‘‘High-affinity Monoclonal Antibodies
To Glypican-3 And Use Thereof’’ [HHS
Ref. E–136–2012/0–SG–06], and United
States Patent 9,409,994 entitled ‘‘Highaffinity Monoclonal Antibodies To
Glypican-3 And Use Thereof’’ [HHS Ref.
E–136–2012/0–US–07], and all
continuing U.S. and foreign patents/
patent applications for the technology
family, to AbPro. The patent rights in
these inventions have been assigned to
and/or exclusively licensed to the
Government of the United States of
America.
With respect to persons who have an
obligation to assign their right, title and
interest to the Government of the United
States of America, the patent rights in
these inventions have been assigned to
the Government of the United States of
America.
The prospective Exclusive Patent
License territory may be worldwide for
the following field of use:
The use of the YP7, YP8 and YP9.1 antiGPC3 monoclonal antibodies as monospecific
or bispecific antibodies for the treatment of
liver cancer. The licensed field of use
excludes any non-specified
immunoconjugates, including, but not
limited to, chimeric antigen receptors (CARs)
and variants thereof, Immunotoxins, and
antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs).
The present inventions to be licensed
concern monoclonal antibodies that are
specific for the cell surface domain of
GPC3: YP6, YP7, YP8, YP9 and YP9.1.
These antibodies can potentially be
used for the treatment of GPC3expressing cancers such as HCC. By
binding to and blocking GPC3 function,
these antibodies can inhibit the growth
of HCC cells, thereby decreasing the
ability of tumors to grow and
metastasize. Alternatively, the
antibodies can be used to induce
antibody-dependent anti-tumor activity
by selectively killing cells which
overexpress GPC3 while leaving
healthy, normal cells unscathed.
Finally, a secondary antibody capable of
recruiting T cells to the tumor can be
attached to the antibodies, thereby
allowing for the localization of T cells
or NK cells only to those cells which
express GPC3, similarly leading to the
selective killing of the cancer cells.
This notice is made in accordance
with 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR part 404.
The prospective Exclusive Patent
License will be royalty bearing and may
be granted unless within fifteen (15)
days from the date of this published
notice, the National Cancer Institute
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 part 404.
