The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks licensees and/or collaborators for a T-cell receptor (TCR) that specifically targets CD22 in the context of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-A*02:01 in B-lymphoid malignancies such as non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The TCR is being developed as a cellular immunotherapy for the treatment of lymphomas and leukemias.

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for the development of methods that employ the knockout of FGF1 Intracellular Binding Protein (FIBP) to overcome tumor microenvironment suppression against T-cell mediated immunotherapies.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells that specifically target Glypican 2 (GPC2) are strong therapeutic candidates for patients with neuroblastoma and other GPC2-expressing cancers. The inventors at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have developed a potent anti-GPC2 (CT3) CAR containing CD28 hinge and transmembrane domains (CT3.28H.BBζ) that is available for licensing and co-development.

The NCI seeks parties interested in research co-development and/or licensing of TCRs targeting the BRAF V600E mutation. These TCRs are HLA-A*0301 restricted. The BRAF V600E mutation is common among cancer patients, giving the TCRs broad therapeutic potential in immunotherapy against multiple cancers.

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for a series of PIM Kinase targeting PROTACS.

Researchers at the National Cancer Institute developed a combination immunotherapy using Glypican-3 (GPC3)-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells and a recombinant IL-7 drug for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) developed improved monospecific and bicistronic chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) targeting CD19 and CD20. Importantly, CD19 and CD20 are highly expressed in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, acute lymphoblastic leukemia and other B-cell lymphomas. These improved CARs can be useful in treating these diseases. NCI is seeking parties interested in the co-development or licensing of this invention for immunotherapy.

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for the development and commercialization of small molecule inhibitors of the Eph receptor tyrosine kinase for Eph growth-dependent solid tumors such as colorectal cancer.

National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) seek licensees for a technology involving the preparation and use of personalized tumor vaccines for cancer immunotherapy employing a therapeutic strategy called MBTA. MBTA consists of vaccinations with irradiated tumor cells pulsed with phagocytic agonists (Mannan-BAM, a polysaccharide derivative of mannan), TLR (Toll-like receptor) ligands, and agonistic Anti-CD40-monoclonal antibody.
