Last week, the Supreme Court granted Amgen’s petition for certiorari to reconsider the enablement requirement for genus claims. The Supreme Court will review whether the Federal Circuit panel in Amgen v. Sanofi improperly created a new and heightened test for enablement of genus claims with functional limitations. The Supreme Court declined to review Amgen’s first question in the petition regarding whether enablement is a question of fact to be determined by the jury or a question of law determined by the court. Notably, the Supreme Court granted Amgen’s petition for certiorari against the recommendation of the Solicitor General.
