ImmunityBio (NASDAQ: IBRX) announced the initiation of its HIV clinical pipeline, featuring a study of Anktiva™ (N-803) aimed at controlling HIV after pausing antiretroviral therapy. Sponsored by the NIAID, this trial evaluates Anktiva alone or with broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNABs). A second Phase 2 study will assess Anktiva during acute HIV infection, conducted by the U.S. Military HIV Research Program. Anktiva has shown potential in reversing HIV latency and activating immune responses, presenting a promising avenue for treatment alternatives.
ImmunityBio announced two clinical trials in South Africa to evaluate its hAd5 T-cell-based COVID-19 vaccine. The first trial focuses on using the vaccine as a "Universal Boost" for healthcare workers already vaccinated. The second will assess safety and efficacy after prior COVID-19 infection. Key features include multiple administration methods potentially enhancing access and effectiveness. Preliminary studies in the U.S. show promise with a 10-fold increase in T cell response. Future phases will involve larger participant groups to confirm long-term immunity against variants.
