AIVITA Biomedical Announces Case Report Suggesting Positive Collateral Benefits in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Achieved Through the Use of Its Dendritic Cell Vaccine Kit

AIVITA Biomedical, Inc. announced the publication of a case report and literature review by distribution partners commercially deploying AIVITA’s Vaccine Kit, describing collateral benefits in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus following vaccination using AIVITA’s anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccine kit.

IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- AIVITA Biomedical, Inc., a biotech company specializing in innovative stem cell applications, today announced the publication of a case report and literature review by distribution partners commercially deploying AIVITA’s Vaccine Kit, describing collateral benefits in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus following vaccination using AIVITA’s anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccine kit. The paper, titled “Significant improvement of systemic lupus erythematosus manifestation in children after autologous dendritic cell transfer: a case report and review of literature” was published in the journal Therapeutic Advances in Vaccines and Immunotherapy.

In the report, hospital researchers deploying AIVITA’s Vaccine Kit but not associated with AIVITA reference AIVITA’s published studies demonstrating that ex vivo dendritic cell incubation with peptides from the SARS-CoV-2 S-protein can elicit an immunogenic response in the body through the response of T cells and B cells. This case report concerns a 13-year-old female patient with lupus who experienced collateral benefits following administration of the kit-made vaccine, suggesting that the dendritic cell vaccine can also control autoimmunity by inducing a tolerogenic response.

About AIVITA’s Vaccine Kit

AIVITA’s Vaccine Kit enables a subject-specific personal vaccine that consists of autologous dendritic cells and lymphocytes incubated with one or multiple target antigens. Creation of the vaccine requires minimally equipped facilities and AIVITA’s ready-made kit of materials. Treatment starts with a blood draw, from which the subject’s own immune cells are isolated and monocytes matured into antigen-presenting dendritic cells, using the Kit. The patient’s dendritic cells and lymphocytes are incubated with antigen and delivered as a single dose of preventative vaccine via a single subcutaneous injection.
