Does more volume mean deeper claims for Nanjing?
Each dot is one of Nanjing’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Nanjing’s own 21.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Nanjing's grants concentrate
Nanjing Legend Biotech Co., Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under C07K (Peptides). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Nanjing sits between Nuclera Ltd and Neurolens, Inc..
Nanjing's three-year grant acceleration
Nanjing Legend Biotech Co., Ltd shows 13 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
