Self-Amplifying mRNA Vaccine Receives EUA Nod From Indian Regulators

Messenger RNA (mRNA) technology has been central to the global response to Covid-19, enabling rapid manufacture of effective vaccines. But the virus continues to evolve, learning to out-maneuver prior immunity, whether from infection or from vaccination. To keep up, researchers and manufacturers alike have been developing the next generation of mRNA vaccines. Here, we take a look at one such example: India’s first home-grown mRNA vaccine, Gemcovac-19, manufactured by Gennova Biopharmaceuticals. The Office of the Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) has granted the vaccine emergency use authorization (EUA), and an Omicron-specific booster shot is already in the works.

      The Pune-based Gennova Biopharmaceuticals is expected to roll out India’s first home-grown mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) vaccine by April 2022. The COVID-19 pandemic awakened the world to the power of RNA therapies — two of the first vaccines that emerged in late 2020, Pfizer-BioNtech and Moderna, used this technology. Now, an Indian company is developing an mRNA vaccine from scratch, signaling possibilities of the use of the molecule in a variety of diseases beyond COVID-19.
