National Cancer Institute; Notice of Closed Meeting

    Pursuant to section 1009 of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as 
amended, notice is hereby given of the following meeting.
    The meeting will be closed to the public in accordance with the 
provisions set forth in sections 552b(c)(4) and 552b(c)(6), title 5 
U.S.C., as amended. The purpose of this meeting is to evaluate requests 
for preclinical development resources for potential new therapeutics 
for the treatment of cancer. The outcome of the evaluation will provide 
information to internal NCI committees that will decide whether NCI 
should support requests and make available contract resources for 
development of the potential therapeutic to improve the treatment of 
various forms of cancer. The research proposals and the discussions 
could disclose confidential trade secrets or commercial property such 
as patentable material, and personal information concerning individuals 
associated with the proposed research projects, the disclosure of which 
would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.

    Name of Committee: National Cancer Institute Special Emphasis 
Panel; OCT2024 Cycle 48 NExT SEP Committee Meeting.
    Date: December 10, 2024.
    Time: 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
    Agenda: To evaluate the NCI Experimental Therapeutics Program 
Portfolio.
    Place: National Institutes of Health, 9000 Rockville Pike, 
Building 31, Room 3A44, Bethesda, Maryland 20892 (Virtual Meeting).
    Contact Persons: Barbara Mroczkowski, Ph.D., Executive 
Secretary, Discovery Experimental Therapeutics Program, National 
Cancer Institute, NIH, 31 Center Drive, Room 3A44, Bethesda, 
Maryland 20817, 301-496-4291, <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#9df0eff2fee7f6f2eef6f4ffddf0fcf4f1b3f3f4f5b3faf2eb"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="c4a9b6aba7beafabb7afada684a9a5ada8eaaaadaceaa3abb2">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>.
    Toby Hecht, Ph.D., Executive Secretary, Development Experimental 
Therapeutics Program, National Cancer Institute, NIH, 9609 Medical

    This notice is being published less than 15 days from the 
meeting date due to exceptional circumstances. An unanticipated 
number of projects for clinical trial support of promising 
experimental therapeutics treating various cancer types, including 
pediatric cancer, were received which delayed the identification of 
panel members with the appropriate expertise. If the meeting is not 
held on December 10, 2024, there will be a profound negative impact 
on translational cancer research resulting in a 6-9-month delay in 
funding which will significantly slow down the initiation of 
meritorious projects/clinical trials by one year.
