Regulatory B-cells (Breg) play an important role in reducing autoimmunity and reduced levels of these cells are implicated in etiology of several auto-inflammatory diseases. Despite their impact in many diseases, their physiological inducers are unknown.  The National Eye Institute seeks parties interested in licensing or collaborative research to co-develop a process for the production of regulatory B-Cells for use in auto-immune indications.

The National Cancer Institute, Nanobiology Program seeks parties to co-develop cancer therapeutics base on antibody fragments.

Researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have developed an invention consisting of hydrocarbon stapled peptides that disrupt the linear ubiquitin-chain assembly complex (LUBAC), which is involved in NF-κB signaling. These peptides can be used as a therapeutic in the treatment of the activated B cell-like (ABC) subtype of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), a type of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, as well as inflammatory diseases. The NCI seeks licensing and/or co-development research collaborations for inhibitors of NF-κB signaling and/or treatment of ABC DLBCL, as well as inflammatory diseases.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse’s Medicinal Chemistry Section seeks partners interested in collaborative research to co-develop analogues of modafinil for the treatment of drug abuse and sleep and attention disorders.

NCI seeks partners to commercialize Griffithsin and Griffithsin tandemers as therapeutics for HIV infections that are resistant to native GRFT, specifically, additional studies on stability, toxicity, immunogenicity, and large-scale production.

The National Cancer Institute’s Chemical Biology Laboratory seeks partners interested in collaborative research to co-develop nitric oxide (NO) based prodrugs for the treatment of lung cancer.

This technology represents a safe yet highly efficient strategy for somatic cell reprogramming, and has broad applicability for basic research and disease modeling.

RNA interference (RNAi) is a naturally occurring cellular post-transcriptional gene regulation process that utilizes small double-stranded RNAs to trigger and guide gene silencing. By introducing synthetic RNA duplexes called small-interfering RNAs (siRNAs), we can harness the RNAi machinery for therapeutic gene control and the treatment of various diseases. The National Cancer Institute seeks partners to license or co-develop RNA, RNA-DNA, and DNA-RNA hybrid nanoparticles consisting of a DNA or RNA core with attached RNA or DNA hybrid duplexes.

The National Cancer Institute Laboratory of Molecular Biology seeks parties to license or co-develop and commercialize antibody drug/toxin conjugates as liver cancer therapy and diagnostics.
