Monoclonal Antibody to a Specific
Peptide–MHC Class II Complex
Description of Invention: T
lymphocytes play an important role in
the immune system by recognizing
foreign protein motifs on cells. T
lymphocytes are stimulated to recognize
these motifs through their interactions
with peptide-MHC complexes (pMHC).
Thus, studying pMHC is an important
aspect of understanding how the
immune system works, particularly with
regard to the development of vaccines.
Unfortunately, the detection of pMHC is
largely dependent on indirect assays,
due to the difficulty of producing
antibodies for specific pMHC.
This invention regards the
development of hybridomas (C4H3) for
the production of antibodies that are
highly specific for a particular pMHC
complex consisting of hen egg lysozyme
peptide 46-61 (HEL) and the I-Ak MHC
class II molecule. These antibodies can
be used for a myriad of purposes which
include studying how cells form pMHC.
Applications: Discovery of methods
for antigen delivery in the development
of vaccines.
Quantitation and distribution of
pMHC complexes on cells.
Study antigen processing in
experimental immunological research
systems.
Advantages: High specificity for the
pMHC complex of HEL-I-Ak MHC class
II molecule.
HEL-I-Ak is widely used in
experimental immunological research
systems, giving the hybridoma and
antibodies great applicability.

Bifunctional Compounds that Bind to
Hormone Receptors
Description of Technology: The
development and progression of
prostate cancer is dependent on the
androgen receptor (AR), a liganddependent transcription factor. In the
inactive form AR resides in the cytosolic
region of the cell and when activated,
AR is imported into the nucleus. Initial
hormonal therapy for prostate cancer
involves lowering serum levels of
testosterone to shut down AR activity.
Despite initial patient responses to
testosterone-depleting therapies,
prostate cancer becomes refractory to
hormonal therapy. Notably, AR is
reactivated in hormone-refractory
prostate cancer and reinstates its
proliferative and survival activity.
Available for licensing is a novel
chemical compound which is
bifunctional and binds to AR. This
compound is comprised of tubulinbinding and steroid receptor-binding
moieties. This compound is designed to
antagonize AR function in a
nonclassical manner by several
mechanisms and kills hormonerefractory prostate cells better than both
functional moieties. This compound is a
first-in-class of bifunctional steroid
receptor binding agents that can
antagonize steroid receptors in a variety
of hormone-dependent diseases, such as
breast and prostate cancer.
Applications: Therapeutic
compounds that selectively target
steroid receptor-expressing cancer cells
resulting in decreased toxicity.
Method to treat hormone resistant
prostate cancer and potentially other
steroid receptor dependent diseases
such as breast cancer.
Market: Prostate cancer is the second
most common type of cancer among
men, wherein one in six men will be
diagnosed with prostate cancer.
An estimated 218,890 new cases of
prostate cancer and 27,050 deaths due
to prostate cancer in the United States
in 2007.

A Clinically Proven Therapeutic
Treatment and Diagnostic Tool for
Mesothelin Expressing Cancers: A
Novel Recombinant Immunotoxin SS1P
(anti-mesothelin dsFv–PE38)
Description of Technology:
Mesothelin is a glycoprotein, whose
expression has been largely restricted to
mesothelial cells in normal tissues.
Mesothelin has been shown to be
expressed in several cancers including
mesothelioma, lung cancer, pancreatic
cancers, gastric cancers and ovarian
cancers, and has the potential of being
used as a novel target for the
development of new treatments.
The technology relates to the SSIP
immunotoxin that can be used to kill
cells expressing mesothelin on their
surfaces, such as mesothelioma, ovarian
cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer and
stomach cancer. Additionally, it can be
used for the detection of mesothelin
expressing cells present in a biological
sample.
The SSIP immunotoxin is a
recombinant immunotoxin generated by
the fusion of a high affinity antimesothelin Fv (SS1) with a 38 kDa
portion of Pseudomonas Exotoxin A
(PE38).
Applications: SS1P can be used as a
therapy for mesothelin expressing
cancers.
The immunotoxin can be used as a
stand alone treatment and in
combination with standard
chemotherapy.
Advantage: SS1P immunotoxin is
available for use and has been
successfully tested clinically for the

cancer with low side effects.
Development Status: Phase 1 studies
have been completed for mesothelin
expressing cancers such as
mesothelioma, ovarian cancer and
pancreatic cancer.

combination therapy using SS1P and
standard chemotherapy.
