GenVec obtains grant for malaria program

GenVec has received a Small Business Innovation and Research grant from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases of the National Institutes of Health to support the company's malaria vaccine program.

This grant, valued at approximately $600,000 over two years, will be used to develop enhancements to the company’s vectors for vaccine applications against malaria.

Rick King, GenVec’s senior vice president of research, said: “In addition to advancing our malaria vaccine program, work under this grant may provide improvements to our technology that could be applied to other adenovector-based vaccines and therapeutics.”
