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.

Summary: 

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is actively seeking potential licensees and/or co-development research collaboration partners interested in further developing this family of oxynitidine derivatives as tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) inhibitors and radiosensitizers for the treatment of cancer. 

Summary:

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is seeking research co-development partners and/or licensees for NCI’s compositions and methods to enhance the efficacy of dendritic cell (DC)-based cancer vaccines.  

Summary:

The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) is actively seeking potential licensees interested in further developing these inhibitory transmembrane adapter proteins as targets for T-cell immunotherapy for the treatment of cancer, infectious diseases, and autoimmune diseases.

Summary: 
The National Eye Institute seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for a STAT3 antibody that can suppress uveitis.

Summary:

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for a set of Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs) that target the γδ T-Cell Receptor.

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.

Medical clamps currently available are not efficient nor are they sufficiently precise in closure and alignment of the edges of an incision or wound. Many available designs are difficult to use and handle, especially in situations where repeated opening and closure of an incision or wound is required. The functional short-comings of existing clamp designs may result in surgical complications, such as excess loss of fluids and pressure and hemostasis during some procedures.

Summary:

Lung metastases represent a major clinical challenge in advanced cancer, with poor survival rates and no effective therapies to prevent their development. Researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have developed C24:2, a first-in-class synthetic 3-O-sulfo-galactosylceramide analog. After lysosomal processing by dendritic cells, C24:2 switches immune specificity to activate type I NKT cells, triggering a potent IFN-γ–mediated Th1 response.

Glaucoma is one of the world’s leading causes of irreversible blindness. There is no cure and vision lost from glaucoma cannot be restored. Glaucoma is associated with fluid build-up in the eye resulting in an increased intraocular pressure (IOP). The pressure may cause damage to the optic nerve and lead to progressive degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGC) and vision loss. Currently, available treatments for glaucoma delay progression by reducing IOP, but no therapies exist to directly protect RGC from degradation and loss.
