Description
Genetically Engineered Mice for Pre-clinical Evaluation of HIV Vaccine Candidates: The development of novel HIV candidate vaccines generally requires preclinical testing in animal models before proceeding to Phase I clinical trials. Multiple efforts have focused on developing and evaluating innovative platforms and formulations of HIV envelope (Env) immunogens for the induction and generation of a durable and broadly neutralizing antibody (bNAb) response. The goal of this program is to utilize genetically engineered mouse models, such as human immunoglobulin KI or other transgenic mice expressing relevant human genes, to accelerate testing and development of HIV vaccine candidates.
