Live Attenuated Vaccine To Prevent Disease Caused by West Nile Virus

    Description of Technology: West Nile virus (WNV) has recently 
emerged in the U.S. and is considered a significant emerging disease 
that has embedded itself over a considerable region of the U.S. WNV 
infections have been recorded in humans as well as in different 
animals. From 1999-2014, WNV killed 1,765 people in the U.S. and caused 
severe disease in more than 41,762 others. This project is part of 
NIAID's comprehensive emerging infectious disease program.
    The methods and compositions of this invention provide a means for 
prevention of WNV infection by immunization with attenuated, 
immunogenic viral vaccines against WNV. The invention involves a 
chimeric virus form comprising parts of WNV and Dengue virus. 
Construction of the hybrids and their properties are described in 
detail in multiple publications. The WNV chimeric vaccine does not 
target the central nervous system, which would be the case in an 
infection with wild type WNV. Importantly, two successful Phase I 
clinical trials were recently carried out with the vaccine. The live 
attenuated WNV vaccine is safe, well-tolerated, and immunogenic in 
healthy adult volunteers. Furthermore, the vaccine virus may also be 
considered for use as a safe reagent handled at bio-safety level 2 
facilities for WNV diagnosis and surveillance.

Potential Commercial Applications

 Human West Nile vaccine
 Veterinary West Nile vaccine
 West Nile Virus diagnostics
 West Nile Virus therapeutics

Competitive Advantages

 Low cost of manufacture
 Proven chimeric vaccine technology
 Phase I clinical data available

Development Stage

 In vivo data available (animal)
 In vivo data available (human)

Three-Dimensional Curved Catheter for Right Atrial Appendage Traversal

    Description of Technology: Available for licensing and commercial 
development is a three-dimensionally configured curved catheter for 
safe traversal of the right atrial appendage (RAA). The device is 
configured to optimize one-way access of the pericardial space through 
the right atrium and into the RAA reducing the risk of coronary 
lacerations. Specifically the curved catheter is best described in 
three segments: a proximal segment, a transitional segment and a distal 
segment; the transition segment having a clockwise spiral shaped 
curvature. When inserted into a patient, the proximal segment is 
positioned within the inferior vena cava, the transition segment 
extends across the caval-atrial junction and curves rightward, forward, 
and upward such that the catheter abuts a right lateral wall of the 
right atrium, and the distal segment curves leftward, forward, and 
upward from the transition segment through the right atrium such that 
the catheter abuts an anterior wall of the right atrium adjacent to the 
RAA. The catheter is configured to guide a coaxial puncturing device to 
through the superior left sulcal wall of the RAA.

Potential Commercial Applications

 Left atrial appendage ligation
 Circumferential tricuspid annuloplasty
 Epicardial ablation
Competitive Advantages: Reduced risk of coronary or myocardial 
laceration

Pseudomonas Exotoxin A With Modified Furin Cleavage Site

    Description of Technology: Immunotoxins kill cancer cells while 
allowing healthy, essential cells to survive. As a result, patients 
receiving immunotoxins are less likely to experience the deleterious 
side-effects associated with non-specific therapies such as 
chemotherapy. In order to make an effective immunotoxin, three 
components are generally required: A targeting domain, a furin cleavage 
site (FCS), and a toxic payload molecule (such as Pseudomonas exotoxin 
A (PE)). The purpose of the FCS is to allow the toxin domain to be 
processed by the target cell so that it can exert its toxic effect. 
This technology concerns the engineering of FCS in order to improve the 
efficacy of specific immunotoxins having distinct targeting domains. 
Several novel FCS have been generated which can be substituted for the 
native FCS in PE. By using specific FCS with different targeting 
moieties, it is possible to engineer an immunotoxin that is better 
suited to treating specific types of cancer.

Potential Commercial Applications

 Essential for the payload component of immunotoxins
 Treatment of any disease associated with increased or 
preferential expression of a specific cell surface receptor
 Specific diseases include hematological cancers, lung cancer 
(including mesothelioma), ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and head and 
neck cancers

Competitive Advantages

 Designing specific furin cleavage sites for particular 
immunotoxins can improve cleavage and enhance toxin efficacy, resulting 
in improved therapeutic effectiveness
 Targeted therapy decreases non-specific killing of healthy, 
essential cells, resulting in fewer non-specific side-effects and 
healthier patients

    Development Stage: In vitro data available.
