  1. International AIDS Vaccine Initiative UK CAB May 21, 2004 Maite Suárez, European Country Programmes Officer

  2. IAVI • International, scientific, non for profit organisation • HQ New York • European offices in Amsterdam, working space in Brussels • Offices in Nairobi and New Delhi • IAVI’s mission is • To accelerate the development of a safe and effective preventive AIDS vaccine and to ensure that once is available it will be readily accessible, especially to those most in need

  3. IAVI: Strategies • Accelerate R&D • Promising candidates  clinical trials in the South • Mobilise public support to AIDS vaccines • Awareness, information, political lobbying • Facilitate the involvement of the private sector • Preserving social objectives (proprietary arrangements) • Prepare global access to AIDS vaccines • Key part of the comprehensive response against HIV/AIDS Global effort Alliances

  4. IAVI: Key Driving Ideas • Look for alliances • North and South; public and private • Create the conditions to conduct sustainable clinical research in, for and with the South • R&D and development agendas • Prepare for success NOW

  5. IAVI: Sources of Funds • Governments (~ 66%) • Canada, The Netherlands, UK, US, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Ireland • Multilateral (~ 3%) • World Bank • Private Foundations (~ 30%) • Bill & Melinda Gates, Rockefeller, Alfred P. Sloan, Starr • Private sector (~ 1%) • Becton, Dickinson and company

  6. IAVI: Expenses 1996-2008 • R&D  77% • Advocacy work  11% • Administrative and general costs 8% • Fundraising  2% • Political lobbying  2%

  7. IAVI’s European NGO Partners • France: AIDES • United Kingdom: National AIDS Trust • Netherlands: AIDS Fonds • Denmark: AIDS Fondet • Germany: Deutsche AIDS Stiftung • Spain: gTt • Sweden: Noah’s Ark • Belgium: Sensoa* * Currently in preparation

  10. HIV vaccines approaches recombinant protein synthetic peptides (V3) naked DNA Viral, bacterial vectors whole-inactivated virus live-attenuated virus

  11. What and to Whom? • A preventive AIDS vaccine will be given to people uninfected with HIV to train their immune systems to prevent infection or AIDS • There is no chance of any preventive vaccine now in clinical trials causing HIV infection because they contain only synthetic copies of portions of the virus, not the virus itself

  12. Stages of vaccine researchPre-clinical • Biological idea/concept • Laboratory development • Construction of product GLP • In parallel  manufacturing (GMP); animal testing • Animal testing • Toxicity, immunogenicity • GLP and GMP identical

  13. Stages of vaccine researchClinical • Phase I, preliminary • n=dozens; low risk of contracting HIV; safety • Phase II, intermediate • n= hundreds; low and higher risk of contracting HIV; more safety, immunogenecity, dosage, administration • Phase III, advanced • n= thousands; high risk of contracting HIV infection; efficacy vs. placebo

  14. Completed Trials UK
