Products

Chikungunya DNA-launched live-attenuated vaccine candidate (preclinical)

A preclinical DNA-launched live-attenuated vaccine candidate evaluated in mice that elicits neutralizing antibodies and protection in challenge models.

Influenza multivalent VLP vaccine constructs (preclinical)

Recombinant multivalent virus-like particle vaccine constructs targeting multiple influenza hemagglutinin subtypes evaluated in ferret challenge models.

Lassa fever reassortant live-attenuated vaccine candidate (preclinical)

A reassortant live-attenuated vaccine candidate shown to protect mice, guinea pigs and non-human primates against multiple Lassa virus genotypes in preclinical studies.

Japanese encephalitis iDNA vaccine candidate (preclinical)

A DNA-launched live-attenuated vaccine construct encoding a synthetic live-attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus, evaluated for seroconversion and neutralizing antibody induction in mice.

Dengue and Zika iDNA vaccine candidates (preclinical)

iDNA-encoded synthetic live-attenuated vaccine plasmids designed for all four dengue serotypes and related Zika vaccine constructs, intended for direct vaccination or for cell-culture vaccine production.
