Prospective Grant of Exclusive
License: The Development of
Therapeutic Agents for the Treatment
of Metastatic Breast Cancer and T-cell
Lymphoma
National Institutes of Health,
Public Health Service, HHS.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
This is notice, in accordance
with 35 U.S.C. 209(c)(1) and 37 CFR
Part 404.7(a)(1)(i), that the National
Institutes of Health, Department of
Health and Human Services, is
contemplating the grant to Birich
Technologies, Inc., of an exclusive
evaluation option license to practice the
inventions embodied in the following
U.S. Patent Applications (and all
continuing applications and foreign
counterparts): Serial No. 61/045,088
entitled, ‘‘COMPOSITIONS AND
METHODS FOR DELIVERING
INHIBITORY OLIGONUCLEOTIDES’’
[HHS Ref. E–051–2008/0–US–01]; Serial
No. 61/333,512 entitled, ‘‘Peptide
Inhibitors of Interferon Gamma and
Interleukin 10 Signaling’’ [HHS Ref. E–
167–2010/0–US–01]; and Serial No. 60/
987,340 entitled, ‘‘Diagnostic and
Therapeutic Applications of a p53
Isoform in Regenerative Medicine,
Aging and Cancer’’ [HHS Ref. E–033–
2008/0–US–01]. The patent rights in
these inventions have been assigned or
exclusively licensed to the Government
of the United States of America.
The prospective exclusive evaluation
option license territory may be
worldwide, and the field of use may be
limited to:
SUMMARY:
erowe on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with
The use in humans of the peptide-based
antisense delivery technology (ChemoArp) in
conjunction with either (i) a peptide-based
interleukin-10 (IL–10) inhibitor as a dualbiologic therapy to treat metastatic breast
cancer, or ii) incorporating a p53 isoform
antisense oligonucleotide as a single biologic
therapy to treat T-cell lymphoma.
Upon the expiration or termination of
the exclusive evaluation option license,
Birich Technologies, Inc. will have the
exclusive right to execute an exclusive
commercialization license which will
supersede and replace the exclusive
evaluation option license with no
greater field of use and territory than
granted in the exclusive evaluation
option license.
DATES: Only written comments or
applications for a license (or both)
which are received by the NIH Office of
VerDate Mar<15>2010
15:21 Oct 12, 2012
Jkt 229001
Technology Transfer on or before
October 30, 2012 will be considered.
ADDRESSES: Requests for copies of the
patent application, inquiries, comments,
and other materials relating to the
contemplated exclusive evaluation
option license should be directed to:
Patrick McCue, Ph.D., Licensing and
Patenting Manager, Office of
Technology Transfer, National Institutes
of Health, 6011 Executive Boulevard,
Suite 325, Rockville, MD 20852–3804;
Telephone: (301) 435–5560; Facsimile:

mccuepat@mail.nih.gov.
These
inventions concern i) compositions and
methods for targeted delivery of
inhibitory nucleic acids to cells using a
cell surface receptor ligand targeting
domain and an inhibitory
oligonucleotide-binding domain to
efficiently deliver the antisense nucleic
acid to cells that expresses the cell
surface receptor that binds the ligand, ii)
compositions that potently and
selectively interfere with dimerization
of interleukin-10 and binding of this
protein to its receptor, and iii)
compositions that inhibit delta133p53, a
natural variant nucleic acid of tumor
suppressor protein 53 (p53) that inhibits
p53-dependent cell senescence.
The prospective exclusive evaluation
option license is being considered under
the small business initiative launched
on 1 October 2011, and will comply
with the terms and conditions of 35
U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR Part 404.7. The
prospective exclusive evaluation option
license, and a subsequent exclusive
commercialization 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 fifteen (15) days from the date of
this published notice.
Complete 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
evaluation option 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, 5 U.S.C.
552.
