    The patent rights in these inventions have been assigned to the 
United States of America.
    The prospective exclusive license territory may be ``worldwide'', 
and the field of use may be limited to ``use of C16Y and related 
peptides in the treatment of ocular disease.''

DATES: Only written comments and/or applications for a license which 
are received by the NIH Office of Technology Transfer on or before May 
18, 2012 will be considered.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for copies of the patent 
application(s), inquiries, AND comments relating to the contemplated 
exclusive license should be directed to: Susan S. Rucker, JD, CLP, 
Senior Advisor for Intellectual Property Transactions, Office of 
Technology Transfer, National Institutes of Health, 6011 Executive

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The technology encompassed by the patents 
and/or patent applications (IP) to be included in this exclusive 
license relates to a protein designated C16Y and variations thereof. 
C16Y is an engineered peptide derived from laminin gamma 1 chain having 
anti-angiogenic properties. The C16Y peptide is at least 5-fold more 
potent than the previously described C16S peptide and has been shown to 
inhibit choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in vivo and inhibit 
angiogenesis in a tumor bearing mouse model (see Ponce, et al Cancer 
Research 63: 5060-64 (2003)). The IP covers various C16Y compositions 
and uses thereof, particularly its use in treating ocular diseases.
    The prospective start up 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 start up exclusive license may be granted
