The monkeypox virus vaccine solution is a critical strategic tool for combating the spread of zoonotic diseases like monkeypox. MPXV belongs to the orthopoxvirus genus and is closely related to the variola virus (Smallpox). A successful MPXV vaccine must not only induce a potent neutralizing antibody response but also stimulate a long-lasting cellular immune response to provide cross-protection and durable immunity.
Core Concepts and Challenges:
The high homology between MPXV and Variola virus allows for cross-protection using third-generation smallpox vaccines (e.g., ACAM2000, JYNNEOS/Imvamune/Imvanex). However, the next generation of MPXV-specific vaccines must balance safety and immunogenicity.
Traditional replicating smallpox vaccines can cause severe side effects in immunocompromised populations. Creative Biolabs is dedicated to developing highly attenuated or non-replicating MPXV vaccines to significantly enhance the safety profile.
In the face of an emerging outbreak, rapid vaccine antigen screening, process development, and manufacturing capabilities are crucial for a swift response.
Rational antigen design based on structural biology; gene synthesis and high-efficiency expression of key immunogenic proteins (e.g., A27L, B5R, H3L); high-purity purification and Quality Control (QC) of subunit vaccine proteins.

Background
Amid mpox outbreaks and limitations of current vaccines (ACAM2000's safety risks, JYNNEOS' scarcity), this study developed three mRNA vaccines (VGPox 1/2/3) targeting MPXV A35R (EEV antigen) and M1R (IMV antigen) to evaluate their immunogenicity and protection against lethal vaccinia virus (VACV, homologous to MPXV) in mice.
Solution
VGPox 1/2 encode A35R extracellular domain-M1R fusions (with signal peptide); VGPox 3 mixes full-length A35R/M1R mRNAs. Female Balb/c mice got 10μg intramuscular doses (0/14 days for 2-dose; day 0 for 1-dose). Sera/spleens were tested for antibodies (ELISA/PRNT) and T cells (flow cytometry); mice were intranasally challenged with lethal VACV-WR.
Result
All vaccines induced early anti-A35R antibodies; VGPox 1/2 triggered earlier anti-M1R and stronger neutralizing antibodies. Single-dose vaccines protected mice within 7 days; all showed long-term (5-month) protection. VGPox 2 had best passive protection, outperforming live VACV, supporting their potential as MPXV vaccine alternatives.

We offer comprehensive technology support, primarily including attenuated live viral vectors (e.g., MVA, NYVAC), nucleic acid vaccines (mRNA/DNA), and recombinant subunit vaccines.
Safety is our primary concern. We mainly develop non-replicating vectors (like MVA) and use strict vector engineering to ensure they cannot fully replicate in host cells, thereby significantly reducing the risk of side effects.
Given our mature platforms and rapid response mechanism, if all components (such as antigen sequence, vector) are defined, the process from vector construction to the completion of the preliminary preclinical animal immunogenicity report typically takes 4-6 months.
We provide dose-escalation studies and adjuvant screening services. By combining in vitro immunogenicity analysis and in vivo animal model testing, we can assess antibody titers and T-cell responses at different doses, thus scientifically determining the optimal immunization regimen.
Absolutely. Our antigen design platform can perform targeted antigen optimization and epitope customization based on the sequence data of the latest MPXV strains (e.g., Clades I or II), ensuring maximum breadth of protection and efficacy for the vaccine.
