- EpiVax se asocia con GAIA Vaccine Foundation para ofrecer la licencia gratuita de la vacuna del COVID-19 a países en vías de desarrollo

PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island, 8 de abril de 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- EpiVax, Inc., está aplicando herramientas computacionales avanzadas para acelerar los ensayos clínicos de una posible vacuna del COVID-19 (EPV-CoV19) para profesionales sanitarios en un plazo de seis meses. EpiVax ha anunciado hoy su colaboración con GAIA Vaccine Foundation ("GVF") con el fin de obtener fondos para el proyecto, así como su promesa de ofrecer una licencia gratuita a los países en vías de desarrollo que cumplan los requisitos, como parte de esta colaboración.

La EPV-CoV19 es una vacuna con epítopos y péptidos que se puede producir de forma rápida y segura en la mayoría de países. La aplicación de los conocimientos de EpiVax permitió seleccionar secuencias que representan todos los genomas circulantes del SARS-CoV-2 que provocan una respuesta inmunitaria de los linfocitos T, lo que proporciona a los profesionales sanitarios una "armadura" del sistema inmunitario y reduce el riesgo de morbimortalidad. Los ensayos clínicos de la EPV-CoV19 en EE. UU. arrancarán en cuanto se recauden los fondos necesarios (1,75 millones de dólares).

GVF, organización sin ánimo de lucro 501(c)(3), permitirá a particulares y fundaciones contribuir al desarrollo de la EPV-CoV19. La misión de GVF es reducir la incidencia de las enfermedades infecciosas que afectan de forma desproporcionada a los más desfavorecidos y fomentar el desarrollo de vacunas accesibles relevantes a escala mundial que se puedan distribuir sin ánimo de lucro en los países en vías de desarrollo. La Dra. Annie De Groot, consejera delegada y directora científica de EpiVax, afirmó que "esta crisis revelará el alma de cada empresa. Personalmente, no creo que sea el momento de hacerse millonario. Todos deberíamos hacer lo que mejor sabemos para reducir el impacto del COVID-19 a escala mundial". Dado que la misión de EpiVax es "mejorar la salud humana en todas partes", la empresa ha cedido a GVF una licencia gratuita exenta de regalías sobre el diseño de la EPV-CoV19 para su uso en países que puedan producir y someter a pruebas la posible vacuna en la lista de países menos desarrollados publicada por Naciones Unidas. Se han localizado colaboradores y un centro de ensayo clínico en África occidental.

Las donaciones recibidas para el fondo de la vacuna para el COVID-19 de GVF se destinarán en su totalidad a las fases de desarrollo preclínica y clínica de la EPV-CoV19.
