Portfolio overview
Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corporation has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2016 and 2017, placing Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corporation at rank #47,826 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 3 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 22.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61P (SPECIFIC THERAPEUTIC ACTIVITY OF CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS OR MEDICINAL PREPARATIONS). As a US Corporation, Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Inotek sits between Innoview Sarl (5 patents, rank #47,822) and Insight Holding Group, Inc. (5 patents, rank #47,830) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 25.5/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 0 grants, compared with 5 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US 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. Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corporation's 22.0 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while specialization in 3 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

- Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Inotek ranks #47,826 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
- 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.
