Althea Technologies & Profectus BioSciences Sign Manufacturing Agreement For Plasmid DNA Production
Date:2/26/2013

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Althea Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of biopharmaceutical development and manufacturing services, and Profectus BioSciences Inc, a technology based vaccine company, today announced the signing of a manufacturing supply agreement for plasmid DNA production. Under the agreement, Althea will provide gram-scale quantities of cGMP (current Good Manufacturing Practice) manufactured plasmid DNA expressing IL-12 to assist Profectus Biosciences' ongoing DNA vaccine development efforts, which are supported by a contract from the National Institutes of Health. IL-12 helps prompt an immune response once the DNA enters a cell, which is part of Profectus Biosciences' technology platform designed to overcome the poor delivery and immunogenicity of many DNA vaccines.

"Althea provides an unmatched combination of state-of-the-art facilities and expertise in this area and we anticipate a long and productive association." 

"We are delighted to be awarded this contract, this project has tremendous potential for treating some of the world's most devastating and challenging diseases" stated Rick Hancock , President and CEO of Althea Technologies. "By establishing this partnership, Althea will be able to leverage our plasmid manufacturing expertise to help advance this DNA vaccines program through the clinic and to the patients who need it."
