About us
Vaxcyte is a vaccine innovation company engineering high-fidelity vaccines to protect humankind from the consequences of bacterial diseases. The Company is developing broad-spectrum conjugate and novel protein vaccines to prevent or treat bacterial infectious diseases. Vaxcyte’s lead candidate, VAX-24, is a 24-valent, broad-spectrum pneumococcal conjugate vaccine being developed for the prevention of invasive pneumococcal disease. Vaxcyte is re-engineering the way highly complex immunizations are made through modern synthetic techniques, including advanced chemistry and the XpressCFᵀᴹ cell-free protein synthesis platform, exclusively licensed from Sutro Biopharma, Inc. Unlike conventional cell-based approaches, the Company’s system for producing difficult-to-make proteins and antigens is intended to accelerate its ability to efficiently create and deliver high-fidelity vaccines with enhanced immunological benefits. Vaxcyte’s pipeline also includes VAX-31, a PCV with an expanded breadth of coverage of greater than 30 strains; VAX-A1, a prophylactic vaccine candidate designed to prevent Group A Strep infections; VAX-PG, a therapeutic vaccine candidate designed to slow or stop the progression of periodontal disease and VAX-GI, a novel preclinical vaccine candidate being developed as a preventative treatment for dysentery and shigellosis. Vaxcyte is driven to eradicate or treat invasive bacterial infections, which have serious and costly health consequences when left unchecked.

Today, we shared our Q4/FY 2024 financial results and business update, which reflect a transformative year for Vaxcyte. We continue to make meaningful progress across our adult and infant pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) programs, comprising VAX-31 and VAX-24, reinforcing the potential of our carrier-sparing platform to set a new standard in protection against invasive pneumococcal disease. We are also advancing our early-stage pipeline, including candidates targeting Group A Strep and Shigella, which, along with Streptococcus pneumoniae, are among the top antibiotic-resistant pathogens requiring urgent solutions. At Vaxcyte, our mission remains clear: to deliver broad-spectrum vaccines that address significant unmet needs. We are optimistic about the strength of our science and the broad understanding of the critical role vaccines play in protecting global health.

We’re pleased to share our third quarter 2024 financial results and business update as we continue to build momentum across our broad-spectrum pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) franchise, VAX-31 and VAX-24. We believe the recent topline results for VAX-31 in adults demonstrate its potential as a best-in-class PCV to provide protection against both currently circulating and historically prevalent strains while setting a new standard for immunogenicity. We are well-positioned to maintain continued positive momentum across our PCVs, including the advancement of multiple adult and infant clinical studies and key steps to ensure global manufacturing readiness for the large, well-established pediatric population and the expanding adult market. https://lnkd.in/g2_eKHna #Vaxcyte #PCV #Vaccines #PublicHealth

Today we announced positive topline results from the Phase 1/2 study of VAX-31, our 31-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) candidate, in healthy adults aged 50 and older. We are exceptionally proud to share these results, which we believe validate VAX-31’s potential as a best-in-class pneumococcal vaccine capable of raising the bar for immunogenicity standards. The public health community continues to highlight the need for broader-protection vaccines to prevent invasive pneumococcal disease, which is associated with high case-fatality rates, antibiotic resistance and meningitis. To address this need, VAX-31 was designed to increase coverage to more than 95% of IPD circulating in adults 50 and older in the United States, with the potential to provide significantly greater coverage relative to today’s standard-of-care adult PCVs. We want to extend a sincere thank you to everyone involved in this program, especially trial investigators, trial sites, study participants and the entire Vaxcyte team.
