There is no FDA-approved vaccine for the potent plant toxin ricin. We have developed a recombinant ricin vaccine, RiVax. Without adjuvant it is safe and immunogenic in mice, rabbits, and humans. Based on our studies in mice, we now report the results of a small clinical trial with Alhydrogel-adsorbed RiVax.
目前尚无美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)批准的针对强效植物毒素蓖麻毒素的疫苗。我们研发了一种重组蓖麻毒素疫苗RiVax。在无佐剂的情况下,它在小鼠、兔子和人类中均安全且具有免疫原性。基于我们在小鼠身上的研究,我们现在报告一项关于氢氧化铝吸附型RiVax的小型临床试验结果。
