UK Vaccine Network (UKVN) - Innovate UK - Clinical Vaccine Development Competition (2017-2021)
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 competition to fund research into the clinical development of vaccine candidates and vaccine platform technologies which tackle diseases of epidemic potential in LMICs and globally. The aim of this funding is to progress the development of vaccines for the 12 identified priority diseases, ultimately to support an effective and rapid response during future outbreaks of disease. The competition was open to all applicants able to demonstrate that their product or work has a realistic route to market, whether in the short or long term, and is primarily for the benefit of LMICs. The projects focused on Phase 1 clinical work, building on projects conducted in concurrently run UKVN competitions - the UKVN Preclinical Vaccine Development Competition 2017-2021, and the UKVN Innovate Vaccine Development Competition 2017-2020 - to ensure promising research is awarded follow on funding and can progress along the developmental pathway. 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.
