Driving the Advancement of Cutting-edge Science & Technology

Novavax is part of a rich history of innovation to help prevent and treat disease, save lives and improve health. Decades of in-house research has led to the development of our proven proprietary technology platform that is leveraged in marketed products used by people around the globe. 

Improving next generation medicines

Both our protein-based nanoparticles and Matrix-M® adjuvant are the basis of our promising pipeline programs and provide a strong foundation for innovation. We have initiated development work on novel Matrix formulations, different regimens and dosing schedules with the potential to further differentiate and potentially improve next generation medicines. We aim to create opportunities for targeted approaches and advancements in therapeutic areas beyond infectious diseases.

Expanding our Pipeline

Beyond COVID-19, influenza and our combination of the two, our approach has yielded four highly differentiated programs in unmet need areas: respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), H5N1 avian pandemic influenza, shingles and C. difficile.

Discovery Driven by AI & Machine Learning

We leverage a discovery model that is driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. This approach enables us to leverage our deep in-house expertise coupled with extensive published scientific literature and modern computational techniques to optimize our product candidates’ efficacy, safety and tolerability.
