T-cell vaccine for COVID-19 may last longer than current vaccines

The Pharma Data

The current COVID-19 vaccines are designed to trigger an antibody response to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, which is vulnerable to mutations that could make the vaccine less effective over time. These epitopes elicit an immune response from a broad selection of T cells, ensuring a sustained coverage of future variants.

Amtagvi (Lifileucel) Scores Landmark Win as First FDA-Approved T-Cell Therapy for a Solid Tumor

XTalks

TILs are immune cells that attack and penetrate tumors. The immune cells in both cases are then infused back into the patient. Amtagvi is approved for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic melanoma following prior treatment with a PD-1 inhibitor and a BRAF inhibitor if the tumor harbors a BRAF V600 mutation.

ImmunityBio’s hAd5 T-Cell COVID-19 Vaccine Candidate Shows Complete Protection of Airways in Non-Human Primates

The Pharma Data

In the study, immunization with the hAd5-COVID-19 vaccine inhibited SARS-CoV-2 virus replication in 100% (10 of 10) of Rhesus macaques, with a drop in viral replication starting on the first day of vaccine administration, and undetectable viral levels as early as three to five days post-challenge in most of the animals.
