VaxDesign's model may soften, if not sidestep, such devastating setbacks by allowing researchers to road test a vaccine in human immune systems earlier than ever before. In essence, the constructs act as "clinical trials in a test tube." When an experimental vaccine enters the tissue constructs, the simulated immune...
MIMIC's speed and flexibility makes it particularly attractive to AIDS vaccine researchers. As things stand, it takes months for potential AIDS vaccines to graduate from small-animal trials to monkey studies. "That takes a lot of time, and, with HIV, we don't have a lot of time," says...
IAVI's search for an answer led them to Florida. Earlier this month, IAVI chose VaxDesign to receive the first award from its Innovation Fund, which supports potential breakthrough technologies applicable to AIDS vaccine research. Compared to what's available, MIMIC offers a dramatic increase in scale and speed, says...
If all goes well with test runs on licensed vaccines for yellow fever and rabies, VaxDesign will begin work on potential AIDS vaccines next year. While critics might argue that MIMIC is too oversimplified to be useful, Koff doesn't agree. "From our point of view, [VaxDesign is] further advanced...
