Overview

PUVA-inactivated whole-cell Campylobacter jejuni vaccine is an investigational whole-cell bacterial vaccine designed to prevent Campylobacter jejuni infections, a leading cause of bacterial diarrhea worldwide. Developed by Blue Collar Vaccines and Therapeutics in collaboration with the Wake Forest School of Medicine and the Naval Medical Research Center, the vaccine utilizes psoralen (specifically the derivative 4-aminomethyl-4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen, or AMT) combined with ultraviolet A (UVA) irradiation to inactivate the bacteria. This PUVA inactivation process creates killed but metabolically active (KBMA) bacteria, which preserves the structural integrity of key surface antigens and enhances immunogenicity compared to traditional formalin inactivation methods. Preclinical studies in mouse models have demonstrated that the vaccine, particularly when adjuvanted with double-mutant heat-labile toxin (dmLT), elicits a robust humoral immune response with elevated serum IgG titers.
