NanoBio Corporation has announced that it will present promising pre-clinical study data of its nano-emulsion (NE)-adjuvanted intranasal herpes simplex virus-2 (HSV-2) vaccine at the Annual Conference on Vaccine Research.
NanoBio Senior VP of Vaccine Research Ali Fattom explained that the company “will present data from pre-clinical guinea pig studies demonstrating the ability of NanoBio’s intranasal NE vaccine to enhance protection against HSV-2 as compared to leading intramuscular vaccine candidates. The data further indicates that this enhanced protection is a result of mucosal immunity that is elicited by intranasal NE vaccines. Based on these results, we are currently conducting additional studies in guinea pigs to optimize dosing. We expect to advance a NE vaccine candidate for HSV-2 into clinical testing in the near future.”
