testing. Further, the invention rat has a
longer life span so that studies of longer
duration or studies involving serial
sampling can be conducted. The
invention rat can be used to evaluate
potential treatments for AD and to
further investigate AD physiology.
Potential Commercial Applications:
• In vivo validation of AD
therapeutics.
• Development and validation of
imaging methods to diagnose AD.
• Detailed investigation of AD
pathology and physiology.
Competitive Advantages:
• Rat model in contrast to available
mice models.
• Rat model based on over-expression
of genes responsible for early onset AD.
Development Stage:
• Prototype.
• In vivo data available (animal).

Prognostic Biomarkers for Patients
With Early Stage Lung Cancer
Description of Technology:
Investigators at the National Cancer
Institute have discovered a set of
biomarkers that can identify patients
with early stage lung cancer who have
a high risk of relapse. Available for
licensing are prognostic assays based on
these biomarkers, which can enable
clinicians to select more effective
therapy and post-operative follow-up
strategies.
Surgery is the standard care for
patients with stage I lung cancer.
Despite successful surgery, 20–30% of
patients will relapse. Chemotherapy can
improve patient survival; however, it is
controversial if early stage cancer
patients should be treated with
chemotherapy since, for many cases, it
will harm quality of life with little
therapeutic benefit. Utilizing patient
samples, the investigators conducted a
retrospective study in eight patient
cohorts that validated the gene classifier
set. These prognostic methods can guide
physicians to select appropriate
treatment and follow-up while sparing
other patients of unnecessary treatment
and negative side-effects of
chemotherapy.

Potential Commercial Applications:
• Method to determine the prognosis
of patients with lung cancer.
• Method to select more effective
treatment and post-operative follow-up
for patients with early stage lung cancer.
Competitive Advantages: Assays were
validated in human tissue samples and
eight different patient cohorts.
Development Stage:
• Early-stage.
• In vivo data available (human).

Retroviral and Lentiviral Vectors To
Increase Efficiency of Inducible
Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC) Production
Description of Technology:
Researchers at the National Cancer
Institute have discovered that
modulating a specific p53 isoform
increases the number of inducible
pluripotent stem cells that can be
obtained from cells that are being reprogrammed to obtain pluripotent cells.
It is known that the activity of p53
regulates the self-renewal and
pluripotency of normal and cancer stem
cells, and also affects re-programming
efficiency of iPS cells. This p53 isoformbased technology provides a more
natural process of increasing iPS cell
production than previous methods of
decreasing p53.
