- The team has executed eight clinical trials, including a seven-country, 12,400-participant Phase 3 trial of a prior influenza candidate, and built, owns, and operates its GMP biologics manufacturing facility
- BiondVax has an exclusive collaboration with the prestigious Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences (“MPG”) and the University Medical Center Göttingen (“UMG”), to develop a pipeline of innovative nanosized antibody therapies

BiondVax Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: BVXV), a Jerusalem-based biotechnology company, is laser focused on developing, manufacturing, and commercializing innovative NanoAb immunotherapeutic products, primarily for treating infectious and autoimmune diseases. Collaborating with the prestigious Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences and the University Medical Center Göttingen (“UMG”), both in Germany, BiondVax is developing a pipeline of nanosized antibody (NanoAb) therapies addressing diseases underserved by current treatments and with large and growing markets, such as COVID-19, asthma and psoriasis.
NanoAbs, also known as nanobodies and VHH-antibodies, are alpaca-derived nanosized antibodies that exhibit multiple significant competitive advantages over existing antibody therapies, including stability at high temperatures, superior binding affinity, more effective and convenient routes of administration, and efficient production.
BiondVax’s highly experienced and successful pharmaceutical industry leadership team includes former senior executives from Novartis (NYSE: NVS), GSK (NYSE: GSK), and Bristol-Myers Squibb (NYSE: BMY). This team plays a vital role in the company’s pursuit to advance nanosized antibody innovation from R&D through commercialization and includes:
