Italian COVID-19 vaccine shows strong immune response in mid-stage trial

[TaylorSwift 162,322]

Italy's hopes of producing its own COVID-19 vaccine were given a boost on Monday when local biotech firm ReiThera said its vaccine candidate showed a strong immune response and no major side effects in intermediate Phase II clinical trials.

The vaccine, called GRAd-COV2, induced an antibody response against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in over 93% of volunteers 3 weeks after the 1st dose, reaching 99% after the 2nd dose, the company said in a statement.

ReiThera needs at least $71 million to fund final Phase III trials and was dealt a blow in May when a state audit court rejected a plan to pump public funds into the company. 

ReiThera said on Monday that 2 independent advisory boards had recommended advancing GRAd-COV2 into Phase III studies, but did not give an update on funding.

GRAd-COV2 is based on a novel and proprietary replication-defective simian (gorilla) adenoviral vector (called GRAd) encoding the full-length coronavirus spike protein (GRAd-COV2). The spike protein enables the coronavirus to enter human cells.
