MVA-BN-brachyury-TRICOM vaccine

MVA-BN-brachyury-TRICOM vaccine is an investigational cancer vaccine. It is composed of recombinant vaccinia viral vector, modified vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic (MVA-BN), encoding the human transcription factor and tumour-associated antigen (TAA) brachyury, and a triad of T-cell co-stimulatory molecules (TRICOM), which is comprised of the three human immune-enhancing co-stimulatory molecules B7-1, ICAM-1 and LFA-3. These immune-enhancing co-stimulatory molecules exert immunostimulatory and antineoplastic actions. MVA-BN-brachyury-TRICOM vaccine is administered as a priming vaccine, followed by the administration of the fowlpox virus(FPV)‐Brachyury booster vaccine.
