BioSpectrum Asia
|October 2024
Hyderabad-based Indian Immunologicals Ltd (IIL) has signed an agreement with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) on September 12 for clinical development of India’s first codon de-optimised live attenuated Zika vaccine.
According to the Ministry of Health, as on July 22, 2024, 537 Zika cases were registered. Since no vaccine exists for Zika, this collaboration represents a crucial step in safeguarding public health against this emerging threat. In an interaction with BioSpectrum, Dr K Anand Kumar, Managing Director of IIL shares the latest developments and future goals of the company related to their vaccine portfolio.
IIL launched India’s first codon de-optimised live attenuated Zika vaccine in collaboration with ICMR. How significant is this for the Indian public health landscape?
