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 Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for a hydrogel-based delivery system for the local administration of tofacitinib to improve transplant outcomes.
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks co-development partners and/or licensees for a collection of T cell receptors (TCRs) that specifically target PIK3CA mutations to treat patients with tumors expressing these mutations in the context of HLA-DPA1*01:03:01, HLA-DPB1*04:01:01 or HLA-DRB1*04:01.
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for a delivery system to improve transplant outcomes through inhibition of the JAK/STAT pathway.
Value Proposition
Biofilms are complex microbial communities, surface attached and held together by self-produced polymer matrices. These matrices are mainly composed of polysaccharides, secreted proteins and nucleic acids. Poly-N-acetyl glucosamine (PNAG) is a highly conserved surface polysaccharide expressed by a range of bacterial, fungal and protozoan microorganisms.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been linked to many cancers including cervix, uterine, anus, vulva, vagina, and penis. Although HPV vaccines exist to prevent HPV-associated cancers, there are still more than 5,000 deaths caused by HPV-associated cancers each year in the US and cervical cancer continues to be the second leading cause of cancer death in women ages 20 to 39.
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in United States and it is estimated that there will be more than half a million deaths caused by cancer in 2009. A major drawback of the current chemotherapy-based therapeutics is the cytotoxic side-effects associated with them. Thus there is a dire need to develop new therapeutic strategies with fewer side-effects. Immunotherapy has taken a lead among the new therapeutic approaches. Enhancing the innate immune response of an individual has been a key approach for the treatment against
Over 34 million Americans are living with diabetes. An estimated 6.5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and type 2 diabetes mellites (T2DM). Amyloidosis due to aggregation of amyloid-β is key pathogenic event in AD, whereas aggregation of mature islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP37) in human islet leads to β-cell dysfunction. A hallmark feature of T2DM is the accumulation of islet amyloid polypeptide fibrils in pancreatic islets. Such accumulations form amyloid plaques and cause apoptosis of -cells of islets.
The National Eye Institute (NEI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for the development of an eyedrop formulation to deliver a series of peptides as a gene-agnostic approach to treating inherited retinal diseases.
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for a high-powered electronic device and coil that delivers Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) pulses as well as the software that controls the device for treating treatment resistant depression, substance use disorders and other CNS disorders.
