These facts are similar to those in Purdue Pharma L.P. v. Faulding, Inc., where “a characteristic that is not discussed even in passing in the disclosure” was claimed and then made the characteristic the basis of claims that cover any formulation having that characteristic.  230 F.3d 1320, 1327 (Fed. Cir. 2000).  According to the court, “this is exactly the type of overreaching the written description requirement was designed to guard against.”  Id.

Discovery of a problem that was previously unrecognized can show that a solution to that problem would not have been obvious. See Eibel Process Co. v. Minnesota & Ontario Paper Co., 261 U.S. 45 (1923). “In Eibel Process, the invention was a machine that could make quality paper at high speeds.” Purdue Pharma L.P. v. Epic Pharma, LLC, 811 F.3d 1345, 1352 (Fed. Cir. 2016). “Eibel discovered that the unequal speeds of paper stock and a wire in the machine produced [] wrinkled paper. Thus, he made a minor modification in the existing paper-making machines.” Id. “The Supreme Court upheld the validity of Eibel’s patent, reasoning that the discovery of the problem—unequal speeds of paper stock and the wire—was nonobvious, and thus the solution was as well.” Id.

In Allergan v. Sandoz, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit stated that “a claim that recites a property that is necessarily inherent in a formulation that is adequately described is not invalid as lacking written description merely because the property itself is not explicitly described.”  Allergan, Inc. v. Sandoz Inc., 796 F.3d 1293, 1309 (Fed. Cir. 2015).
