Find Novel Drugs for Infections and Infectious Diseases under Discovery
The initial SARS-CoV-2 research program at Calibr, the drug discovery and development division of Scripps Research, was supported by funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to deliver next generation oral antiviral treatments.
The vaccine targets multiple viral antigens with the aim of generating an antibody and T-cell based immune response, whose breadth more closely mimics that of convalescent patients.
The two companies will build upon their existing collaboration to pursue novel mRNA vaccines aimed at broadly addressing current and future infectious diseases.
The collaboration will build on InSilicoTrials' existing platform and its InSilicoVaccine Suite to create vertical products based on modified Outer Membrane Vesicles (mOMV), with a specific focus on vaccines and monoclonal antibodies against infectious diseases.
Under the agreement, the companies will utilize the microbial platform technology developed by bitBiome to obtain drug candidates for the treatment of infectious diseases with high unmet medical needs.
The funding will support TB drug discovery, and will allow the Company to progress a portfolio of TB drug discovery projects that have the potential to contribute to a universal, shorter, safer and simpler TB drug regimen.
The partnership aims to provide long-lasting infectious diseases medicines to high-risk patients by bringing together RQ Bio’s expertise in infectious diseases and viral evolution with AbCellera’s discovery engine for finding rare, highly potent antibodies.
The funding will support the development of next generation pan-SARS-CoV-2 and pan-sarbecovirus vaccines using novel SpyVector platform. SpyVector is a platform based on recombinant adenovirus.
The funding will be used for the research and development of novel antimalarial drugs by Takeda and MMV. The investment will help identify multiple promising compounds in the early stages of research and development.
Under the terms of the collaboration, Shionogi, Nagasaki University and MMV will accelerate the evaluation and the development of new drugs for the treatment of malaria.
