Indeed, our reviewing court has expressly rejected similar contentions regarding preemption, stating that a patentee’s “attempt to limit the breadth of the claims by showing alternative uses . . . outside of the scope of the claims does not change the conclusion that the claims are directed to patent ineligible subject matter.” Ariosa Diagnostics, Inc. v. Sequenom, Inc., 788 F.3d 1371, 1379 (Fed. Cir. 2015). The court explained that, “[w]hile preemption may signal patent ineligible subject matter, the absence of complete preemption does not demonstrate patent eligibility. . . . Where a patent’s claims are deemed only to disclose patent ineligible subject matter under the Mayo framework . . . preemption concerns are fully addressed and made moot.” Id.
