Overview

VaxSen's polio vaccine is a live-attenuated viral vaccine designed to induce protective immunity against poliomyelitis. Developed by VaxSen, a biotechnology company based in Senegal, this oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) contains weakened strains of the poliovirus that replicate in the gastrointestinal tract. This replication stimulates a comprehensive immune response, including the production of systemic antibodies and local mucosal IgA, which is essential for preventing both the disease and the transmission of the virus. The development of this vaccine is part of VaxSen's broader mission to enhance vaccine manufacturing autonomy in Africa and support global efforts to eradicate polio.
