The U.S. Patent Trial & Appeal Board Rules in Favor of Extremity Medical on Key Patent Claim,
Despite Challenge by Fusion Orthopedics
Extremity Medical is pleased to report that our U.S. Patent No. 11,298,166 covering our innovative three component Intraosseous Fixation (IO FiX) bone fixation system survived a challenge by Fusion Orthopedics at the U.S. Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”). The parties’ dispute over the ‘166 Patent arose when Fusion started selling its IntraLock Bone Fixation System, which contends infringes the ‘166 Patent. Extremity Medical filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona against Fusion to stop this infringement. In response to Extremity Medical’s lawsuit, Fusion filed a petition for inter partes review (“IPR”) with the PTAB, challenging the validity of the ’166 Patent.
