International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB) and Sun Pharmaceutical Industries and its subsidiaries or associate companies have signed an agreement for development of a dengue vaccine, targeted against all the four serotypes of Dengue virus that cause disease in humans.
ICGEB has developed a tailored recombinant virus-like-particle (VLP) based tetravalent dengue vaccine, containing host-receptor binding domain of envelope protein of all the four DENV serotypes.
