Nova Biologiques, a biotechnology company developing novel vaccines and biologic therapeutic candidates, is pleased to formally announce the launch of its PF-D-Trimer™ SARS-CoV-2 prophylactic vaccine pre-clinical Investigator-Initiated Trial (IIT). In alignment with Nova Biologiques mission to accelerate the development and application of new vaccines, the IIT will provide proof-of-concept data and expanded product knowledge regarding safety and efficacy. The results from the studies are expected by the end of 2022.

The TD™ Trimer-Domain technology platform is a product development platform for the creation of novel vaccines and biologic therapies.  Nova Biologiques has developed and markets applications related to the TD™ Trimer-Domain, the most recent being the development of the prophylactic vaccine PF-D-Trimer™ for protection against SARS-CoV-2.

Nova Biologiques Announces Peer-Reviewed Publication in npj Vaccines of Preclinical Data for SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Candidate Showing 100% Protection.

Montreal, QC, Canada. March 16, 2023 Nova Biologiques announced today the publication of a peer-reviewed animal efficacy study of its SARS-CoV-2 subunit vaccine. The study was published in npj Vaccines.
Nova Biologiques’ vaccine, PF-D-Trimer, the pre-fusion trimerized Delta spike protein, is highly expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The antigen is purified by a rapid one-step anti-Trimer Domain monoclonal antibody immunoaffinity process and prepared as a vaccine formulation with an adjuvant. Immunogenicity studies have shown that this vaccine candidate induces robust immune responses in mouse, rat and Syrian hamster models. It also protects K18-hACE2 transgenic mice in a homologous viral challenge. Neutralizing antibodies induced by this vaccine show cross-reactivity against the ancestral WA1, Delta and several Omicrons, including BA.5.2. The formulated PF-D Trimer is stable for up to six months without refrigeration. The Trimer Domain platform was proven to be a key technology in the rapid production of PF-D-Trimer vaccine and may be crucial to accelerate the development and accessibility of updated versions of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines.
