Formulated vaccine product, it’s got to be stable over time so showing that Nuvec can be dried, stored, and reconstituted is part of that data that we’re going to need to talk to partners. So, showing this is a really good step forward with this work, but it’s not just about being stable, it’s about how it’s stable.
What’s key for Nuvec is our early data looks like we’ll be able to store it, just at room temperature so storing at room temperature would be fine. That’s a major difference compared to lipid systems, for example, where people are using it for mRNA, that require freezing so the Pfizer product, one of the vaccines for COVID for Pfizer and BioEnTech, that has to be stored at minus 92 degrees. So that’s going to be a major issue when it comes to rolling out that vaccine when it’s proven to be successful.
For us, the next steps will be to demonstrate how long our formulated Nuvec products can be stored in room conditions etc. and then still work.
So, doing that formulation stability work is crucial to helping partnership discussions.
