Nuravax Inc., a biotechnology company pioneering immunotherapy for neurodegenerative disorders, has been awarded a $3 million grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to support Duvax, the first dual-target Alzheimer’s vaccine, in its entry into human clinical trials.
Nuravax, in partnership with the non-profit Institute for Molecular Medicine (IMM), secured the award on its very first NIH grant submission, earning top-tier scores. This rare distinction highlights the scientific strength and strategic importance of the Duvax vaccine.
The grant, awarded through NIH’s highly competitive SBIR Fast-Track program, will fund a critical milestone in the clinical validation of Duvax. An initial portion of the $3 million grant has been allocated to initiate the Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating the safety and immunogenicity of Duvax as a secondary prevention therapy, with the remaining funds expected later in 2025.
