The verdict
National holds 5 US patents across 5 technology areas, rank #48,961 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
National Cancer Center Japan has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2021 and 2023, placing National Cancer Center Japan at rank #48,961 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 5 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 9.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in C07K (PEPTIDES). As a Foreign Corporation, National Cancer Center Japan is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, National sits between Nanopix Integrated Software Solutions Private Limited (5 patents, rank #48,957) and National Institutes OF Health (nch), U.s. DEPT. OF Health AND Human Services (dhhs), U.s. Government NIH Division OF Extramural Inventions AND Technology Resources (deitr) (5 patents, rank #48,965) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 39.6/100 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 2023, with 5 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. National Cancer Center Japan's 9.2 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 5 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark National Cancer Center Japan against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
National's 5 grants land it in the top 38% 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.
