Evaxion A/S is advancing its cytomegalovirus (CMV) vaccine program, EVX-V1, with new data demonstrating protective effects of lead antigens in the program. EVX-V1 is a next-generation, multicomponent vaccine program combining novel AI-discovered antigens with AI-optimized versions of established CMV vaccine antigens.
Antengene Corp. Ltd. has outlined progress in its early-stage pipeline. The company has leveraged its Antengager T-cell engager (TCE) platform for the discovery of multiple investigational programs.
Harbour Biomed is stepping up its antibody discovery process by using AI to develop innovative therapeutics. “We have done great through the traditional way of generating leads and designing molecules, but there’s a major gap as some therapeutics cannot reach the desired location or common targets,” Harbour Biomed founder, chairman and CEO Jingsong Wang told BioWorld.

By transplanting a pig kidney into a brain-dead person, researchers have been able to conduct the first long-term study of the physiological processes occurring in both the transplant recipient and the pig organ for 61 days. The findings were published in the Nov. 14, 2025, issue of Nature in two papers – one focusing on physiological and immunological measurements, the other on multiomics.
South Korean researchers led by Lee In-suk of Yonsei University have reported the most complete oral microbiome catalog to date, with more than 72,000 genomes. Detailed in Cell Host & Microbe on Nov. 12, 2025, the database is expected to serve as a universal platform for academia and enable “precision microbiome medicine” for the industry, Lee told BioWorld.

Fifteen years since the first patient was treated, and after being ditched by two companies, the EMA is recommending approval of Waskyra (etuvetidigene autotemcel), the first gene therapy for treating Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome.
Investigators from the University of Science and Technology of China and RNAlfa Biotech have described a novel mRNA-based vaccine candidate against Dabie Banda virus (DBV), which has fatality rates of up to 30% in some East Asian countries.
