Shigella vaccine

Hilleman Laboratories and ICMR-NICED has tied up to commercialize Shigella vaccine. After signing of the MoU, necessary technology transfer was done to initiate the work. After developing and optimizing the process, MSD Welcome Trust Hilleman Laboratories will be manufacturing the product on a non-GMP (i.e. non-Good Manufacturing Practice) level. And thus NICED continues to work on Shigella Vaccine to make further in roads towards its unexplored areas. ICMR licensed the technology further scaling up and commercialisation to Hilleman Laboratories Pvt. Ltd., meeting at New Delhi on April 23, 2019 at the ICMR Headquarters. BCIL executed the License Agreement with NICED on behalf of ICMR and Hilleman Labs. Shigella vaccine candidate has been awarded a research grant by the European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership (EDCTP). MSD Welcome Trust Hilleman Laboratories will be manufacturing the low cost product, Phase I & II proof-of-concept will be in Africa in 2023.

Profile

Research Experience

Dr. Hemanta Koley is a Scientist F (Bacteriology) at ICMR NIRBI, Kolkata (2004-present). Trained in Physiology (BSc, MSc, PhD) with postdoctoral fellowships at Rutgers, OSAKA Prefecture University and Harvard Medical School, he investigates enteric pathophysiology and designs vaccines against Vibrio cholerae, Shigella, and typhoidal/non-typhoidal Salmonella. He has created multiple small animal models to evaluate classical, subunit, nanoparticle, and OMV/ghost-based candidates, securing nine patents (two pending) and steering a Shigella-Salmonella vaccine toward commercialization via ICMR NIRBI-industry partnerships. Dr. Koley has authored 107 papers indexed in PubMed, supervised 17 PhD scholars, and provided guidance to numerous MSc and MBBS students. His laboratory collaborates actively with groups in Japan, Canada, UK and the USA and has earned national and international awards for translational impact.
 

Research Interest

Our laboratory has formulated next-generation vaccines against major enteric pathogens. We evaluate diverse platforms including live-attenuated, heat- or formalin-killed cells, bacterial ghosts, OMVs, and chitosan-alginate or OmpA/IpaC-loaded nanoparticles to protect both humans and livestock from Vibrio cholerae, Shigella, typhoidal and non-typhoidal Salmonella, DEC, Campylobacter, and Helicobacter pylori. Using finely tuned murine, rat, hamster, guinea pig, rabbit, chicken, and zebrafish models, we dissect the immunogenicity, adjuvanticity, and cross-protection of outer membrane vesicle formulations. Our ultimate objective is to develop a broadly protective, single-dose vaccine that neutralizes the full spectrum of enteric bacterial threats, thereby reducing the global disease burden and antimicrobial resistance pressure.
