BW-1019, an intranasal COVID-19 booster, elicits mucosal immunity, stopping spread at the entry of the virus and, provided protection and boosted immune response when administered following an intramuscular vaccine series in preclinical studies.
The results from study served as basis for immunobriding that gives MVC-COV1901 vaccine's Emergency Use Authorization in Taiwan and can support the advancement in subsequent developments.MVC-COV1901 vaccine involves molecular modifications to S-2P pre-fusion spike protein.

Recombinant S-2P antigen,CpG 1018,Aluminum hydroxide
First participant has been dosed in the Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating MVC’s COVID-19 vaccine candidate, MVC-COV1901. MVC-COV1901 is a subunit vaccine with recombinant S-2P antigen adjuvanted with CpG 1018 supplied by Dynavax.
Preclinical research demonstrated that BlueWillow’s nasal vaccine adjuvant combined with Medigen’s S-2P spike protein resulted in an extremely high neutralizing antibody response, as well as a superior IgA response in both serum and lung secretions samples in mice.
The first participant in MVC's Phase 1 clinical trial was dosed with MVC's COVID-19 vaccine combined with Dynavax's CpG 1018 adjuvant at National Taiwan University Hospital in early October.
The partners will leverage Medigen’s stable prefusion form of the SARS-CoV2 recombinant spike protein in combination with Dynavax’s advanced adjuvant CpG 1018.
