The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and licensees for a panel of five fully human antibodies against CD276 for the treatment of solid tumors. The collection also includes human CARs incorporating the antibodies for immunotherapeutic use.
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) seeks partners and/or licensees to further develop and commercialize the miniaturized tissue oximeter for implementing the single source-detector separation algorithm in existing devices/systems to collect tissue oxygen saturation.
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.
Summary:
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks collaborators and/or licensees for co-development and commercialization of an inhibitor of coronavirus main protease.
Summary:
Investigators at the National Institute on Drug Abuse seek co-development partners and/or licensees for collection of mu opioid receptor (MOR) agonists as alternatives for existing compounds.
Description of Technology:
Although existing opioids are excellent analgesics and useful as positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracers, they come with debilitating side effects. These include addiction, respiratory distress, hyperalgesia, and constipation. Therefore, there is a need for alternatives with lower adverse effects.
This technology includes a blood flow imaging method that allows for a higher density of smaller particles to be detected. Current imaging methods that are based on Doppler measurements are limited by the discontinuity in the capillary flow in the space between red blood cells. The core technology is to use a scattering agent to enhance capillary flow or microcirculation. This technology has been tested for optical coherence Doppler tomography, but can be expended to any Doppler based flow imaging techniques such as laser speckle imaging.
Summary:
The National Eye Institute (NEI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees to advance the production and uses of interleukin-27 (IL-27) producing B-regulatory cell (i27-Breg) therapy for immune related autoimmune disorders. These disorders include but are not limited, to age-related macular degeneration (AMD), graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), multiple sclerosis (MS) and transplant rejection.
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for a class of novel aplithianine-derived small molecule analogs that compete with ATP for binding on a range of clinically relevant kinases including:
This technology includes the development of selective P2Y14R antagonists for the treatment of asthma, sterile inflammation of the kidney, diabetes, and neurodegeneration. The P2Y14 receptor (P2Y14R) is a target for the treatment of inflammatory diseases, including pulmonary and renal conditions. Selective P2Y14R antagonists have demonstrated efficacy in animal models of asthma, pain, diabetes, and acute kidney injury. However, the prototypical antagonist is not optimal for in vivo administration, as it displays a low oral bioavailability.
