National Library of Medicine; Notice of Meeting, 61879-61880 [2014-24396]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 199 / Wednesday, October 15, 2014 / Notices tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES treatment of various human cancers expressing 5T4. Competitive Advantages: • The fully human antibodies may have better drugability, especially less immunogenicity and better safety. • This antibodies could be used as naked mAbs, CARs and/or as ADCs. • The confined expression of 5T4 makes it an attractive target for cancer immunotherapy. • 5T4 mAbs could be used to treat several solid tumor cancers. Development Stage: In vitro data available Inventors: Dimiter Dimitrov, Tianlei Ying, Yang Feng (all of NCI) Intellectual Property: HHS Reference No. E–158–2014/0—U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/034,995 filed 08 August 2014 Licensing Contact: Whitney Hastings; 301–451–7337; hastingw@mail.nih.gov Quantitative Multiplex Methods for Rapid Detection and Identification of Viral Nucleic Acids Description of Technology: The subject technologies are quantitative multiplex loop mediated isothermal amplification assays that can detect and distinguish different viral pathogens, including HIV, Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), Hepatitis E Virus (HEV), Dengue Virus (DENV), Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) and West Nile Virus (WNV). The assay has the advantage of distinguishing between different genotypes of HCV. It has the potential to detect other pathogens. A quantitative multiplex variation of the assay can detect and identify all seven viruses using one reaction mixture. The detection-reaction is performed on a simple heat-source and viral quantitation can be measured using a simple fluorospectrophotometer. The entire detection process using these assays can be accomplished within 30 to 60 minutes in a doctor’s office, laboratory setting, or in the field. Detection limits of as little as 1–10 International Units (viral copies) are possible with the use of fluorogenic oligonucleotides. The assays demonstrate very high specificity when tested with human clinical samples. Potential Commercial Applications: Detection assays for viral pathogens such as HIV, HBV, HCV, HEV, Dengue Virus, Chikungunya, and West Nile Virus. Competitive Advantages: • Assays can be completed within 30 to 60 minutes and in a doctor’s office, laboratory setting, or in the field. • Assays can be performed without expensive instrumentation or specialized technical operators. VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:00 Oct 14, 2014 Jkt 235001 • Assays are highly specific and can distinguish between different viruses and between different genotypes of viruses.
