AAHI Partners with the Department of Defense to Develop a Nasal Spray that Could be Broadly Protective Against a Wide Spectrum of Respiratory Viruses

AAHI is awarded $3 million to develop an intranasal pan-viral countermeasure against respiratory viruses. AAHI scientists will develop a prototype nasal spray using AAHI's novel formulation of two immune-stimulating adjuvants (TLR agonists) as a pre-exposure prophylactic against infectious respiratory diseases, including novel viruses and newly emerging variants of existing viruses. AAHI scientists will test the nasal spray against pandemic influenza and Nipah virus in preclinical studies. If successful, the activities under the award will support rapid initiation of Phase 1 clinical trials in humans.

IN THE NEWS

By Anthony King

Shark-derived squalene has been used in hundreds of millions of doses of vaccine, including for flu and Covid-19 and is in candidate vaccines for tuberculosis and malaria. "Our vision is to develop next generation vaccines, whether for influenza or Covid, using such compounds," Christopher Fox tells Chemistry World, "Additional preclinical work in different animal models is needed to establish protective efficacy and safety."
