Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 226 / Friday, November 23, 2018 / Notices
Notice of interim patent term
extension.
ACTION:
The United States Patent and
Trademark Office has issued an order
granting interim extension for a oneyear interim extension of the term of
U.S. Patent No. 8,311,629.
SUMMARY:
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
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 October 26, 2018, Impulse
Dynamic N.V., the patent owner of
record, timely filed an application
under 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5) for an interim
extension of the term of U.S. Patent No.
8,311,629. The patent claims the
medical device, the OPTIMIZER Smart
Implantable Pulse Generator. The
application for patent term extension
indicates that a Premarket Approval
Application (PMA) P180036 was
submitted to the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) on September 5,
2018.
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 original
expiration date of the patent, November
16, 2018, 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.
8,311,629 is granted for a period of one
year from the original expiration date of
the patent.
