This case has quite a bit of history and in 2003, Seventh Circuit Judge Posner dismissed a patent infringement case involving paroxetine on the ground that the patent was not infringed.
In 2004, a panel of the Federal Circuit affirmed the judgment, on the alternate ground that the patent was invalid due to public use of the invention more than a year before the patent was applied for because Smithkline conducted clinical trials more than one year prior to filing of the patent application.
However, Smithkline argued that the clinical trials were an experimental use but the panel ruled that the use was not experimental.
