Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM), University of Hawai\u02bbi at M\u0101noa, have confirmed the feasibility of developing a broadly immunogenic vaccine for COVID-19.\u00a0Using an efficient expression system in <i>Drosophila<\/i> S2 cells developed by Hawaii Biotech Inc., full-length Spike protein antigens have been produced and tested for immunogenicity in this latest work. These latest results demonstrate the immunogenic potential of the full-length CiVax\u2122 antigen in combination with CoVaccine HT\u2122, specifically in the context of SARS-CoV-2.<\/p>\n<p>While a number of vaccines are available worldwide under Emergency Use Authorization, the requirement for cold chain shipping and timely administration, coupled with manufacturing scale up logistics, have limited the world&#8217;s supply. Rapid vaccine administration worldwide is necessary to curtail disease spread and slow or pre-empt evolution of mutations, which may abrogate the effectiveness of current vaccine approaches. Previous work with the novel CoVaccine HT\u2122 adjuvant, which Soligenix licensed from BTG Specialty Pharmaceuticals, a division of Boston Scientific Corporation, has indicated that CoVaccine HT\u2122 can be thermostabilized both alone and in combination with antigens, potentially yielding a single vial presentation of the vaccine, which would not require cold chain distribution or storage.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our work to date has demonstrated not only the feasibility of rapidly adaptable and cost-effective manufacturing of the required vaccine antigens, but also the potential for a broadly applicable and easily distributed vaccine,&#8221; stated Dr. Lehrer.\u00a0&#8220;We are delighted with our earlier successes on development of filovirus and flavivirus vaccines with this platform.\u00a0The results in our latest manuscript confirm that the advantages of our vaccine platform with the CoVaccine HT\u2122 adjuvant can also be realized in the context of SARS-CoV-2, while we continue our work to rapidly advance development of a heat stable subunit COVID-19 vaccine in collaboration with Soligenix. Next steps will include evaluation of immunogenicity in a non-human primate model and assessment of antibody coverage with key variants of concern.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We believe that creating a vaccine with enhanced stability at elevated temperatures that can obviate the costs and logistical burdens associated with cold chain storage and distribution has the potential to simplify worldwide distribution, leading to a faster resolution of this pandemic and curtailing the further evolution of the virus,&#8221; stated <span class=\"xn-person\">Christopher J. Schaber<\/span>, PhD, President and Chief Executive Officer of Soligenix.\u00a0&#8220;Once fully developed, we anticipate that our platform would be easily updated to address specific variants directly. Our approach appears to be unique in its use of a well-established, well-understood, and safe, subunit platform coupled with a novel adjuvant and a thermostabilizing formulation. We are very encouraged with the latest results and look forward to continuing to advance development of CiVax\u2122 in larger animal models and human clinical trials.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About Coronavirus Infection <\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Coronavirus infections can cause a wide spectrum of disease in humans, ranging from a common cold to a more severe respiratory infection, such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), which have a case mortality rate of approximately 10% and 30%, respectively.\u00a0Similar to filoviruses, coronaviruses also are endemic in wildlife populations and can be transmitted to humans with close contact.\u00a0The COVID-19 outbreak, caused by SARS-CoV-2, is the most recent example of a suspected species crossover seen with this virus family. COVID-19 has been declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization.\u00a0The global impact of this emerging infection demonstrates the urgent need for robust technology platforms to rapidly develop new vaccines for novel diseases. Despite vaccines approved under Emergency Use Authorization, the logistical challenges of cold chain distribution and manufacturing scale up are limiting the ability to vaccinate individuals worldwide, a required to curtail further viral mutations and stop the pandemic. More rapid distribution of vaccines worldwide will also curtail the emergence of new variants.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About John A.
