PharmaJet Receives NIH Grant to Evaluate use of Needle-free Intradermal Delivery for HPV Immunization
The study will compare Tropis intradermal delivery against traditional needle and syringe (N/S) intramuscular administration.
- The study will compare Tropis intradermal delivery against traditional needle and syringe (N/S) intramuscular administration.
- The study, in collaboration with Padjadjaran University (UNPAD) in Indonesia, will begin recruiting approximately 900 girls, aged 9 to 14 years of age in early 2023.
- This follows PharmaJets preliminary studies evaluating intradermal delivery for HPV vaccines.1 Intradermal administration is already widely used for polio vaccine delivery and has been found to be safe, effective, and immunogenic.
- Intradermal administration of vaccines can provide benefits for low resource settings including lower costs, increased coverage, and increased acceptability.
