DNA/RNA vaccines

Research Question

  • Efficacious and safe nucleic acid-based vaccines

Research Gaps and Challenges

  • Durable protection
  • Identification of the most suitable antigens and its genetic code.
  • Adjuvants for DNA/RNA vaccines
  • Storage and delivery of vaccine
  • Cost-effectiveness

Solution Routes

  • Enhanced immunogenicity using molecular adjuvants
  • Production and trial (in-ovo trials) of the most suitable antigens

Dependencies

  • Develop adjuvants that can increase immunogenicity

State Of the Art

  • There are mRNA candidate vaccines currently under clinical trials. DNA
    vaccine licensed in US but not currently in use. RNA vaccine have
    limited use in LMIC due to storage issues
