The patent rights in these inventions have been assigned to the Government of the United States of America. The territory of the prospective Exclusive Patent License may be worldwide, and the field of use may be limited to “Methods of using exenatide for the treatment of neurodegenerative disease in humans.”
Requests for copies of the patent application(s), inquiries, comments, and other materials relating to the contemplated Exclusive Patent License should be directed to: Tara L. Kirby, Ph.D., Senior Licensing and Patenting Manager, Office of Technology Transfer, National Institutes of Health, 6011 Executive Boulevard, Suite 325, Rockville, MD 20852-3804; Telephone: (301) 435-4426; Facsimile: Start Printed Page 53154(301) 402-0220; Email: tarak@mail.nih.gov. A signed confidentiality nondisclosure agreement will be required to receive copies of any patent applications that have not been published or issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the World Intellectual Property Organization.
This technology relates to the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), exendin-4, and analogs for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. These peptides are GLP-1 receptor agonists and incretin mimetics, and enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion and regulate glucagon secretion. As such, they have been used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The inventors have shown that these peptides also exert neurotrophic and neuroprotective effects in a variety of predictive models of neurodegeneration, and thus may represent potential therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), peripheral neuropathy (associated or unassociated with diabetes) and stroke.
The prospective Exclusive Patent License may be granted unless the NIH receives written evidence and argument, within thirty (30) days from the date of this published notice, that establishes that the grant of the contemplated license would not be consistent with the requirements of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR Part 404.
Complete applications for a license in the prospective field of use that are filed in response to this notice will be treated as objections to the grant of the Exclusive Patent License. Comments and objections submitted to this notice will not be made available for public inspection and, to the extent permitted by law, will not be released under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 552.
