IAVI and Moderna have initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial for an experimental HIV vaccine at George Washington University. The trial aims to evaluate mRNA-based immunogens' ability to induce neutralizing antibodies in healthy participants. Following promising results from a previous trial, this study will examine the effectiveness of the mRNA platform in vaccine design. The trial involves 56 volunteers and aims to produce critical immune responses against HIV variants. Supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, this research represents a significant step in HIV vaccine development.
Moderna has commenced the Phase 2 study of its Omicron-specific booster candidate, mRNA-1273.529, with the first participant dosed. The study aims to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the booster in two cohorts: those with a primary series of mRNA-1273 and those with an additional 50 µg booster dose. While neutralizing antibodies against Omicron showed a 6.3-fold decline six months post-boost, they remained detectable in all participants. Moderna plans to share findings to inform public health decisions on booster strategies against SARS-CoV-2.
