UK Vaccine Network (UKVN) - Innovate UK - Vaccines for Epidemic Diseases: Readiness for clinical development and regulatory submission competition
Project disclaimer
Description
This is an Official Development Assistance (ODA) funded UKaid project from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)’s UK Vaccine Network (UKVN) which supports the development of vaccines and vaccine technology for infectious diseases with the potential to cause an epidemic in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), focusing on areas of market failure. UKVN has identified a range of human diseases with epidemic potential in LMICs for which the development of vaccines is a priority. UKVN collaborated with Innovate UK to run a Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI) competition to invest in vaccines and vaccine technologies to address the priority disease families identified by UKVN (including Disease X - a pandemic pathogen that has not yet been characterised). Proposals could address any part of the pre-clinical, non-clinical, manufacturing, or clinical pathway, within a one-year time frame, making technology ready to be progressed further along the developmental pathway. The projects built on work from previous Innovate competitions, including: Innovate Clinical Vaccine Development Competition 2018/2021, Innovate Pre-clinical Vaccine Development Competition 2017/2021 and the Innovate Vaccine Development Competition to develop research across vaccine development. This project was not put out to an open, competitive tender process because, as a non-departmental public body of the UK government, Innovate UK is uniquely positioned to manage research calls.
