SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
This patent-based section 337 investigation was instituted by the Commission based on a complaint filed by Inamed Corporation ("Inamed") of Santa Barbara, California. 69 FR 35676 (June 25, 2004). The complainant alleged violations of section 337 in the importation into the United States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after importation of certain injectable implant compositions by reason of infringement of claims 1, 2, 7, 12, 18, 20, 25, 26 and 30-34 of U.S. Patent No. 4,803,075. The complaint, as amended, named Q-Med Aktiebolag of Uppsala Sweden, Medicis Aesthetics, Inc., of Scottsdale, Arizona, and McKesson Corporation, McKesson Health Solutions of Arizona, Inc., and McKesson Supply Solutions, all of San Francisco, California, as respondents.
On March 23, 2005, Inamed and the respondents filed a joint motion to terminate the investigation as to all parties based on withdrawal of the complaint. On April 4, 2005, the Commission investigative attorney filed a response in support of the motion. On April 5, 2005, the ALJ issued an ID (Order No. 33) granting the parties' joint motion for termination of the investigation. No petitions to review the ID were filed. The Commission has determined not to review this ID.
Issued: April 18, 2005.
