Japan Patent Application No.: 2018–561669, filed November 22, 2018 (E–133–2016/0–JP–08) The patent rights in these inventions have been assigned and/or exclusively licensed to the government of the United States of America. The prospective exclusive/coexclusive license territory may be worldwide, and the fields of use may be limited to the following: An exclusive license to: ‘‘the development of a universal/split chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-based immunotherapy using autologous or allogeneic human lymphocytes (T cells or NK cells) transduced with lentiviral vectors, for the prophylaxis or treatment PO 00000 Frm 00063 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 13305 of cancers expressing FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3; also known as CD135), wherein the CAR construct binds to the FLT3-binding domain referenced as NC7 in the invention, but NC7 is not included in the CAR construct. Specifically excluded from the field of use for this exclusive license are FLT3specific CAR -based immunotherapies wherein the CAR construct comprises the FLT3-binding domain referenced as NC7 in the invention as well as an intracellular signaling domain.’’ The proposed territory is worldwide. A co-exclusive license to: ‘‘the development of a multi-specific FLT3 CAR-based immunotherapy using autologous or allogeneic human lymphocytes (T cells or NK cells) transduced with lentiviral vectors, wherein the viral transduction leads to the expression of a CAR that targets FLT3 (comprised of the FLT3-binding domain referenced as NC7 in the invention as well as an intracellular signaling domain), for the prophylaxis or treatment of FLT3-expressing cancers.’’ The proposed territory is worldwide. A co-exclusive license to: ‘‘the development of a FLT3-specific Regulated/Switch/Logic-Gated CARbased immunotherapy using autologous or allogeneic human lymphocytes (T cells or NK cells) transduced with lentiviral vectors, wherein the viral transduction leads to the expression of a CAR that targets FLT3 (comprised of the FLT3-binding domain referenced as NC7 in the invention as well as an intracellular signaling domain), for the prophylaxis or treatment of FLT3expressing cancers.’’ The proposed territory is worldwide. This technology discloses a CAR therapy that targets FLT3 by utilizing the anti-FLT3 binder known as NC7. FLT3 (CD135) is a cytokine receptor expressed on hematopoietic progenitor cells and is one of the most frequently mutated genes in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). FLT3 mutation leads to increased cell surface expression and therefore on leukemic cells, which makes it an attractive candidate for cellular therapies such as CAR–T. This Notice is made in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR part 404. The prospective exclusive/co-exclusive license will be royalty bearing, and the prospective exclusive/co-exclusive license 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 E:\FR\FM\04APN1.SGM 04APN1
