Clover Biopharmaceuticals Announces Positive Phase 1 Data for its Adjuvanted S-Trimer COVID-19 Vaccine Candidates

The Pharma Data

Strong Th1 cell-mediated immune responses were also observed for the vaccine candidates with either adjuvant. We are encouraged by the high level of neutralizing antibodies in combination with the strong Th1 response which we believe could play an important role in controlling infection.

New insights into the role of viral capsids in gene therapy safety

Drug Target Review

1 In 2017, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first AAV-based gene replacement therapy (Luxturna), for Leber congenital amaurosis type 2. 2 Since then, the FDA has approved four more AAV-based gene therapies—Zolgensma, Hemgenix, Elevidys and Rocktavian—for treating various diseases.

He showed that these synthetic CAR T cells could launch an immune response when they encountered the corresponding tumor protein, called CD19. A similar CAR from another company, Kite Pharmaceuticals (now a Gilead company), was approved by the FDA in 2017 as the second commercial CAR T-cell therapy.

The treatment, now known as Casgevy, became the first CRISPR-based therapy to gain FDA approval, in 2023. The core of the CRISPR immune response is a guide RNA (gRNA) that binds to a CRISPR-associated (Cas) protein. Collectively, these repeat-protospacer regions are known as CRISPR arrays.

A research team searches for every gene that helps tumors evade immunotherapy

Broad Institute

As a first step, Manguso set his sights on treatments called PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors, which at the time had shown tremendous promise in clinical trials and would receive their first FDA approval in 2014. They are used to treat cancers including melanoma and non-small cell lung cancer, but work only for a small fraction of patients.
