AGIPNEWS4346 BIO Reacts to Supreme Court Ruling on Obviousness ag-ip-news.com (Intellectual Property News Agency): "“Our decision to file a brief in this case had less to do with the specific facts of this case than with the general principle that courts have to proceed carefully in declaring patents obvious based on prior art.”
“Upon first blush, the Supreme Court appears to agree that courts need to apply a careful and deliberate analysis to the question of obviousness, focusing on the predictability of the results of the invention. The impact of the decision on the biotechnology sector will be determined by how the opinion is applied by lower court judges and Patent and Trademark Office examiners.”"
