GeoVax Labs Company

GeoVax said March 18 that they and BravoVax completed three vaccine candidates after making rapid progress with design, construction and in vitro characterizations. The companies will narrow down the candidates to the one that shows the best safety, immunogenicity and protective efficacy in upcoming animal studies. GeoVax and BravoVax aim to advance a vaccine candidate to human clinical trials before year’s end, GeoVax President and CEO David Dodd stated.

GeoVax said it was in talks with, and submitted applications to, the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) and other U.S. and international funding agencies. The company noted that BARDA has $3.5 billion available toward supporting the manufacturing, production and purchase of vaccines, therapeutics, and diagnostics under the $2 trillion Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES ACT), signed into law by President Donald Trump on March 27.

GeoVax disclosed its intent to collaborate with BravoVax, a vaccine developer in Wuhan, China, to develop a COVID-19 vaccine in January.
