- Abstract
- This paper suggests better jurisprudence on novelty determination of an enantiomer
invention, which is a type of selection invention. For the suggestion, it first crafts an
upgraded definition of a selection invention and then analyzes standards of novelty
determination of selection invention and enantiomer invention in the U.S.A, Europe,
Japan and Korea. Based on such analysis, this paper proclaims new standards of
novelty determination of enantiomer invention as follows: (1) express disclosure
requirement must be case-by-case determined on whether resolution method from
racemate to enantiomer at issue was specifically disclosed; (2) enabling requirement
of prior art must be separately and additionally determined; (3) in determining
express disclosure requirement, the concept of skilled person must not be applied and
only single prior must be compared; and (4) determination of enabling requirement
must be based on the skilled person's own knowledge. As a conclusion, this paper
claims that such law which fundamentally denies novelty of an enantiomer invention
is not appropriate and that we should induce relevant research and development
activities by establishing a proper inventive step standard.
