3
IAVI: Strategies Accelerate R&D Promising candidates clinical trials in the South Mobilise public support to AIDS vaccines Awareness, information, political lobbying Facilitate the involvement of the private sector Preserving social objectives (proprietary arrangements) Prepare global access to AIDS vaccines Key part of the comprehensive response against HIV/AIDS Global effort Alliances
4
IAVI: Key Driving Ideas Look for alliances North and South; public and private Create the conditions to conduct sustainable clinical research in, for and with the South R&D and development agendas Prepare for success NOW

HIV vaccines approaches recombinant protein synthetic peptides (V3) naked DNA Viral, bacterial vectors whole-inactivated virus live-attenuated virus
11
What and to Whom? A preventive AIDS vaccine will be given to people uninfected with HIV to train their immune systems to prevent infection or AIDS There is no chance of any preventive vaccine now in clinical trials causing HIV infection because they contain only synthetic copies of portions of the virus, not the virus itself
12
Stages of vaccine research Pre-clinical Biological idea/concept Laboratory development Construction of product GLP In parallel manufacturing (GMP); animal testing Animal testing Toxicity, immunogenicity GLP and GMP identical
13
Stages of vaccine research Clinical Phase I, preliminary –n=dozens; low risk of contracting HIV; safety Phase II, intermediate –n= hundreds; low and higher risk of contracting HIV; more safety, immunogenecity, dosage, administration Phase III, advanced –n= thousands; high risk of contracting HIV infection; efficacy vs. placebo
