Portfolio overview
Janssen Vaccines & Prevention B.V. has been granted 114 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Janssen Vaccines & Prevention B.V. at rank #3,282 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a Foreign Corporation, Janssen Vaccines & Prevention B.V. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 44.1/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 73 grants, compared with 41 in the 2015–2019 window — a +78% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Janssen Vaccines & Prevention B.V.'s 19.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 12 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Janssen Vaccines & Prevention B.V. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
