COMPANY PROFILE<br />

Virometix is a privately held young innovative Swiss Biotech company developing a new class of vaccines,<br />

which should overcome limitations of current biological vaccines in terms of safety, efficacy, speed, stability and<br />

manufacturing cost. Virometix Synthetic Virus-Like Nanoparticle (SVLP) technology platform offers the following<br />

value propositions:<br />

Safety. Virometix SVLP-based vaccines avoid the use of life pathogens and the safety concerns associated with<br />

the biological manufacturing processes used for conventional vaccines.<br />

Quality. SVLPs are based on a proprietary lipopeptide self-assembly process that leads to atomically defined<br />

nanoparticles with a constant size and number of lipopeptide monomers per particle, which increases the<br />

specificity and quality of the elicited immune response and assures lot-to-lot consistency.<br />

Efficacy. SVLPs efficiently deliver antigens to antigen presenting cells for optimal B- and T-cell responses and<br />

induce antibodies that bind with very high affinity to the native target antigen.<br />

Convenience. SVLPs do not require sonication, refolding, extrusion or similar processes. SVLPs can be prepared<br />

by simply dissolving freeze-dried lipopeptide monomers in a buffer suitable for injection shortly before use.<br />

Virometix develops vaccines for infectious diseases and cancer. Two vaccines are in early preclinical<br />

development. Virometix offers collaborative research and licensing partnerships for selected vaccines and<br />

disease areas.<br />
