Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 112 The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 112(b): (b) CONCLUSION.— The specification shall conclude with one or more claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the inventor or a joint inventor regards as the invention. The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 112 (pre-AIA), second paragraph: The specification shall conclude with one or more claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the applicant regards as his invention. Claims 22-25 and 27 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 112(b) or 35 U.S.C. 112 (pre-AIA), 2 nd paragraph, as being indefinite for failing to particularly point out and distinctly claim the subject matter which the inventor or a joint inventor (or for applications subject to pre-AIA 35 U.S.C. 112, the applicant(s)), regards as the invention. In particular, c laim 2 2 is rejected for lacking clarity and for being vague, ambiguous and indefinite for recitation of term “conditions” or “visceral conditions” as associated with the following phrase s : “ gastrointestinal disorders or condition s ” ; “ symptoms of pain associated with gastrointestinal diseases or other visceral conditions ” ; and “ pulmonary diseases or conditions ” diseases ; and for not distinguishing between : broad and non-specific terms (i.e., could mean any GI- related or pulmonary related state, from a transient symptom to a severe disease, without defining the scope ) diseases vs conditions GI/Pulmonary Condition A broader term for any state of health affecting the GI or pulmonary system, regardless of whether it is disease or disorder. Visceral Condition A condition affecting the internal organs (viscera) of the GI or pulmonary systems, often involving visceral pain, motility, or function. Lacking structural or functional specificity (i.e., unlike a named disorder, it does not describe a particular pathological process, making it impossible to determine the exact scope of the claimed invention ) . Failing to define the boundaries (i.e., could cover multiple distinct diseases, each with different diagnostic, treatment, and functional impacts, without narrowing to a particular embodiment ) . Such that the claims defined indeterminate phrases and definitions that fail to provide a clear, precise, and enabling definition, such that the metes and bounds of the claims cannot be determined with reasonable certainty by a person of ordinary skill in art. Accordingly, claim 22 should be rewritten to incorporate the specific definitions o f claims 23 to 25, while drawing distinctions between disease s vs condition s as supported by the actual specification or simply amending the claim to remove all term s that recited “conditions ” . Claim 23 recite examples of a broad range or limitation together with a narrow range or limitation that falls within the broad range or limitation (in the same claim ) , which may be considered indefinite if the resulting claim does not clearly set forth the metes and bounds of the patent protection desired. See MPEP § 2173.05(c). In the present instance, claim 23 recites : the broad recitation and the narrower statement of the range/limitation A mast cell related disorders mast cell activation syndrome, clonal mast cell disorder, monoclonal mast cell activation syndrome, idiopathic urticaria, idiopathic anaphylaxis), B infectious diarrhea Clostridium difficile, Salmonella, Shigella toxin Appropriate correction is required accordingly. 2, 3 & 4.
