MAXIVAX

MaxiVAX is a Swiss clinical-stage biotechnology company, currently performing a first-in-man (phase I) trial in various tumours with MVX-ONCO-1. MaxiVAX’ mission is to develop alternative solutions to “established cancer therapies” that are more effective, are personalized and enable the patient to fight his own disease. MaxiVAX’ first treatment, MVX-ONCO-1 has been classified as an Advanced Therapeutic Product by the European Medicines Agency. The resulting approval procedure is different than that of a traditional drug and should generally allow a faster development until market approval with fewer and less extensive clinical trials.
