7:05 NVAX Novavax: New England Journal of Medicine publishes positive data from clinical trial of Novavax' vaccine against H7N9 avian flu (2.91 +0.06)

Co announced that positive clinical data for the company's virus-like particle (VLP) vaccine candidate against A(H7N9) influenza were published online in the Correspondence section of The New England Journal of Medicine. The correspondence can be found at: http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc1313186 and will appear in the December 26, 2013 print edition. The study, conducted in 284 adult male and female subjects, examined the safety and immunogenicity of two administrations of Novavax' A(H7N9) VLP vaccine candidate on day 0 and day 21. Subjects were administered either placebo, 15 or 45 µg of vaccine alone, or 5 or 15µg of vaccine with either 30 or 60 ISCO units of the saponin-based ISCOMATRIX adjuvant, developed by CSL Limited in Australia. Serology was assessed at Days 0, 21 and 35 post-first immunization. The Novavax A(H7N9) VLP vaccine candidate was generally well tolerated, and the safety was in line with the company's previous findings with its influenza VLP antigens using ISCOMATRIX adjuvant.
Data highlights:
81% of 5ug adjuvanted vaccine recipients had protective HAI levels
97% of 5ug adjuvanted vaccine recipients had anti-neuraminidase antibody responses
Protective levels achieved from vaccinations within 116 days of the announced outbreak of novel lethal H7N9 virus
Dose-sparing formulation shows significant potential utility in the event of a pandemic
