USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 6 granted patents across 7 technology areas, active 2015–2024. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES).
The verdict
Texas holds 6 US patents across 7 technology areas, rank #43,507 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Texas Biomedical Research Institute has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Texas Biomedical Research Institute at rank #43,507 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 7 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a US Corporation, Texas Biomedical Research Institute is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Texas sits between Teufelberger Fiber ROPE Gmbh (6 patents, rank #43,503) and Thales Sa (6 patents, rank #43,511) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 30.3/100 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 2 grants, compared with 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a -50% 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. Texas Biomedical Research Institute's 12.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 7 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Texas Biomedical Research Institute against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Texas's 6 grants land it in the top 66% 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.
