Dispute Summary
Merck And Cie filed a writ petition challenging the rejection by the Deputy Controller of Patents, Kolkata, of its application under Section 15 for 'hemisulfate salt of 5, 10-CH2-THF'. The petitioner argued that the rejection was based on a misinterpretation of the application's purpose—it was intended as an enhancer/catalyst for the cancer drug fluorouracil, not as an original drug.
