ImmunityBio is pursuing the development of an hAd5 COVID-19 vaccine using S-Fusion and N-ETSD—our novel construct of COVID-19 spike (S) and nucleocapsid (N) proteins. This vaccine candidate generated CD4+ and CD8+ T cell-mediated immunity and neutralizing antibodies in animal models, and inhibition of viral replication in nasal and lung passages in a non-human primate challenge study. On October 13, 2020, the FDA authorized the Phase I, open-label, dose-finding study to examine the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of the low-dose (5×1010 VP) and intermediate-dose (1×1011 VP) in healthy volunteers. In early 2021, we received FDA authorization to study sublingual and oral formulations with a chosen subcutaneous dose
