Argos Therapeutics, Inc. has been granted 15 US utility patents between 2015 and 2019, placing Argos Therapeutics, Inc. at #18,395 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a US Corporation, Argos Therapeutics, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Argos sits between Ao Jie Plastic Toys Factory Ltd. (15 patents, rank #18,405) and Aspen Medical Partners, Llc (15 patents, rank #18,413) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 30.0/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 0 grants, compared with 15 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The US Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Argos Therapeutics, Inc.'s 15.5 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 10 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
