In a study published in Nature Communications, researchers from Nanjing University present a novel nanovaccine cocktail formulated by individual conjugation of antigen p210 and adjuvant CpG ODNs onto superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs).
An Institut Pasteur team has developed an original vaccine platform known as MOPEVAC, that will strengthen the organization’s pandemic preparedness initiatives, with the platform’s first vaccine candidate, which targets Lassa fever, set to enter the clinic.
Everest Medicines Ltd. has obtained IND clearance from the FDA for EVM-14, an off-the-shelf mRNA cancer vaccine targeting multiple tumor-associated antigens and designed to treat various cancers, including non-small-cell lung cancer and head and neck cancer.
Researchers from Diosynvax Ltd. presented data from a study that aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a pan-H5 vaccine designed using computational biology and being developed for protection against avian influenza.
Peptide-based vaccines deliver tumor-specific antigens to dendritic cells (DCs), triggering tumor-targeted T-cell responses. A peptide-peptide conjugate technology previously developed by researchers from Uppsala University and collaborators enhances this process by using multiple tetanus toxin-derived B-cell epitopes (MTTEs) to facilitate in vivo antigen delivery and DC activation.
CARB-X (Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Biopharmaceutical Accelerator) has announced it will award US$2 million to Immunethep SA to develop a conjugated peptide-based vaccine to prevent infections from all invasive serotypes of Escherichia coli.
Io Biotech Aps has presented preclinical data regarding their Arg1-derived peptide cancer vaccine IO-112 as a potential immunotherapeutic that would allow controlling the tumor microenvironment.
CSPC Pharmaceutical Group Ltd. has gained clinical trial clearance from China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for SYS-6017, an mRNA vaccine to prevent herpes zoster infections.
The development of an effective HIV vaccine remains an urgent public health need due to the high genetic variability and rapid mutation rates of the virus, which limit the generation of broadly neutralizing antibodies.
A recent study published in Nature Communications by researchers at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and collaborators evaluated a replicating RNA (repRNA) vaccine designed to target a contemporary bovine-derived H5N1 virus and compared its efficacy to a vaccine based on a historical H5N1 strain used in stockpiled vaccines.
