2015 was a transformative year for CureVac, highlighted by the largest equity investment of the Gates Foundation completed in March and the company’s recent $110M financing (completed November 2015), the publication of peer-reviewed studies validating its mRNA technology platform, and the establishment of collaborative agreements including those with IAVI (International AIDS Vaccine Initiative), the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and numerous vaccine-development projects.

In 2016 CureVac anticipates achieving multiple clinical and operational milestones, including the reporting of clinical data from its placebo controlled double blinded Phase IIb clinical trial of CV9104 in patients with prostate cancer, the start of construction of an industrial scale GMP production facility with 30 million dose/year capability, and the initiation of new clinical programs including those in collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim and IAVI.
