of an exclusive patent license to practice
the inventions embodied in US Patent
Application 12/021,610 entitled,
‘‘Method for Treating Uterine Fibroids’’
[HHS Ref. E–057–2008/0–US–01], and
all continuing applications and foreign
counterparts. The patent rights in this
invention have been assigned to the
Government of the United States of
America and to Laboratoire HRA

Government of the United States of
America.
The prospective exclusive license
territory may be worldwide, and the
field of use may be limited to:
The use of ulipristal acetate for the
treatment of symptomatic uterine
fibroids.
DATES: Only written comments and/or
applications for a license which are
received by the NIH Office of
Technology Transfer on or before July
22, 2011 will be considered.
ADDRESSES: Requests for copies of the
patent application, inquiries, comments,
and other materials relating to the
contemplated exclusive license should
be directed to: Patrick P. McCue, PhD,
Licensing and Patenting Manager, Office
of Technology Transfer, National
Institutes of Health, 6011 Executive

5560; Facsimile: (301) 402–0220; E-mail:
mccuepat@mail.nih.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
invention concerns methods for the
treatment of symptomatic uterine
fibroids using a selective progesterone
receptor modulator compound,
ulipristal acetate (a.k.a. CDB–2914).
Ulipristal acetate reversibly binds the
progesterone receptor with high affinity
and little or no anti-glucocorticoid
activity. Proposed clinical indications
for ulipristal acetate include emergency/
daily contraception, treatment of uterine
fibroids, endometriosis, dysfunctional
uterine bleeding, and cancer.
The prospective exclusive license will
be royalty bearing and will comply with
the terms and conditions of 35 U.S.C.
209 and 37 CFR part 404.7. The
prospective exclusive license may be
granted unless the NIH receives written
evidence and argument that establishes
that the grant of the license would not
be consistent with the requirements of
35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR part 404.7
within thirty (30) days from the date of
this published notice.
Applications for a license in the field
of use filed in response to this notice
will be treated as objections to the grant
of the contemplated exclusive license.
Comments and objections submitted to
this notice will not be made available
for public inspection and, to the extent
permitted by law, will not be released
under the Freedom of Information Act,

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
This is notice, in accordance
with 35 U.S.C. 209(c)(1) and 37 CFR
404.7(a)(1)(i), that the National
Institutes of Health (NIH), Department
of Health and Human Services (HHS), is
contemplating the grant of a worldwide
exclusive license, to practice the
invention embodied in: HHS Ref. No.
E–074–2005/0 ‘‘Mucus Slurping
Endotracheal Tube’’; U.S. Patent
7,503,328 to Oculus Innovative
Sciences, Inc., a company incorporated
under the laws of the State of California
having its headquarters in Petaluma,
California. The United States of America
is the assignee of the rights of the above
inventions. The contemplated exclusive
license may be granted in a field of use
limited to devices for clearing mucus
from endotracheal tubes.
DATES: Only written comments and/or
applications for a license received by
the NIH Office of Technology Transfer
on or before July 22, 2011 will be
considered.
SUMMARY:
Requests for a copy of the
patent application, inquiries, comments
and other materials relating to the
contemplated license should be directed
to: Michael A. Shmilovich, Esq., Office
of Technology Transfer, National
Institutes of Health, 6011 Executive

confidentiality nondisclosure agreement
will be required to receive copies of any
patent applications that have not been
published or issued by the United States
Patent and Trademark Office or the
World Intellectual Property
Organization.
ADDRESSES:
The patent
intended for licensure covers a mucus
slurping device used to remove mucus
before it reaches the tip of the
endotracheal tube (ETT). A continuous
aspiration endotracheal tube for
subglottic secretions is fitted at its
distal-most tip with a molded, hollow,
concentric plastic ring with 3–4 (or
more) small (less than l mm in diameter)
suction ports, the latter positioned in
the most dependent part of the ETT. A

suction line is extended to the tip of the
ETT and suction was activated for
approximately half of a second,
synchronized to the early part of
expiration; and repeated once a minute,
or as desired. Studies involving
intubated sheep showed that all mucus
was cleared from test animal and that
mucus samples collected showed no
infections that typically put patients at
risk for ventilator associated
pneumonia.
The prospective exclusive license will
be royalty bearing and will comply with
the terms and conditions of 35 U.S.C.
209 and 37 CFR 404.7. The prospective
exclusive license may be granted unless,
within thirty (30) days from the date of
this published notice, NIH receives
written evidence and argument that
establishes that the grant of the license
would not be consistent with the
requirements of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37
CFR 404.7.
Properly filed competing applications
for a license filed in response to this
notice will be treated as objections to
the contemplated license. Comments
and objections submitted in response to
this notice will not be made available
for public inspection, and, to the extent
permitted by law, will not be released
under the Freedom of Information Act,
5 U.S.C. 552.
