Projectdetails

Introduction

Immunethep has developed, patented (WO/2015/189422), and successfully undergone preclinical trials for a new breakthrough vaccine (PNV-Paragon Novel Vaccine).

Vaccine Overview

It protects against bacterial infections caused by 5 different bacteria:

  • S. aureus
  • S. pneumoniae
  • K. pneumoniae
  • E. coli
  • GBS

Innovation

Our innovation relies on the discovery of a virulence and immunosuppressive mechanism common to these pathogens. The bacteria excrete a highly immunosuppressive protein designated as glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), which disables the host immune response to infection.

Mechanism of Action

PNV works by blocking bacterial GAPDH, while not reacting to human GAPDH, allowing the host immune system to fight infection and eliminate the bacteria.

Efficacy and Safety

Preclinical trials demonstrated high levels of efficacy against any of the 5 bacteria with an excellent safety profile. PNV is the world’s first vaccine not only to prevent multiple bacterial infections but for all invasive serotypes, including multi-resistant strains.
