ADMET Prediction Models: Patents Mapping Who Files and Where the Gaps Sit
  • Concentrated at the top. The top 5 assignees account for 57.9% of all 19 records in scope, and the top 10 reach 84.2% — a short list of repeat filers surrounded by a long tail of single-filing entrants.
  • Computational chemistry dominates the claim language. G16C appears in 78.9% of records, with G06N (AI models) at 47.4% and G16B (bioinformatics) at 31.6% — most filings pair a chemistry framing with a machine-learning method claim.
  • Filing is still ramping, not plateauing. Volume rose from zero in 2017 to a peak of 6 in 2025, with 5 already published in the partial 2026 year — publication lag means the true 2026 count will land higher.

Overview

What this landscape covers

ADMET prediction models sit at the intersection of computational chemistry and machine learning: patents in this set claim methods for predicting absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion or toxicity of candidate compounds, often anchored to applicability domain, uncertainty estimation or temporal validation split concepts that distinguish a defensible model claim from a generic QSAR method. The search scope pulls 19 published records between 2015 and the 2026 cut-off, filed by 28 ranked assignees spanning corporate, university and individual inventors.

The dataset is small enough that individual filings move the concentration figures meaningfully, so read the ranking as a signal of who is active rather than a mature competitive map. Receiving-office spread across the United States, China, India, WIPO, Europe and Taiwan suggests the field is being claimed in parallel jurisdictions rather than consolidated behind a single filing strategy.

The Data

Filing trend and technology composition

Two views of the same 19 records: filing activity by year, and how those records distribute across IPC subclasses. Because a single record can carry several IPC codes, the subclass shares below sum to more than 100% of the record total.

Filing trend, 2017–2026

Filings moved from zero in 2017 to a peak of 6 in 2025; 2026 already shows 5 published records but the year is only partial and publication lag of roughly 18 months means the final count will sit higher once late filings clear examination and publication.

IPC subclass composition

G16C (computational chemistry) covers 78.9% of the 19 records, far ahead of G06N (AI computing methods) at 47.4% and G16B (bioinformatics) at 31.6%. Smaller shares in C08L, G16H, C12Q and G01N show the technology reaching into polymer science, healthcare informatics and lab measurement, but each at only one or two records.

Shares are the percentage of the 19 records in scope. A patent can carry several IPC classes, so the shares add up to more than 100%.

NATIONAL TAIWAN UNIVERSITY

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for chemical toxicity prediction. The methods comprise receiving test data from an analysis instrument, selecting a candidate chemical according to the test data, determining a hazard translated level and a hazard evaluation level of the candidate chemical according to a molecular fingerprint, and predicting toxicity using a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) model based on the hazard translated level and the hazard evaluation level.Filed by National Taiwan University, published 2025-05-15.

Citation counts inside this corpus are low in absolute terms and skew toward earlier-published records — read them as a signal of relative influence within this 19-record set, not as a measure of current commercial importance.

Patent titles are shown in the language they were filed in, not translated, so that each record stays verifiable against the original filing — a translated title will not match in Eureka or in any national register. Publication numbers are shown where the record carries one (5 of 5 rows); clicking a row searches Eureka by that number.

Insights

What the numbers mean for a filing decision

Three read-outs from the concentration, composition and geography data, aimed at where a new filing would land relative to existing claims.

Concentration
57.9% / 84.2%
top 5 / top 10 share of 19 records

A short leader group, a long tail behind it

The top 5 assignees hold 57.9% of all 19 records in scope and the top 10 reach 84.2%, leaving the remaining 18 ranked assignees splitting a handful of filings between them. That pattern is typical of an emerging niche: a few organisations built early portfolios while most entrants have filed once.

Read the ranking as activity, not market share.
Claim overlap
78.9% G16C
share of records carrying computational chemistry class

Method claims cluster around chemistry-plus-ML framing

Nearly four in five records carry the G16C computational chemistry class, and almost half also carry G06N for AI computing methods. New filings that claim only a generic machine-learning pipeline without a chemistry-specific structure or descriptor risk sitting on the same crowded ground as the majority of existing claims.

Bioinformatics (G16B) is present in under a third of records — a comparatively lighter-claimed adjacency.
Jurisdiction spread
US 5 · CN 4 · IN 4
records by receiving office

No single office dominates filing strategy

Receiving offices split across the United States, China and India at similar volumes, with WIPO, EPO and Taiwan filings behind them. That spread suggests applicants are pursuing parallel regional protection rather than a single home-market strategy, which matters for freedom-to-operate checks that only clear one jurisdiction.

A single-country clearance search would miss most of this set.

Players

Who is filing, and where the gaps sit

The ranked assignee list spans corporate labs, universities and individual inventors, with recent-year activity concentrated in a small number of names.

Recent momentum
2 in latest year
SB Tech Inc, most recent year

One assignee is filing now while earlier leaders go quiet

SB Tech Inc shows 2 filings in the latest year, while several assignees that were active earlier — including DeepCure Inc and a Chinese university co-filer — show 0 filings in the latest year and a -100% year-on-year change. That handoff pattern is worth watching before assuming any single leader's position is stable.

Momentum in a 19-record set can shift on one or two filings.
Co-filing
3 pairs
co-assignee pairs identified

Co-assignments are rare but concentrated around university-agency links

Only 3 co-assignee pairs appear in the dataset, the strongest being a national environmental research body paired with a national university, filed twice together. That pairing points to a public-research collaboration model rather than corporate joint filing, which is otherwise absent from this set.

Co-filing here signals institutional partnership, not licensing activity.
Entity mix
28 ranked assignees
across the whole ranking

Individual inventors sit alongside corporate and university filers

The ranking includes named individual inventors alongside corporate entities such as Borealis and DeepCure and university filers such as National Taiwan University. That mix is unusual for a field this technical and suggests filing costs are low enough, or the claim scope narrow enough, that solo inventors are entering alongside institutional players.

Diligence on this field should not assume corporate-only competitors.

What's Next

Where to take this next

The concentration and composition figures point to specific next steps depending on whether the goal is freedom-to-operate, portfolio strategy or new filing.

Check freedom-to-operate across all three lead jurisdictions

With filings split across the United States, China and India at similar volumes, a clearance check limited to one office will miss active claims in this set.

Run a jurisdiction-specific search

Draft around the chemistry-plus-ML claim pattern

Since 78.9% of records carry the G16C computational chemistry class often paired with G06N, claims that combine a generic ML pipeline with a specific chemical descriptor structure sit on less-contested ground.

Track the SB Tech Inc filing pace against the quieter incumbents

Recent-year momentum has shifted toward SB Tech Inc while earlier active filers show no latest-year activity, a pattern worth monitoring before assuming portfolio stability.

Patent data carries inherent limitations: recent filings (typically the most recent 18–24 months) are under-counted due to standard publication lag; counts may be reported at either a patent-family or a patent-record basis and are not always directly comparable; classification, applicant-name, and citation data may contain errors, duplicates, or omissions; and the underlying search query defines and constrains the scope shown. As a result, the analysis may be incomplete or inaccurate and may not reflect the full technology landscape.
