Overview

rintatolimod + FluMist is an investigational intranasal combination therapy being developed by AIM ImmunoTech (formerly Hemispherx Biopharma) for the prevention of influenza, including seasonal and avian strains. The combination consists of **rintatolimod** (Ampligen), a synthetic double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecule that acts as a selective **Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3)** agonist, and **FluMist**, a live-attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) manufactured by AstraZeneca. In this formulation, rintatolimod serves as a mucosal adjuvant designed to enhance the innate and adaptive immune responses triggered by the vaccine. By activating TLR3 without inducing excessive inflammatory cytokines, rintatolimod aims to broaden the cross-reactivity of the vaccine-induced antibodies and T-cell responses, potentially providing better protection against drifted or emerging pandemic influenza strains, such as H5N1.
