Where Seagen's grants concentrate

Seagen Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 92.2% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (18 grants) versus a trough of 8 in 2024. By volume, Seagen sits between Shenzhen Zhengtu Auto Accessories Co., Ltd. and Switchlab Inc..

Seagen's three-year grant acceleration

Seagen Inc. shows 41 grants in 2022–2024 against only 18 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.
