          Appeal No. 94-2990                                                          
          Application 07/932,577                                                      


          organ transplant recipients.  We find none.  Moreover, the record           
          in its entirety indicates that persons having ordinary skill in             
          the art reasonably would not have expected to treat organ                   
          transplant recipients for heretofore untreatable rejection                  
          reactions.                                                                  
               For the reasons set forth in the body of this opinion, the             
          rejection of claims 11 through 23 under 35 USC § 103 is reversed.
