Recent changes at United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) are reshaping the dynamics of patent prosecution, creating both opportunities and challenges for patent Applicants. The USPTO has recently implemented the Streamlined Claim Set Pilot Program and discontinued the Accelerated Examination program, leaving Track One and the Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) as the remaining primary options in the US for expedited examination.
