cblr-1729	Kim, Eugene	Biotech Patent Eligibility: A New Hope	2018	43	.pdf	application/pdf	14158	728	61	The patent described a process of administering the drug and determining the level of drug metabolites in the patient, wherein the level of metabolites outside of a certain range indicated a need to alter the amount of the drug to enhance efficacy while reducing toxici- ty.238 Importantly, the Court framed the question presented as whether the “patent claims add enough to their statements of the correlations to allow the processes they describe to qualify as patent eligible processes that apply natural laws. If the answer is yes, the court must then search for an “inventive concept” that transforms the nature of the claim into a patent-eligible application.254 In Alice, the Court—in another short opinion—summarily found that the patent claims were directed to the abstract idea of interme- diated settlement.255 For the second step, it ruled that “method claims, which merely require generic computer implementation, fail to transform that abstract idea into a patent-eligible inven- tion.”256	cache/cblr-1729.pdf	txt/cblr-1729.txt
