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

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
