regulatory review is anticipated to

extend beyond the expiration date of the

patent.

On November 17, 2000, patent owner

Pharmacia & Upjohn, S.p.A., filed an

application under 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5)

for a third interim extension of the term

of U.S. Patent No. 4,229,449. The patent

claims the active ingredient roboxetine

mesylate (VestraTM). The application

indicates a New Drug Application for

the human drug product roboxetine

mesylate (VestraTM) has been filed and

is currently undergoing regulatory

review before the Food and Drug

Administration for permission to market

or use the product commercially. The

original term of the patent expired on

January 8, 1999, and has been

previously extended under 35 U.S.C.

156(d)(5) to January 9, 2001.

Review of the 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. Since it is apparent that the

regulatory review period will extend

beyond the extended expiration date of

the patent, the term of the patent is

extended under 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5) for

a term of one year from January 9, 2001.

Dated: January 19, 2001.

Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual

Property and Director of the United States
