Re: The holiday patent.

Actually, I never thought the patent would provide any protection against other SPRMs using a drug holiday, I always considered it just an attempt at a time extension for Proellex. The prov. app. will not determin the claims (it can list claims, but they are not that significant). As it is harder to get broader claims past the examiner, it is quite possible they will be narrowed down in scope.

If they really did get a patent issued that claimed the holiday concept for any SPRM, then I agree with you.

I never did realise provisional patent applications are not published.
