2026-16440, NIH Owned Invention Available for License: Soluble Tissue Factor, a Novel Target, and Antibodies, for Diagnosis, Prevention and Treatment of Thrombosis and Related Conditions
Scientists at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have discovered a novel therapeutic, diagnostic and prognostic target for thrombosis: Soluble Tissue Factor (sTF). NCI has generated first-in- class antibodies and platform selectively neutralizing pathological coagulation while preserving normal hemostasis. This platform technology can be used to prevent, diagnose and treat pathological thrombosis caused by a variety of clinical conditions-including cancer, sepsis, infectious diseases (e.g., COVID), autoimmune disorders, trauma, heart conditions and inflammatory conditions. It offers a much more sensitive and specific test of thrombosis than the current D-dimer test. It may be applicable to any clinical condition which induces necroptosis, pyroptosis and NETtosis, such as cancer, neurodegenerative disease, ischemia-reperfusion and acute injuries, traumatic injuries, bacterial and viral infections, cardiovascular conditions, and atherosclerosis, inflammatory, autoimmune conditions, and others.

Burden levels remain unchanged.
2026-14980, Government Owned Invention Available for License: Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor Peptides and Their Use for Treating Retinal Degeneration
The National Eye Institute has a cool new invention using special peptides to help protect eyes from inherited diseases like retinitis pigmentosa, which causes vision loss for over 100,000 Americans. They’re looking for partners to help develop easy-to-use eyedrops or gene therapy to slow down or stop this eye damage. This could bring hope and new treatments to many people with few options, and interested parties can start talking to the NIH now!
