Rhea-AI Summary
Vaxart, Inc. announces promising preclinical non-human primate data demonstrating the potential of its COVID-19 vaccine to protect against multiple SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern. The data support the vaccine platform's potential to stimulate potent mucosal cross-reactive IgA responses to multiple VOCs and reduce viral transmission. Vaxart's preparation for a Phase 2b trial of its COVID-19 XBB vaccine candidate is supported by a recent grant awarded by the United States Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA). The study published in Vaccines showed that all three vaccines elicited strong cross-reactive systemic immunity and robust cross-reactive nasal and lung IgA following mucosal vaccination, as well as reduced viral replication and infectious particle shedding in immunized animals after challenge with the beta variant of SARS-CoV-2.
