Drug intelligence / Profile preview
This investigational vaccine is an acellular pertussis (aP) booster, often formulated as a TdaP vaccine (including tetanus and diphtheria toxoids), developed by Novartis Vaccines (now part of GSK). Its distinguishing feature is the use of a genetically detoxified pertussis toxin (PTgen), specifically the 9K/129G mutant, rather than the chemically inactivated toxin found in traditional vaccines. This genetic modification preserves the native protein structure, potentially enhancing immunogenicity. The vaccine also includes other pertussis antigens such as filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) and pertactin (PRN). It is designed to prevent pertussis, tetanus, and diphtheria in adults and was evaluated in Phase I clinical trials to compare its safety and immunogenicity against licensed comparators.
