Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI) has entered the race to develop a COVID-19 vaccine with the announced acquisition of Soluble Therapeutics, Inc. and the subsequent partnership and licensing of a novel nanoparticle vaccine platform recently developed by Dr. Daniel Carter. According to the update, the groundbreaking vaccine technology being developed by Dr. Carter is based on a self-assembling nanoparticle called NSP-10 (NSP is Non Specific Protein), which follows a foundational vaccine platform developed earlier by Dr. Carter and his team, using another self-assembling protein called ferritin (1), an iron storage protein found in all living things. NIH is currently exploiting the ferritin platform in its exploration of the universal flu vaccine which completed phase I clinical trials earlier this year and is currently recruiting for a second phase 1 trial on a modified version of the ferritin self-assembly universal vaccine (2,3). POAI has entered into an agreement with Dr. Carter under which it is licensing this technology, subject to certain conditions. According to Dr. Carter, principal inventor of the ferritin self-assembling nanoparticle platform (1), now widely applied by many, including NIH, to other applications and principal inventor of the new NSP10 approach, “NSP10 is a ‘game changer’ vaccine platform with significant advantages. These game changer properties have also been validated with SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidates – resulting in extraordinary animal titers against the coronavirus spike protein which is required for viral infectivity – all with a simple injection of small quantities of DNA.”
