Prior art
Earlier patents, publications, and products that may anticipate or render the claims unpatentable.
To identify the most relevant prior art for US patent 11041020, I will search the USPTO database for the specific patent number and examine its cited references. I will then analyze each reference for its publication/filing date, brief description, and potential anticipation under 35 U.S.C. § 102.
Search for US Patent 11041020:
Based on the provided patent text, US Patent 11041020 is titled "Methods for the treatment of active Psoriatic Arthritis" and was issued on June 22, 2021, from an application filed on July 20, 2019.
The patent itself lists prior art under "References Cited." I will extract these references and analyze them.
Prior Art Analysis for US Patent 11041020:
The patent text provides a "Prior art date" of 2017-01-30. The legal status is "Active".
To perform a thorough prior art analysis under 35 U.S.C. § 102, each claim would need to be compared in detail against the disclosures of the prior art references. Without access to a comprehensive list of all cited prior art within US11041020 from the provided text, I will identify the references mentioned in the "Prior art keywords" and "Other versions" sections.
From the "Prior art keywords" and "Other versions" sections in the provided text, the following are mentioned:
- US20190338022A1: This is listed as "Other versions" of the patent. This is likely an earlier publication of the same patent application, rather than prior art. Its publication date is 2019-11-07. This would not typically be considered prior art to US11041020 under 35 U.S.C. § 102 as it shares the same priority date and is an earlier publication of the same content.
To identify actual prior art, I would need to access the full list of "References Cited" from the patent document itself, which is not fully provided in the prompt. The provided text, however, defines "prior art" in general terms: "Information known publicly before the effective filing date of a U.S. patent application is called prior art." This includes U.S. patents and published patent applications, foreign patents and applications, journal articles, books, manuals, catalogs, websites, conference proceedings, and scientific papers.
Without the complete list of cited prior art from the patent document, I cannot definitively provide "full citation, publication/filing date, brief description, and which claim(s) it potentially anticipates under 35 U.S.C. § 102" for each reference. However, the patent itself makes general references to existing knowledge and techniques as "known in the art," which would broadly fall under prior art.

These general references represent established scientific and patent knowledge that would contribute to the overall landscape of prior art but do not represent specific anticipatory citations for the particular anti-TNF antibody and treatment regimen claimed in US11041020. Without the actual "References Cited" section from the patent, I cannot provide the specific detailed analysis requested for direct anticipation under 35 U.S.C. § 102.
