Applied DNA updates on COVID-19 vaccine program

Applied DNA Sciences (NASDAQ:APDN) is up 9% premarket on the heels of an announcement related to the development of linear-DNA form of COVID-19 vaccine candidates with development partner Takis Biotech.
The results of linear-DNA dose-response trials are expected in this month.
The companies’ development program utilizes the plasmid-based DNA templates to determine baseline results in preclinical animal models.
Th results are anticipated to reduce risk of antibiotic resistance and genomic integration, and speed of production.
If found to be as efficacious as the plasmid-based templates, the company and Takis will engage a third-party to conduct toxicology studies to generate necessary data for potential human clinical trials of the linear-DNA vaccines.
