, United States Code,
generally provides that the term of a
patent may be extended for a period of
up to five years if the patent claims a
product, or a method of making or using
a product, that has been subject to
certain defined regulatory review, and
that the patent may be extended for
interim periods of up to one year if the
regulatory review is anticipated to
extend beyond the expiration date of the
patent.
On May 9, 2017, Scripps Research
Institute, the patent owner of record,
timely filed an application under 35
U.S.C. 156(d)(5) for a second interim
extension of the term of U.S. Patent No.
5,912,231. The patent claims a
composition of the active ingredient
pexiganan of the human drug product
LOCILEX®. The application for patent
term extension indicates that New Drug
Application (NDA) 29–930 was
submitted to the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) on July 24, 1998.
Review of the patent term extension
application indicates that, except for
permission to market or use the product
commercially, the subject patent would
be eligible for an extension of the patent
term under 35 U.S.C. 156, and that the
patent should be extended for one year
as required by 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5)(B).
Because the regulatory review period
will continue beyond the extended
expiration date of the patent, June 15,
2017, interim extension of the patent
term under 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5) is
appropriate.
An interim extension under 35 U.S.C.
156(d)(5) of the term of U.S. Patent No.
5,912,231 is granted for a period of one
year from the extended expiration date
of the patent.
