Notice.
This is notice, in accordance
with 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR Part 404,
that the National Institutes of Health,
Department of Health and Human
Services, is contemplating the grant of a
co-exclusive (or exclusive, if the other
party declines to move forward with an
agreement) start-up option license to
practice the inventions embodied in
U.S. Patent Application 61/706,396

Methods For Eliciting Potent Antitumor
Activity’’ [HHS Ref. E–236–2012/0–US–

patent rights in these inventions have
been assigned to and/or exclusively
licensed to the Government of the
United States of America.
The prospective co-exclusive (or
exclusive) start-up option licensed
territory may be worldwide, and the
field of use may be limited to:
sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
The use of the monoclonal antibody SD1
(and glycoengineered variants thereof) as an
antibody therapy for the treatment of
mesothelioma, pancreatic cancer, breast
cancer, ovarian cancer and lung
adenocarcinoma. The Licensed Field of Use
explicitly excludes the use of the antibody in
the form of an immunoconjugate, including,
but not limited to, immunotoxins.
Upon the expiration or termination of
the co-exclusive start-up option license,
MesoPharm Therapeutics, Inc. will have
the co-exclusive right to execute a coexclusive (or exclusive, if the other
party declines their option)
commercialization license which will
supersede and replace the co-exclusive
start-up option license with no greater
field of use and territory than granted in
the co-exclusive start-up option license.
DATES: Only written comments and/or
applications for a license which are
received by the NIH Office of
Technology Transfer on or before
August 4, 2014 will be considered.
ADDRESSES: Requests for copies of the
patent application, inquiries, comments,
and other materials relating to the
contemplated co-exclusive start-up
option license should be directed to:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
invention concerns a monoclonal
antibody and methods of using the
antibody for the treatment of
mesothelin-expressing cancers,
including mesothelioma, lung cancer,
ovarian cancer and pancreatic cancer.
The specific antibody covered by this
technology is designated SD1, which is
a single domain, fully human
monoclonal antibody against
mesothelin.
Mesothelin is a cell surface antigen
that is preferentially expressed on
certain types of cancer cells. The SD1
antibody can selectively bind to these
cancer cells and induce cell death while
leaving healthy, essential cells
unharmed. This can result in an
effective therapeutic strategy with fewer
side effects due to less non-specific
killing of cells.

The prospective co-exclusive start-up
option license will be royalty bearing
and will comply with the terms and
conditions of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR

35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR Part 404
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

In compliance with Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 concerning
opportunity for public comment on
proposed collections of information, the
Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration (SAMHSA)
will publish periodic summaries of
proposed projects. To request more
information on the proposed projects or
to obtain a copy of the information
collection plans, call the SAMHSA
Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276–

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collections of information
are necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the proposed collection
of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the

Proposed Project: Multi-Site Evaluation
of the Safe Schools/Healthy Students
(SS/HS) State Program—NEW
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration’s
(SAMHSA) Center for Mental Health
Services (CMHS) will conduct the
multi-site evaluation of the Safe
Schools/Healthy Students (SS/HS) state
program. The data collected through the
multi-site evaluation addresses three
study components: (1) The planning,
collaboration, and partnership study; (2)
the implementation study; and (3) the
workforce study.
The SS/HS state program funded
grantees in seven states beginning in
September 2013. Data will be collected
from state/tribal administrators, Local
Education Authorities (LEAs)/Districts,
local program staff (e.g., school resource
officers, teachers and administrators,
and psychologists) and program
partners (e.g., parents, representatives
from the juvenile justice and mental
health providers).
Data collection activities will include
key informant interviews, and webbased surveys. The instruments to be
used for data collection are as follows:
Planning, Collaboration and Partnership
Study
• State Key Informant Interview
Protocol.
• District Key Informant Interview
Protocol.
• State Collaborator Survey.
• District Collaborator Survey.
• State Collaboration Indicator Data

Implementation Study
• State & District Key Informant
Interview Protocol.
• School-Level Survey.
Workforce Study
• No additional instruments will be
used for this study. Data will be
gathered from the Planning,
Collaboration and Partnership Study
and the Implementation Study.
A summary table of the number of
respondents and respondent burden has
also been included.
Data Collection Activities for MSE

Data for all instruments will be
collected annually with the exception of
