SIGA Technologies announces the results of non-human primate study suggests ST-246 can be used in combination with small-pox vaccine, and may improve the safety profile of vaccine

Co announces the results of a non-human primate study by the Southern Research Institute that suggests that ST-246 can be used in combination with a well-known smallpox vaccine and may improve the safety profile of the vaccine. The study investigated the efficacy of concurrent administration of ST-246, SIGA's smallpox antiviral candidate drug, and Acambis' ACAM2000(tm) smallpox vaccine in non-human primates. When concurrently administered, ST-246 appears to reduce the size and intensity of the lesion formed at the vaccine administration site while the vaccine still confers similar levels of protection in the test animals compared to animals given vaccine alone, based on a subsequent challenge with lethal doses of monkeypox virus.
