SARS-CoV-2 vaccines strategies: a comprehensive review of phase 3 candidates

Nikolaos C. Kyriakidis, Andrés López‐Cortés, Jorge Vásconez-González et al. · 22 Feb 2021

The new SARS-CoV-2 virus is an RNA virus that belongs to the Coronaviridae family and causes COVID-19 disease. The newly sequenced virus appears to originate in China and rapidly spread throughout the world, becoming a pandemic that, until January 5th, 2021, has caused more than 1,866,000 deaths. Hence, laboratories worldwide are developing an effective vaccine…

Turning the corner on therapeutic cancer vaccines

Robert E. Hollingsworth, Kathrin U. Jansen · 8 Feb 2019

Recent advances in several areas are rekindling interest and enabling progress in the development of therapeutic cancer vaccines. These advances have been made in target selection, vaccine technology, and methods for reversing the immunosuppressive mechanisms exploited by cancers. Studies testing different tumor antigens have revealed target properties that yield high tumor versus normal cell specificity…

The how’s and what’s of vaccine reactogenicity

Caroline Hervé, Béatrice Laupèze, Giuseppe Del Giudice et al. · 24 Sep 2019

Reactogenicity represents the physical manifestation of the inflammatory response to vaccination, and can include injection-site pain, redness, swelling or induration at the injection site, as well as systemic symptoms, such as fever, myalgia, or headache. The experience of symptoms following vaccination can lead to needle fear, long-term negative attitudes and non-compliant behaviours, which undermine the…

The promise of mRNA vaccines: a biotech and industrial perspective

Nicholas A. C. Jackson, Kent E. Kester, Danilo R. Casimiro et al. · 4 Feb 2020

mRNA technologies have the potential to transform areas of medicine, including the prophylaxis of infectious diseases. The advantages for vaccines range from the acceleration of immunogen discovery to rapid response and multiple disease target manufacturing. A greater understanding of quality attributes that dictate translation efficiency, as well as a comprehensive appreciation of the importance of…

Optimizing the utilization of aluminum adjuvants in vaccines: you might just get what you want

Harm HogenEsch, Derek T. O’Hagan, Christopher B. Fox · 3 Oct 2018

Aluminum-containing adjuvants have been used for over 90 years to enhance the immune response to vaccines. Recent work has significantly advanced our understanding of the physical, chemical, and biological properties of these adjuvants, offering key insights on underlying mechanisms. Given the long-term success of aluminum adjuvants, we believe that they should continue to represent the…
