The Booming Potential of mRNA Technology

Roots Analysis

Vaccinations in the past have always been either weak or inactive forms of a pathogen which was given to the body so that our immune system is trained to recognize that given pathogen. The immune system will then recognize it as foreign and learn how to fight it.

An expected and well-known side effect of these B cell-targeted therapies is “B cell aplasia”— i.e. partial or complete depletion of B cells from circulation and immune organs. Lymphocytes have an extraordinary capacity to proliferate in response to immune stimulation. In these cases B cell depletion is a feature, not a bug.

ImmunityBio’s hAd5 T-Cell COVID-19 Vaccine Candidate Shows Complete Protection of Airways in Non-Human Primates

The Pharma Data

In the study, immunization with the hAd5-COVID-19 vaccine inhibited SARS-CoV-2 virus replication in 100% (10 of 10) of Rhesus macaques, with a drop in viral replication starting on the first day of vaccine administration, and undetectable viral levels as early as three to five days post-challenge in most of the animals.
