I. Background
FDA is announcing the availability of
a draft guidance for industry entitled
‘‘Establishing Effectiveness and Safety
for Hormonal Drug Products Intended to
Prevent Pregnancy.’’ This draft guidance
summarizes FDA’s recommendations for
key design features for clinical trials
intended to establish effectiveness and
safety for hormonal drug products
intended to prevent pregnancy. This
draft guidance does not address
development of contraceptive devices
for this indication.
This draft guidance is being issued
consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115).
The draft guidance, when finalized, will
represent the current thinking of FDA
on ‘‘Establishing Effectiveness and
Safety for Hormonal Drug Products
Intended to Prevent Pregnancy.’’ It does
not establish any rights for any person
and is not binding on FDA or the public.
You can use an alternative approach if
it satisfies the requirements of the
applicable statutes and regulations. This
guidance is not subject to Executive
Order 12866.
II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
Intellectual Property
United States Provisional Patent
Application No. 62/732,263, filed 17
September 2018 and entitled
‘‘Bicistronic Chimeric Antigen
Receptors Targeting CD19 and CD20 and
Their Uses’’ [HHS Reference No. E–205–
2018–0–US–01]; and U.S. and foreign
patent applications claiming priority to
the aforementioned application.
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 license
territory may be worldwide and the
field of use may be limited to the
following:
‘‘The development, production and
commercialization of an anti-CD19 antiCD20 dual targeting chimeric antigen
receptor (CAR)-based immunotherapy
using allogeneic (where the donor and
the recipient are different) immune
cells, wherein the genome editing is
meditated only by zinc-finger nucleases,
and where the CAR has at least:
(1) A dual antigen specificity;
(2) the complementary determining
region (CDR) sequences of the anti-CD19
antibody known as Hu19;
(3) the complementary determining
region (CDR) sequences of the anti-CD20
antibody known as 2.1.2; and
(4) a T cell signaling domain;
for the treatment of B-cell derived
human cancers.’’
This technology discloses the
development of chimeric antigen
receptors that recognize both the CD19
and CD20 cell surface proteins. CD19
and CD20 are expressed on the cell
surface of several hematological
malignancies, including Non-Hodgkins
Lymphoma (NHL), acute lymphoblastic
leukemia (ALL) and chronic
lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Although
the FDA has recently approved CARbased therapies which target only CD19
(Yescarta, Kymriah), tumors are capable
of undergoing tumor antigen escape (the
downregulation of target antigen
expression on tumor cells), which
PO 00000
Frm 00053
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
results in gradual resistance to ‘‘single
target therapies.’’ As a result, patients
receiving single target CAR therapies are
susceptible to relapse. This has
prompted investigators to pursue dual
targeting CAR therapies to provide as a
means of overcoming tumor antigen
escape, thereby providing a more
comprehensive therapeutic alternative.
The development of a new therapeutic
targeting both CD19 and CD20 will
benefit public health by offering up an
improved treatment for patients that
would otherwise be subject to relapse
due to tumor antigen escape.
This notice is made in accordance
with 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR part 404.
The prospective exclusive license will
be royalty bearing, and the prospective
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 with the requirements of
35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR part 404.
In response to this Notice, the public
may file comments or objections.
Comments and objections, other than
those in the form of a completed license
application, will not be treated
confidentially, and may be made
publicly available.
License applications submitted in
response to this Notice will be
presumed to contain business
confidential information and any release
of information in these license
applications will be made only as
required and upon a request under the
Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C.
552.
