The verdict
Los holds 46 US patents across 21 technology areas — rank #7,159 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Los Angeles BioMedical Research Institute at Harbor UCLA Medical Center has been granted 46 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Los Angeles BioMedical Research Institute at Harbor UCLA Medical Center at rank #7,159 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a US Corporation, Los Angeles BioMedical Research Institute at Harbor UCLA Medical Center is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 43.5/100 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 16 grants, compared with 30 in the 2015–2019 window — a -47% 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. Los Angeles BioMedical Research Institute at Harbor UCLA Medical Center's 16.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Los Angeles BioMedical Research Institute at Harbor UCLA Medical Center against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Los's 46 grants land it in the top 28% by Innovation Score — but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
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.
