| Continuity chain | Every parent in the chain resolved | no change | High confidence |
| Patent term adjustment | +206 days, USPTO patent term adjustment record | Nov 4, 2026 | High confidence |
| Terminal disclaimer cap | Disclaimer resolved from the filed document (refs US 9,811,633) | resolves to Nov 4, 2026, no earlier than this term, so no change | High confidence |
| Patent term extension | None on file | no change | High confidence |
| Fee events | 1 of 1 maintenance fees paid | term ended | High confidence |
