of San Diego, and partner Tripep AB, of Stockholm, Sweden, completed a 12-patient Phase I study of ChronVac-C, a hepatitis C virus DNA vaccine delivered using Inovio's electroporation technology, with results showing safety and tolerability, with vaccine-induced immune responses and transient effects on the serum levels of HCV in chronically infected patients.
The use of conserved epitopes is expected to make it harder for the virus to develop mutation variants that can escape the vaccine-induced immune response and reduce the chances of re-infection of the patient with a different virus strain.
The majority of vaccines in routine use today are administered by injection, which is not only a comparatively less desirable means of delivery, but also limits the strength of the vaccine-induced immune response in mucosal tissues.
We believe that Coley's CpG oligonucleotide immunostimulants will provide a significant enhancement to vaccine-induced immune responses required to treat these difficult cancers," said Jean Stephenne, President and General Manager, GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals.
Ongoing trials are being conducted with REMUNE to determine whether or not vaccine-induced immune responses correlate with antiviral effects.
As a result, it is expected to be harder for the virus to develop variants that can escape the vaccine-induced immune response.
The majority of vaccines in routine use today are administered by injection, which is not only a comparatively less desirable means of delivery, but also limits the strength of the vaccine-induced immune response in mucosal tissues.
In this way, the virus is less likely to escape the vaccine-induced immune response and will more likely be controlled.
