Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 61 / Monday, March 31, 2014 / Notices
on February 3, 2011, PCT Application
Number PCT/US2012/23575, filed on
February 2, 2012, U.S. Patent
Application Number 13/983,545, filed
on August 2, 2013, European Patent
Application Number 12702953.6, filed
on February 2, 2012, and Canadian
Patent Application Number 2826594,
filed on February 2, 2012, to Exxell BIO,
Inc., having a place of business in
Shoreview, Minnesota, United States of
America. The patent rights in these
inventions have been assigned to the
United States of America and Thomas
Jefferson University.
Only written comments and/or
application for a license which are
received by the NIH Office of
Technology Transfer on or before April
30, 2014 will be considered.
DATES:
Requests for a copy of the
patent application, inquiries, comments
and other materials relating to the
contemplated license should be directed
to: Peter Soukas, Office of Technology
Transfer, National Institutes of Health,
6011 Executive Boulevard, Suite 325,
Rockville, MD 20852–3804; Email:
ps193c@nih.gov; Telephone: (301) 435–
4646; Facsimile: (301) 402–0220.
ADDRESSES:
No
vaccine candidates against Ebola virus
(EBOV) or Marburg virus (MARV) are
nearing licensure, and the need to
develop a safe and efficacious vaccine
against filoviruses continues. Whereas
several preclinical and clinical vaccine
candidates against EBOV or MARV exist
(please see below for further
elaboration), their further development
is a major challenge based on safety
concerns, pre-existing vector immunity,
issues such as manufacturing, dosage,
and marketability, and funding for
development. The inventors have
developed a new platform based on live
or chemically inactivated (killed) rabies
virus (RABV) virions containing EBOV
glycoprotein (GP) in their envelope. In
preclinical trials, immunization with
such recombinant RABV virions
provided excellent protection in mice
against lethal challenge with the mouse
adapted EBOV and RABV. More
specifically, the inventors have
developed a trivalent filovirus vaccine
based on killed rabies virus virions for
use in humans to confer protection from
all medically relevant filoviruses and
RABV. Two additional vectors
containing EBOV Sudan GP or MARV
GP are planned to be constructed in
addition to the previously developed
EBOV Zaire GP containing vaccine. Live
attenuated vaccines have been
developed for use in at risk nonhuman
primate populations in Africa and

inactivated vaccines have been
developed for use in humans.
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. 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.
The fields of use may be limited to (1)
inactivated vaccines against rabies virus
and filoviruses for use in humans and
(2) live attenuated vaccines against
rabies virus and filoviruses for use in
non-human animals.
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.
