Extensions

Based on the provided patent information and general knowledge of USPTO practices, here's a detailed breakdown for US patent 12013326:

Patent Term Adjustments (PTA) and Patent Term Extensions (PTE):

• Patent Term Adjustment (PTA): PTA compensates patent applicants for administrative delays caused by the USPTO during the prosecution of a utility or plant patent application. The total PTA is added to the standard 20-year term from the earliest non-provisional filing date. Delays that can trigger PTA include the USPTO failing to (A) issue an office action within 14 months, (B) respond to an applicant's reply within 4 months, (C) issue a patent within 4 months after payment of the issue fee, or if the application is pending for more than 3 years. The provided patent text does not explicitly state whether PTA has been applied to US12013326. To determine the exact PTA, if any, for US12013326, one would typically need to consult the patent's file history on the USPTO Patent Center.
• Patent Term Extension (PTE): PTE is awarded to compensate for delays incurred in obtaining regulatory approval on a patented product or methods of manufacturing or using the product, typically for pharmaceutical products. The patent text does not indicate any PTE for US12013326. Similar to PTA, details on PTE would be found in the patent's official file history.

Continuation Applications:

A continuation application is a new patent application filed by an applicant to pursue additional claims to an invention already disclosed in an earlier-filed, still-pending "parent" application. It allows for modifying or expanding claims, or adding new claims related to the same invention. Continuation applications claim priority from the parent application and retain its priority date.

The provided information indicates that US12013326B2 has an application number of US18/506,853 and a priority date of 2015-01-20. It also lists "US20240077402A1" as "Other versions." This suggests that US20240077402A1 is a published application related to US12013326B2. It is possible that US12013326B2 is a continuation of an earlier application, but the provided text does not explicitly state this, nor does it identify a "parent" application number for US18/506,853. A direct search for US12013326 on the USPTO Patent Center would reveal the complete family history.

Divisional Applications:

A divisional application is a type of continuation application that claims independent and distinct subject matter from a prior application, often arising when the USPTO requires the applicant to restrict claims to a single invention. A divisional application must claim benefit of the filing date of the prior application.

The provided patent text does not indicate the filing of any divisional applications for US12013326.

Related Family Members:

The Google Patents information lists "US20240077402A1" as "Other versions" and "US18/506,853" as the application number that led to the granted patent US12013326B2. This confirms that US20240077402A1 is a family member, likely an earlier publication of the same application or a related continuation.

Projected Expiration Date:

The patent text explicitly states the "Anticipated expiration" date as 2036-01-19. This date is based on the statutory patent term of 20 years from the earliest priority date, plus any applicable Patent Term Adjustment (PTA). Since the priority date is 2015-01-20, a 20-year term would typically end on 2035-01-20. The stated expiration of 2036-01-19 suggests that there has been approximately one year of Patent Term Adjustment granted.
