The company leverages proprietary technology platforms to create intranasal vaccine candidates and novel therapies targeting liver diseases and metabolic disorders. Altimmune’s approach emphasizes the stimulation of both systemic and mucosal immune responses to address unmet medical needs in infectious and chronic conditions. Among its lead programs, NasoVAX is an investigational intranasal influenza vaccine designed to provide broad, long-lasting protection through a single, non-invasive dose. This candidate is being advanced in collaboration with the University of Alabama at Birmingham and is supported by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. In parallel, Altimmune’s HepTcell program aims to treat chronic hepatitis B by eliciting targeted T-cell responses capable of clearing infected liver cells. Altimmune’s AdCOVID™ platform uses a replication-incompetent adenovirus vector to deliver vaccine antigens directly to the nasal mucosa, and it is also under evaluation for additional respiratory pathogens, including coronaviruses. The company maintains a pipeline of preclinical programs in liver and metabolic diseases, reflecting its commitment to harnessing immunotherapy and vaccine design across multiple therapeutic areas. The company’s leadership team combines extensive scientific expertise and operational experience in vaccine research and development.
