- This federal Project Grant award of $4,630,686 from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) supports research to develop an effective HIV vaccine. The primary goal is to stimulate B cell lineages capable of producing broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) against diverse HIV strains, a key challenge in traditional vaccine approaches. The research involves preclinical studies in non-human primates using the BG505...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), supports research to develop a multivalent mRNA HIV vaccine that can elicit broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting the conserved envelope (Env) region of recently circulating subtype C HIV strains. The central hypothesis is that priming with a single Env immunogen followed by boosting with a multivalent Env immunogen set...

The University of Pennsylvania received a $891,410 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) to conduct research on therapeutic vaccination strategies to boost autologous neutralizing antibodies for ART-free HIV control. The award is focused on testing whether individualized mRNA-LNP delivered Env immunogens can enhance baseline autologous neutralizing antibody responses and elicit durable ART-free virus control, compared to off-the-shelf germline targeting immunogens or ART alone. The award has an ultimate completion date of July 31, 2030.
