Mayo Collaborative Servs. v. Prometheus Labs., Inc.
''Mayo v. Prometheus'', 566 U.S. ___ (2012), was a case decided by the Supreme Court of the United States that unanimously held that claims directed to a method of giving a drug to a patient, measuring metabolites of that drug, and with a known threshold for efficacy in mind, deciding whether to increase or decrease the dosage of the drug, were not patent eligible subject matter.〔Supreme Court Decision. Mayo Collaborative Services v. Prometheus Laboratories, Inc., No. 10-1150, Slip Op. at 16. (Decision )〕 The decision was controversial, with proponents claiming it frees clinical pathologists to practice their medical discipline, and critics claiming that it destabilizes patent law and will stunt investment in the field of personalized medicine, preventing new products and services from emerging in that field.〔C&E News on SCOTUS Prometheus ruling: ''(Patent Ruling Dismays Biotech )''〕
