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 key informant interview protocol
will collect information on the service
model, partnerships and interagency
collaboration, program implementation
fidelity, plan deviations, and state and
local policy development at the state
level. Interviews will also include
questions to learn about opportunities
that were provided for workforce
training. Responses will be compared
over time to assess positive
development of the program model,
emerging barriers and facilitators to
implementation, and evolving solutions.
On average, 14 state administrators will
be interviewed annually and the
duration of the interview is estimated to
be one hour.

District Key Informant Interview
(Planning, Collaboration and
Partnership Study)
The purpose of these interviews is to
identify, through the perspectives of
LEA administrators and program
partners their descriptions of SS/HS
program activities. In particular, the
degree to which critical SS/HS
framework elements are
operationalized, as well as the degree to
which principles and strategies are
acknowledged and integrated as part of
the service processes. Topics include
the provider’s approach to service
provision (sensitivity to health
disparities, cultural competence), the
coordination of services across the LEA
and other local agencies, training of
mental health workers, local policy and
protocol development, and barriers/
facilitators at the local level that
influence the adoption, integration, and
sustainability of SS/HS principles.
Responses will be compared over time
to assess positive development of the
program model. It is anticipated that an
average of 63 district administrators and
program partners will participate in the
interview each year and the interviews
will be about one hour in duration.
State Collaborator Survey (Planning,
Collaboration and Partnership Study)
The state administrator’s survey will
seek to understand the level of interprofessional collaboration among
entities working at the state level to
promote expanded school mental
health. The survey will also capture
perceptions of partnership functioning
in terms of partner goals, resources,
culture and values, and roles and
responsibilities, as well as leadership

and collaboration among partners as
they impact (1) school and community
partner engagement, (2) facilitators, (3)
barriers, (4) shared decision-making, (5)
partnership structure, and (6)
sustainability. An average of 208 state
administrators and program partners
will complete the survey annually and
it is estimated that completion will take
30 minutes.
District Collaborator Survey (Planning,
Collaboration and Partnership Study)
The state administrator’s survey will
seek to understand the level of interprofessional collaboration among
entities working at the district level to
promote expanded school mental
health. The survey will also capture
perceptions of partnership functioning
in terms of partner goals, resources,
culture and values, and roles and
responsibilities, as well as leadership
and collaboration among partners as
they impact (1) school and community
partner engagement, (2) facilitators, (3)
barriers, (4) shared decision-making, (5)
partnership structure, and (6)
sustainability. An average of 624 LEA
district administrators and program
partners will complete the survey
annually and the time for completion is
estimated to be 45 minutes.
State Collaboration Indicator Data
Instrument (Planning, Collaboration
and Partnership Study)
The State Collaboration Indicator Data
Instrument will gather data about the
program activities that occur at the state
level. By tracking these activities, it will
be possible to determine the frequency
with which administrators engage in
SS/HS program related activities such as
holding meetings, the number of
persons who attend such meetings,
whether and the frequency with which
trainings and other support activities
occur as well as the participants in such
trainings. The instrument will also track
whether and what type of resources are
leveraged by program partners at the
state level. One instrument will be
completed by each state and it is
estimated that it will take on average 1.5
hours to gather the data and complete
the instrument.
District Collaboration Indicator Data
Instrument (Planning, Collaboration
and Partnership Study)
The District Collaboration Indicator
Data Instrument will gather data about
the program activities that occur at the
LEA/district level. By tracking these
activities, it will be possible to
determine the frequency with which
LEA administrators and program
partners at the district level hold

meetings, the number of persons who
attend such meetings, whether and the
frequency with which trainings and
other support activities occur, and the
participants in such trainings. The
instrument will also track whether and
what type of resources are leveraged by
program partners at the district level.
One instrument will be completed by
each of the 21 LEAs and it is estimated
that it will take on average 1.5 hours to
gather the data and complete the
instrument.
State and District Key Informant
Interview (Implementation Study)
The State and District Key Informant
Interviews will be held with
administrators and program partners at
the state and LEA districts. The
interviews will seek to gain an
understanding of respondents’
perspectives as these relate to the degree
to which critical SS/HS framework
elements are operationalized, as well as
the degree to which mental health
principles and strategies are
acknowledged and integrated as part of
the service processes. The interviews
will also seek to gain an understanding
of the types of services and supports
that have been implemented as a result
of the SS/HS program, children’s access
to mental health services, and the
facilitators and barriers to program
implementation. Interviews will also
include questions to learn about the role
workforce development opportunities
played in program implementation. A
total of 56 persons will be interviewed:
14 at the state/tribal level and 42 at the
district level. Interviews will take on
average one hour to complete.
School-Level Survey (Implementation
Study): The school-level survey will be
completed by persons who work within
the schools that are participating in the
SS/HS state program. The survey
combines items from three surveys: The
Evidence-Based Practice Attitude Scale
(EBPAS) assesses mental health and
social service provider attitudes toward
adopting evidence-based practices. The
Mental Health Service Integration
Survey (MHSIS) assesses professional
school mental health roles, service
integration, and barriers and facilitators
of mental health service integration in
schools. The School Mental Health
Quality Assessment Questionnaire
(SMHQAQ) is a 40 item instrument
divided into 10 domains that assess the
integration of school mental health
services delivered in schools. The 10
domains related to the 10 principles of
expanded school mental health include:
(1) Access to care; (2) Needs assessment;
(3) Evidence-based practices; (4)
Stakeholder involvement and feedback;
E:\FR\FM\18JYN1.SGM

(5) Quality assessment and
improvement; (6) Continuum of care
and referral processes; (7) Clinician
training, support, and service delivery;
(8) Competently addressing
developmental, cultural, and personal
differences; (9) Interdisciplinary
collaboration and communication; and
(10) Community coordination. The
School Mental Health Capacity
Instrument is a 27-item scale that
assesses the capacity of schools to
address the mental health needs of
students. The schools can be rated along
experiencing mental health concerns.
Finally, prevention and promotion looks
at the efforts focused on student’s
social-emotional development. A total
of 2,100 persons will be invited to
complete the survey annually and it is
estimated that completion of the survey
will take on average 25 minutes.
Internet-based technology will be
used for collecting data via Web-based
surveys, and for data entry and
management. The average annual
respondent burden is estimated below.

all three scales provides an overall
measure of capacity. The intervention
subscale looks at training, protocols,
and the designation of specific followup procedures for children referred for
mental health services. Early
recognition and referral covers universal
screenings for potential problems, and
communication between staff members
to discuss students who may be
