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:

“Thermally controlled autologous T cell therapy products for the treatment of HPV-positive cancer in humans.”

The E-176-2014 patent family is primarily directed to an isolated TCR reactive to HPV 16 E7 antigen in the context of HLA-A*02:01 (the “E7 TCR”). HPV describes a group of human viruses known to cause malignancy. Of the group, HPV-16 is the most prevalent strain. Approximately 90% of adults are estimated to have been exposed at some point in their lifetime. HPV drives transformation of infected cells through the expression of certain oncoproteins, chiefly E5, E6 and E7. The latter two are constitutively expressed in malignant cells and are necessary to maintain a transformed state, rendering them attractive therapeutic targets.

The E7 TCR may be useful in the development of certain diagnostics and/or therapeutics for the treatment of cancers which express both the HPV 16 E7 oncoprotein and HLA-A*02:01. Potential therapeutic applications of the E7 TCR may include, but are not limited to, engineered autologous or allogeneic immune cell therapies ( e.g., T cell or natural killer cell-based) and TCR fusion proteins and conjugates ( e.g., soluble TCR bi-specifics or TCR-drug conjugates). The exclusive field of use which may be granted to Port applies to “thermally controlled” autologous T cell products, which is a subset of engineered immune cell therapies.

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 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 from these license applications will be made only as required and upon a request under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 552.
