                Appeal 2007-1033                                                                               
                Application 10/091,061                                                                         

                result in a patent covering a method of using the combination of these two                     
                known chemotherapeutics, with predictable results, i.e., “a greater anti-                      
                cancer effect than would administering either capecitabine or Compound 1                       
                alone.”  (See, e.g., claim 117.)  Issuing such a patent would take from the                    
                public’s hands that which it previously possessed.                                             
                      I would affirm the Examiner’s rejection of claims 117-130 under                          
                § 103(a).                                                                                      


























                                                      13
