Gilnature/iStock via Getty Images GeoVax Labs (NASDAQ: GOVX ) presents updates on its next-generation SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, GEO-CM04S1, including preliminary data from an ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial. The presentations at Vaccines Summit Boston 2023 and CYTO 2023 meetings feature unpublished data from the open-label portion of the Phase 2 trial in hematological cancer patients. Preliminary analysis shows that CM04S1 is highly immunogenic in these patients, inducing antibody responses and T cell responses, including neutralizing antibodies. The Phase 2 clinical study will progress with a direct comparison to currently approved mRNA vaccines. CM04S1 is also being evaluated as a booster for healthy patients who previously received the Pfizer or Moderna mRNA vaccine in a separate Phase 2 trial. Data from both trials will provide insights into vaccine potential in unique patient groups and the general population. ( GOVX ) has risen 2.3% premarket.
