`

`
`Applicant's election without traverse of Invention II in the reply filed on January
`
`14™ 2013 is acknowledged.
`
`Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 112
`
`The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 112(a):
`2.
`(a) INGENERAL.—Thespecification shall contain a written description of the invention,
`and of the mannerand process of making and using it, in such full, clear, concise, and
`exact terms as to enable any person skilled in the art to which it pertains, or with which
`it is Most nearly connected, to make and use the same, and shall set forth the best
`mode contemplated by the inventor or joint inventor of carrying out the invention.
`
`The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 112 (pre-AlA), first paragraph:
`The specification shall contain a written description of the invention, and of the manner
`and process of making andusing it, in such full, clear, concise, and exact terms as to
`enable any person skilled in the art to which it pertains, or with whichit is most nearly
`connected, to make and use the same and shall set forth the best mode contemplated
`by the inventor of carrying out his invention.
`
`3.
`
`Claims 8 and 13 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 112(a) or 35 U.S.C. 112 (pre-AlA),
`
`first paragraph, as failing to comply with the written description requirement. The
`
`claim(s) contains subject matter which was not describedin the specification in such a
`
`way as to reasonably conveyto one skilled in the relevant art that the inventor or a joint
`
`inventor, or for pre-AlA the inventor(s), at the time the application wasfiled, had
`
`possession of the claimed invention. Claim 8 requires a longitudinal notch in
`
`combination with a carrier and a sharp, and at least functionally, an inserter as well.
`
`However, the longitudinal notch is disclosed as 6866 for receiving an inserter

`
`component and there does not appearto be anyothercarrier-like structure movably
`
`supporting sharp 6840. Claim 13 requires a plurality of cantilever members. This
`
`limitation cannot be foundin the originally filed disclosure.
`
`Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 103
`
`A,
`
`The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 103(a) which forms the basis for all
`
`obviousness rejections set forth in this Office action:
`
`(a) A patent may not be obtained though the invention is not identically disclosed or described as set
`forth in section 102 of thistitle, if the differences between the subject matter sought to be patented and
`the prior art are such that the subject matter as a whole would have been obvious at the time the
`invention was made to a person having ordinary skill in the art to which said subject matter pertains.
`Patentability shall not be negatived by the manner in which the invention was made.
`
`5.
`
`The factual inquiries set forth in Graham v. John Deere Co., 383 U.S. 1, 148
`
`USPQ 459 (1966), that are applied for establishing a background for determining
`
`obviousness under 35 U.S.C. 103(a) are summarized asfollows:
`
`wns
`
`Determining the scope and contents of the prior art.
`Ascertaining the differences between the prior art and the claims atissue.
`Resolving the level of ordinary skill in the pertinent art.
`Considering objective evidence presentin the application indicating
`obviousness or nonobviousness.
`
`6.
`
`Claims 6-8 and 10-15 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103(a) as being unpatentable
`
`over Ethelfield (US 2008/0009805).
`
`Regarding claim 6, Ethelfield disclose an apparatus for inserting a medical
`
`device through the skin of a subject, which comprises: a housing (810) including a
`
`cantilever member (840); a sharp (880) moveable within the housing from a retracted
`
`position to a partially exposed position (Figures 14A-14B).

`
`Ethelfield fails to disclose a sensor as claimed for the Figure 14 embodiment.
`
`Ethelfield suggests that the sensor devicesor infusion devices of the invention may be
`
`used with the same actuation device (paragraphs 0028 and 0063).
`
`It would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art at the time of
`
`Applicant's invention to have used the sensor 760/761 in place of the infusion device
`
`860/870 in order to combine the advantagesof the Figure 14 actuation unit and the
`
`sensor of Figure 13.
`
`With this combination the apparatus would further comprise: an electrochemical
`
`sensor 760/761 (paragraphs 0018 and 0019) releasably coupled to the sharp for
`
`movementwith the sharp (paragraph 0091), and for subsequentinsertion in the skin of
`
`a subject; and a carrier (housing at 850 in Figure 14C) for moveably supporting the
`
`sharp (Figure 14B) within the housing; wherein the cantilever member resiliently
`
`contacts the carrier (Figure 14B).
`
`Regarding claim 7, the housing comprises a distal opening (opening above 850
`
`in Figure 14C) for release of the electrochemical sensor therefrom.
`
`Regarding claim 8, the housing defines a longitudinal notch for reception of a
`
`drive memberof an inserter (in Figure 14A see notch holding portion at end of cantilever
`
`which can be considered as a drive member; no drive member is structurally claimed).
`
`Regarding claim 10, the housing defines one or more longitudinal ridges (at 810
`
`in Figure 14C)for aligning one of the sharp and the sensor.
`
`Regarding claim 11, Ethelfield discloses an apparatus for inserting a sensor
`
`comprising: a housing (810) including a cantilever member(840); a medical device

`
`including a sensor (obvious to provide sensor 760/761 in place of 860/870 as explained
`
`above) moveably and releasably held within the housing; and a sharp (880) releasably
`
`coupled to the medical device and supporting the sensor (sensor needle 760 and
`
`needle 880 would mutually support eachother), wherein the cantilever memberretains
`
`the medical device within the housing when the medical deviceis in a retracted position
`
`(Figure 14B) and the cantilever member releases the medical device when the medical
`
`device is in a distal position (Figure 14C).
`
`Regarding claim 12, the cantilever member includes a finger (left side end of
`
`cantilever in Figure 14A) and wherein the finger is shaped to engage an edge of the
`
`medical device.
`
`Regarding claim 13, the housing includesa plurality of cantilever members
`
`(each arm of the L-shaped member 840 can be considered a cantilever as claimed).
`
`Regarding claim 14, the cantilever member is laterally displaced when the
`
`medical device moves from the retracted position to the distal position (Figures 14A-
`
`14B).
`
`Regarding claim 15, the apparatus further comprising a carrier (881) for
`
`moveably holding the sharp in the housing wherein the carrier remains holding the
`
`sharp while the medical device movesfrom the retracted position to the distal position.
`
`7.
`
`Claim 9 is rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103(a) as being unpatentable over Ethelfield
`
`(US 2008/0009805)in view of Sakata et al. (US 2006/0047220).
`
`Regarding claim 9, Ethelfield fails to disclose a desiccant.

`
`Sakata et al. teach providing a desiccant in proximity to a sensor in order to
`
`maintain its quality (paragraph 0073).
`
`It would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art at the time of
`
`Applicant's invention to have provided a sensor within the housing (in 850 or elsewhere)
`
`in order to maintain the quality of the sensor (760/761) as taught by Sakata et al.
