This profile records 6 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals and 213 career applications. The open docket identifies current activity, while the application figure supplies the broader recorded prosecution base.
The resolved allowance rate is 65.47%, and the average is 3.47 office actions per allowance. The historical figures show an allowance result below two-thirds and more than three office actions for allowed matters.
For practitioners, the profile separates current workload from historical outcomes. The figures may inform review of prosecution expectations, but they do not explain individual examination results or predict the disposition of a particular biotechnology or pharmaceutical application.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 2 (33%) |
| §103 only | 2 (33%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (17%) |
