Frequently asked questions about FVH1- a DNA-based influenza vaccine

What is FVH1, a DNA-based influenza vaccine?

FVH1 is an investigational DNA-based vaccine developed by Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ticker INO) for the prevention of human influenza. It is designed to be given as a preventive immunization against influenza virus infection and was studied in an elderly population. It is not an approved product and remains in clinical development.

What is FVH1, a DNA-based influenza vaccine used for?

FVH1 is being developed for the prevention of influenza in humans, specifically human influenza and related respiratory viral infections. Its only recorded clinical study enrolled healthy volunteers aged 65 years and older, so the intended use studied to date is preventive immunization against influenza in the elderly.

Who makes FVH1, a DNA-based influenza vaccine?

FVH1 is developed by Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which trades under the ticker INO. Inovio is the sponsor of the clinical program for this DNA-based influenza vaccine candidate.

What phase is FVH1, a DNA-based influenza vaccine in?

FVH1 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It has completed one Phase 1 trial and has no active trials ongoing. It is an investigational vaccine and is not approved by the FDA or any other regulatory authority based on the development stage reached so far.

What clinical trials is FVH1, a DNA-based influenza vaccine in?

FVH1 has been studied in one completed Phase 1 trial, NCT01587131, titled "DNA-based Influenza Vaccine in the Elderly." The trial enrolled 50 participants aged 65 years and older in Canada, used a randomized, placebo-controlled design, and included healthy volunteers. No trials are currently active.

Is FVH1 the same as FVH1, a DNA-based influenza vaccine?

Yes. FVH1 and "FVH1, a DNA-based influenza vaccine" refer to the same Inovio Pharmaceuticals candidate. The longer form simply describes the vaccine platform, a DNA-based approach to influenza prevention, and both names point to the same Phase 1 program studied in NCT01587131.
