In re Swartz, 232 F.3d 862, 864 (Fed. Cir. 2000) is illustrative. In that case, the PTO provided several references showing that results in the area of cold fusion were irreproducible. The court found that these references "provided substantial evidence that those skilled in the art would 'reasonably doubt' the asserted utility and operability of cold fusion." Id. at 864. And the evidentiary burden then shifted to Swartz to submit "evidence of operability that would be sufficient to overcome reasonable doubt," i.e., evidence sufficient to convince a person of skill in the art of the invention's asserted utility. Id. Failing to satisfy this evidentiary burden, the court found that "the Board did not err in concluding that the utility of Mr. Swartz's claimed process had not been established and that his application did not satisfy the enablement requirement." Id.

Citing Leo Pharmaceutical Products, Ltd. v. Rea, 726 F.3d 1346 (Fed. Cir. 2013) as controlling precedent, Appellants contend "[i]f the claimed methods were in fact obvious over the combination of cited disclosures, one would not expect it to have taken decades for such a combination to have been made." (Appeal Br. 17, 19.) We agree with the Examiner (Final Action 21-22; Ans. 14--15) that Leo Pharmaceuticals does not control the outcome here. In Leo Pharmaceuticals, the fact that decades separated the prior art was not in and of itself sufficient to establish non-obviousness; indeed, the timing was simply icing on the cake. Leo Pharmaceuticals, 726 F.3d at 1356-57 (finding, before even reaching the secondary considerations, that there was no motivation to combine or expectation of success; the problem was not known, the possible approaches to solving the problem were not known or finite, and the solution was not predictable.)

The court noted that "the objective indicia-taken in sum" was probative of nonobviousness-that evidence included significant unexpected results showing the prior art formulations resulted in degradation of a component that the prior art did not even recognize had a stability problem, as well as commercial success. Id. at 1358-59, 1350-51, 1353-54. In contrast to the facts of Leo Pharmaceuticals, here, Appellants have not established any unexpected results or solution to an unrecognized problem.

The principle of "rearrangement of the parts" finds its roots in In re Japikse, 181 F.2d 1019, 1023 (CCPA 1950). There, claims were held unpatentable because rearranging the position of a starting switch would not have modified the operation of the device. Id. But, Japikse does not stand for a per se rule of obviousness simply through rearrangement of individual parts nor does it displace the requirement of an articulated reason to support the proposed modification. See In re Fritch, 972 F.2d 1260, 1266 (Fed. Cir. 1992).

 There is no such evidence of unexpected results, or indeed of any results, present in the instant application comparing the claimed composition with Schriewer' s disclosed compound. This analysis is consistent with Wilder, where the court found that "one who claims a compound, per se, which is structurally similar to a prior art compound must rebut the presumed expectation that the structurally similar compounds have similar properties." In re Wilder, 563 F.2d 457, 460 (CCPA 1977).

Our reviewing court has instructed that:

[U]nder the broadest reasonable interpretation, the Board's construction "cannot be divorced from the specification and the record evidence," In re NTP, Inc., 654 F.3d 1279, 1288 (Fed. Cir. 2011 ), and "must be consistent with the one that those skilled in the art would reach," In re Cortright, 165 F.3d 1353, 1358 (Fed. Cir. 1999). A construction that is "unreasonably broad" and which does not "reasonably reflect the plain language and disclosure" will not pass muster.

Microsoft Corp. v. Proxyconn, Inc., 789 F.3d 1292, 1298 (Fed. Cir. 2015) (quoting In re Suitco Surface, Inc., 603 F.3d 1255, 1260 (Fed. Cir. 2010)).
