Dr. Paul Hallenbeck, CSO and President of Seneca Therapeutics to Present at World Vaccine Congress November 28, 2023

PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Seneca Therapeutics, Inc., announced today Dr. Paul Hallenbeck will present a talk titled “Facilitating multiple deliveries of therapeutic viruses by exploiting natural methods of evading neutralizing immunity”, during the World Vaccine Congress in Santa Clara, CA on November 28, 2023. In his talk, Dr. Hallenbeck will present data on the development of multiple IV technology for SVV-001, a clinical stage oncology product.

“Seneca believes that having both multiple intratumoral (‘IT’) and multiple intravenous (‘IV’) dosage forms of SVV-001 will be important to clinicians,” said Dr. Paul Hallenbeck, President and Chief Scientific Officer at Seneca Therapeutics. “Unlike many oncolytic viruses, SVV-001 has already been safely delivered systemically as a single dose in humans. SVV-001 has also shown efficacy in relevant murine models as a single IV dose and preliminary evidence of efficacy in humans as a single IV dose. We will present data showing several approaches to deliver SVV-001 systemically in a multiple dose IV regimen.”
