Oct 1, 2020 - Sep 30, 2025
Development of Vaccines for the Treatment of Opioid Use Disorder
Role Description: This contract is to develop an effective adjuvanted anti-fentanyl vaccine via the induction of anti-fentanyl antibodies that will block the movement of fentanyl from the bloodstream to the brain where it can suppress respiration and cause death. The production of vaccine formulation pilot lots will be completed under good laboratory practice (GLP) to support Investigational New Drug application (IND)-enabling activities in preparation for chemistry, manufacturing, and control (CMC) process-development and current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) production grade formulation scaled up, to support animal and early-stage Phase I/II safety and immunogenicity human clinical trials in adults and/or youths with opioid use disorder (OUD).
