Find Clinical Drug Pipeline Developments & Deals for BRII-179
Through the acquisition, Brii will get access to focus on the development of VBI-2601 (BRII-179), a protein-based HBV immunotherapeutic candidate intended for the treatment of chronic HBV infection.
VBI-2601 (BRII-179) is a novel recombinant, protein-based HBV immunotherapeutic candidate that builds upon the 3-antigen conformation of VBI’s prophylactic 3-antigen HBV vaccine candidate and is designed to target enhanced B-cell and T-cell immunity.
Under the collaboration, Brii Bio expanded its exclusive license to VBI-2601 (BRII-179), VBI’s HBV immunotherapeutic candidate, to global rights and acquired an exclusive license for PreHevbri, VBI’s 3-antigen hepatitis B vaccine, in the Asia Pacific region (APAC).
VBI-2601 (BRII-179) is a novel recombinant, protein-based HBV immunotherapeutic candidate that builds upon the 3-antigen conformation of VBI’s prophylactic 3-antigen HBV vaccine candidate and is designed to target enhanced B-cell and T-cell immunity.
The data demonstrate that BRII-835 (VIR-2218), an small interfering ribonucleic acid that mediates RNA interference, results in dose-dependent reduction in hepatitis B surface antigen in Chinese patients with chronic HBV infection who received two doses of BRII-835.
The data demonstrate that BRII-179 (VBI-2601) provokes responses in both B cells (antibodies) and T cells of patients with chronic hepatitis B infection (HBV), and was well tolerated, with no signal detection safety.
BRII-179 (VBI-2601) is a novel recombinant, protein-based immunotherapeutic candidate, which is being developed and led by Brii Bio in partnership with VBI Vaccines (“VBI”) for patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.
