Australia & 360biolabs

ideal location for

COVID-19 clinical trials

In one of the first COVID-19 clinical vaccine trials, US-based clinical-stage
biotechnology company Novavax (NASDAQ: NVAX) has selected Australian
speciality laboratory 360biolabs, to conduct sample analysis for the clinical trial
of its SARS-CoV-2 recombinant spike protein nanoparticle vaccine, NVX-CoV2373.

Due to the nature and sensitivities of certain assays used in this clinical trial, a
specialist biosecurity facility is required. With its highly experienced scientists
working in state of the art Biosafety Level 2 (BSL-2) and 3 (BSL-3) laboratories,
360biolabs has the ideal resources and environment to conduct these crucial studies.

“We are thrilled that an organization with the reputation and capabilities of
360biolabs agreed to work with us in this critical clinical trial”, said Gregory Glenn,
Novavax President of Research and Development. “We are confident 360biolabs will
provide timely and appropriate data results”.

As Australia’s only ISO accredited, clinical services organisation, currently working
with SARS-CoV-2, 360biolabs have received global requests for antiviral testing
and clinical trial support. 360biolabs’ wealth of knowledge in the respiratory virus
antiviral discovery and clinical space, ensures the team will delivery high quality,
robust and reliable data.

The Phase 1 trial of NVX-CoV2373 is expected to begin in May with preliminary
immunogenicity and safety results in July.

With fast start-up processes, quality data recognised by global regulatory bodies
and 43.5% R&D tax incentive for eligible companies, Australia is known globally
as a destination for early phase clinical trials.
