Novel Human Immunogenic Epitopes of the Human Endogenous Retrovirus ERVMER34-1

Summary:

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for the clinical translation of novel peptide-based therapeutic cancer vaccines derived from ERVMER34-1, a human endogenous retrovirus (HERV) antigen, offering a unique opportunity to address a significant unmet need in the treatment of various carcinomas.

Identification and Characterization of HLA-A24 Agonist Epitopes of MUC1 Oncoprotein

Summary:

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks co-development partners and licensees for a human cytotoxic T lymphocyte agonist epitope from the C-terminal subunit of mucin 1 (MUC1-C), which can be used as a peptide, polypeptide (protein), in a cancer vaccine or T-cell targeted therapy to target many tumor types.

Method of Manufacturing Papilloma Infiltrating Lymphocyte (PIL) Cell Therapy Products as a Treatment for Patients with Chronic Viral Infection(s)

Summary:

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for development of papilloma-infiltrating lymphocytes (PIL) as treatment for patients with chronic human papillomavirus (HPV) 6 or 11 infections.

T Cell Receptor Targeting HPV6 E2 and a Panel of Cos7 Cells Expressing Different HLA Class I Proteins for Use in Validation and Potency Studies

Summary:

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks licensees for this invention comprising (1) a novel T cell receptor (TCR) specific to the E2 protein of Human papillomavirus (HPV) type 6  in the context of the human leukocyte antigen, HLA-B55, and (2) a panel of Cos7 cells expressing different HLA proteins for validation of T cell responses in immunotherapies for low-risk HPV-related diseases such as recurrent respiratory papillomatosis and anogenital condyloma.
