Humanized Monoclonal Antibodies Specific Against Human Soluble Tissue Factor (hsTF) as Diagnosis, Prevention and Therapeutic Agents for Thrombosis

Summary:

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for a novel humanized monoclonal antibody (58B3) that selectively targets a newly identified soluble Tissue Factor (sTF) to diagnose, prevent and treat pathological thrombosis associated with inflammation, viral/bacterial infection, sepsis and cancer – without affecting normal hemostasis.

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.

NeoExpansion – A Method to Identify and Selectively Expand Neoantigen-specific T Cells, Including T Cell Receptor-engineered T Cells and Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes

Summary: 
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks co-development partners and/or licensees for a method of identifying and selectively expanding neoantigen-specific T cells.

Nanobodies Neutralizing Lassa Virus

Lassa Hemorrhagic Fever (LHF) is a serious disease caused by infection with Lassa virus (LASV) – highly prevalent in West Africa and spreading globally. LASV is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, annually infecting 100,000 to 300,000 individuals and causing 5,000 deaths. Developing prophylactics and treatment for LASV is difficult due to challenges in inducing neutralizing antibodies and producing their target, the LASV glycoprotein trimer (GPC).

Oxynitidine Derivatives Useful as Inhibitors of Topoisomerase IB (TOP1) and Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) for Treating Cancer

Summary: 

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is actively seeking potential licensees and/or co-development research collaboration partners interested in advancing oxynitidine derivatives as novel inhibitors of topoisomerase IB (TOP1) and tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) for cancer treatment. These TOPI and TDP1 inhibitors, when administered together, demonstrate enhanced anti-tumor efficacy.

Description of Technology: 

Method of Detecting Circulating Cell-Free HPV 6 and 11 DNA in Patients Afflicted With Diseases Caused by Chronic HPV 6 or 11 Infection and Use Thereof

Summary:

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) and Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research (FNLCR) seek research co-development partners and/or licensees for commercial development of a novel liquid biopsy diagnostic for non-invasive detection of cell-free HPV 6 and 11 DNA for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP).

Helical Guidewires and Related Systems for Transcatheter Heart Valve Procedures

This technology includes a guidewire purpose-built for delivery of bulky transcatheter heart valves (THV). Conventional THV guidewires are rigid and have a distal tip shaped like a pigtail to prevent apical ventricular perforation. This invention is a 3-dimensional helical or antihelical curve that can protect against apical perforation, possibly better, and that allows subtle 3-mensional deflection to aid the operator in achieving coaxiality or overcoming delivery obstacles such as calcific spicules.
