This study at HZI will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of different virosome-based Covid-19 vaccine candidates by intramuscular and intranasal administrations. The virosome formulations will incorporate and evaluate two different SARS-CoV-2 antigens, one full length stabilized S protein, for which Mymetics is collaborating with the group of Dr. Rogier Sanders at the Amsterdam Medical Center of the University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and the second is a receptor binding domain recombinant protein of SARS-CoV-2.
The study at HZI is part of the TRANSVAC2 services, funded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement N° 730964, to which Mymetics' subsidiary Mymetics SA in Switzerland received access to in June this year, results are expected in January 2021.
