Modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA)

numerous human clinical trials for
indications such as measles, malaria,
HIV–1 and MERS to name a few. As
with many vaccines, scale-up and

with the MVA platform. Not only are
current large-scale MVA vaccine
production processes inefficient (such

as the cumbersome use of chick embryo
fibroblast (CEF) cells), but a major
bottleneck lies in limited host cell
propagation options and a lack of viable
continuous cell lines suitable for MVA
vaccine production.
To address this need, scientists at
NIAID have identified a number of key
viral factors in MVA replication in
mammalian cells and developed
methods of modifying MVA viruses in
a way that allows for the growth of MVA
in cells that were previously considered
unsuitable for such purpose. For
example, NIAID scientists observed that
the introduction of a serine protease
inhibitor 1 (SPI–1) gene into the MVA
genome led to more than a 2-log
enhancement of virus spread in human
diploid MRC–5 cells, whereas deletion
of the gene diminished the spread of
host-range extended viruses by similar
extents. Additionally, MRC–5 cells
stably expressing SPI–1 also enhanced
replication of MVA.
This technology is available for
licensing for commercial development
in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37
CFR part 404, as well as for further
development and evaluation under a
research collaboration.
Potential Commercial Applications:
• Vaccine Development: Recombinant
MVA-based vaccine production in nonCEF cell lines.
• Therapeutic oncolytic virus:
Recombinant MVA constructs encoding
oncolytic tumor-suppressor proteins,
pro-apoptotic proteins, cytokines,
immunomodulatory proteins, cytotoxic
peptides, suicide proteins, cytotoxins,
pro-drugs, therapeutic RNAs, etc.
Competitive Advantages:
• Recombinant MVA constructs for
use in non-avian, continual cell linemediated vaccine production.
• Efficient scale-up vaccine
production as a result of higher viral
yield, enhancing epidemic/pandemic
preparedness.
