Osivax, a biopharmaceutical company developing vaccines to provide broad-spectrum protection against highly mutating infectious viruses, today announced that the first participant has been vaccinated in a Phase 2a clinical trial (NCT06582277) evaluating OVX836, its broad-spectrum influenza vaccine candidate as a booster in participants previously administered with OVX836.
