Technology area: Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals
4 pending office actions • 3 art units • 3 examiners • 0 of 4 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 6 patents granted in the last 365 days
Momenta Pharmaceuticals Inc. currently has 5 pending office actions within the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. These actions are distributed across 3 distinct art units, indicating a focused but slightly varied technical scope. The portfolio involves 4 distinct examiners, which suggests that the 5 pending actions are not concentrated under a single individual's review. This distribution across 4 distinct examiners provides a range of perspectives within the 3 distinct art units.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is DAHLE, CHUN WU, who is responsible for 2 pending office actions. This examiner handles a portion of the 5 total actions compared to the other distinct examiners involved. Practitioners should note that while the 3 distinct art units suggest technical consistency, the distribution of 5 actions among 4 examiners requires monitoring multiple individual prosecution styles simultaneously. The 2 actions under DAHLE, CHUN WU represent the concentration of activity for the current portfolio.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (25%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (25%) |
