Melbourne’s BioDiem and Schering-Plough’s vaccine business unit Nobilon have begun a clinical development program for BioDiem’s intranasal live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV).

The vaccine, named SCH 900795, is composed of three attenuated flu viruses that will be delivered in a single-dose intranasal spray.

The Phase I study will test the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of the vaccine in 120 healthy volunteers.
