Whole Cell Vaccine/Adjuvant Platform

Whole Cell Vaccine/Adjuvant Platform

  • Effective vaccines against many bacteria require T cell immunity, but few vaccines elicit such responses
  • OCR6913 is chemical technique for attaching a T cell-stimulating adjuvant (CPX2) directly to bacteria
  • This adjuvant potently activates T cell- promoting signals through TLR7
  • Demonstrated protective effect of the vaccine in vivo in S. aureus bacteremia model
  • This chemistry allows synthesis of whole cell vaccines against any culturable bacteria or fungus
