What is Vaxxas?
Headquartered in Brisbane, Australia, Vaxxas is a clinical-stage biotechnology enterprise dedicated to revolutionizing immunization through its HD-MAP technology. By targeting immune cells located just beneath the skin, the platform facilitates superior immune responses with smaller vaccine doses compared to traditional intramuscular injections. The technology is versatile, supporting various modalities including mRNA, protein subunits, and live attenuated vaccines. Beyond clinical efficacy, the HD-MAP system addresses significant logistical hurdles by reducing cold-chain requirements and enabling potential self-administration, positioning Vaxxas as a disruptive force in the multibillion-dollar global vaccine market.
