Portfolio overview

ESSA Pharma Inc. has been granted 7 US utility patents between 2021 and 2024, placing ESSA Pharma Inc. at rank #35,162 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 5 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 25.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61P (SPECIFIC THERAPEUTIC ACTIVITY OF CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS OR MEDICINAL PREPARATIONS). As a Foreign Corporation, ESSA Pharma Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, ESSA sits between Equalia Llc (7 patents, rank #35,158) and Etherwhere Corporation (7 patents, rank #35,166) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 50.1/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Historical data spans 2021 through 2024, with 7 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. ESSA Pharma Inc.'s 25.6 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 5 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark ESSA Pharma Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in A61P - see who else leads that technology area. A61P leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
