Notes"The patent didn’t cover the drugs themselves, nor any particular method for measuring metabolite levels—these were already widely used in the medical profession. Instead, the patent covered the concept that particular metabolite levels “indicate a need” to raise or lower drug dosage."This is completely insane, and the Supreme Court was right to strike it down.
Supreme Court saves medical profession from diagnostic patents
