License: Uridine Prodrug Analogues:

Uses in Cancer Diagnosis and Therapy

AGENCY: National Institutes of Health,

Public Health Service, DHHS.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: This is notice, in accordance

with 35 U.S.C. 209(c)(1) and 37 CFR

404.7(a)(1)(i), that the National

Health and Human Services, is

contemplating the grant of an exclusive

license to practice the inventions

embodied in PCT Patent Application S/

N PCT/US98/23109 (23109) entitled,

‘‘Antitumor Uridine Analogs’’ which

was filed on October 10, 1998 and

claims priority to U.S. Patent

Application S/N 60/063,587 entitled,

‘‘Diagnosis and Treatment of Tumors

with Drugs Activated by Thymidylate

Synthase,’’ which was filed on October

10, 1997 to Nascent Pharmaceuticals

LLC of San Francisco, California. The

patent rights in these inventions have

been assigned to the United States of

America.

The prospective exclusive license

territory will be worldwide and the field

of use may be limited to human

therapeutics and diagnostics for the

detection and treatment of breast and

gastrointestinal cancers.

DATES: Only written comments and/or

license applications which are received

by the National Institutes of Health on

or before July 17, 2000 will be

considered.

ADDRESSES: Requests for copies of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

technology claimed in ‘23109 relates to

methods, compounds and compositions

for diagnosing and/or treating cancers

with anti-tumor agents activated by

thymidylate synthase (TS) and/or

thymidine kinase (TK). In addition, the

invention relates to the preparation and

use of positron emitting nucleoside

analogues for imaging applications.

TS is an essential enzyme for DNA

synthesis, and it has been shown to be
