CanSino, Moderna, Novavax: A list of Covid vaccines under clinical trials across the world part 2
At least 129 Covid-19 vaccines are in the preclinical stage, while 18 are currently being tested on human volunteers. We brings you a list of all the vaccine candidates currently undergoing clinical trials around the world.
SARS-CoV-2 rS by Novavax
The SARS-CoV-2 rS, developed by US-based vaccine development company Novavax, is undergoing simultaneous Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials in Australia.
The full length recombinant SARS CoV-2 glycoprotein nanoparticle vaccine involves selecting a part of the genetic sequence of the virus that produces antigens (in this case the spike protein). This sequence is then introduced in baculoviruses — pathogens that attack insects.
These modified baculoviruses are then made to infect insect cell culture, so that the cells can produce proteins that are similar in structure to the viral antigens. These proteins are purified and converted into parti
