GMP Manufacturing and Characterization of the HIV Booster Immunogen HxB2.WT.Core-C4b for Germline Targeting Vaccine Strategies

This work establishes a robust, scalable platform for HIV nanoparticle immunogens. Consistent quality and yield across scales support clinical development of HxB2.WT.Core-C4b and provide a model for other glycosylated nanoparticle vaccines. The immunogen is being evaluated in clinical study HVTN 320 (NCT06796686), enabling early testing of next-generation vaccines designed to elicit broadly neutralizing antibodies.
