1.BCG Vaccine Clinical Experiment for Against Covid-19
Researchers in four countries (the Netherlands, Australia, Germany, and the United Kingdom) will soon begin clinical trials of new coronaviruses using unconventional methods.They will test whether a century-old anti-tuberculosis (TB) vaccine (BCG) can broadly improve the body's immune system, making it better able to fight sars-cov-2 and possibly prevent infection altogether.The study will be administered to people at high risk, including physicians and nurses, and to older adults.
Researchers in Germany are also testing VPM1002, a genetically modified version of BCG, developed by the Max Planck Institute, in a Phase 3 trial.
The partners involved, Vakzine Project Management (VPM) and the Serum Institute of India, have already held promising discussions with the authorities regarding the implementation of a Phase III study with VPM1002 in Germany in order to investigate the effectiveness of the vaccine in elderly people and healthcare workers. "These population groups are particularly affected by the current pandemic", says Leander Grode, Managing Director of VPM "and could therefore particularly benefit from a vaccination with VPM1002". If the results are positive, VPM1002 could help ease the burden on healthcare systems until a vaccine specifically effective against SARS-CoV-2 becomes available.
2.Introduce of VPM1002,a Genetically Modified More Effective BCG Vaccine
VPM1002 is based on a vaccine called BCG, which was developed at the beginning of the 20th century. The BCG vaccine consists of an attenuated (weakened) version of a relative of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of TB. Studies on mice show that the BCG vaccine can protect not only against tuberculosis but also against viral infections of the respiratory tract.
The vaccine candidate, originally developed at the Max Planck Institute for Infection Biology in Berlin by the group of Stefan H.E. Kaufmann, thus provides more effective protection against tuberculosis than the old vaccine and is intended for use in new-borns as well as for boosting a vaccination in adults.
Recent studies have shown that VPM1002 can also be effective against cancer and prevent the recurrence of bladder tumours.
3.Research Progress for VPM1002
Scientists have investigated this further development of the BCG vaccine in a series of studies in mice as well as in several clinical trials. In 2018, a Phase II study confirmed that VPM1002 is well tolerated by new borns and is effective.
The vaccine is currently being tested in a further Phase III study on adult volunteers in India.
The global VPM1002 (Tuberculosis BCG Based Vaccine) for Prevent Covid-19 market was valued at US$ XX million in 2019 and is expected to reach US$ XX million by the end of 2026, growing at a CAGR of XX% during 2021-2026.
