Project description
European consortium for coronavirus prevention, immunotherapy and drug discovery
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic is the most serious health threat of this century. The EU-funded CARE project is a coalition of 37 academic institutions, pharmaceutical companies and non-profit research organisations. The main consortium objectives are to develop therapeutics for the emergency response to the current SARS-CoV-2 pandemic by drug repositioning and to address future outbreaks through drug and virus-neutralising antibody discovery. The potency and safety of the therapeutic drug candidates will be assessed in vitro and in animal models. Moreover, virus-neutralising monoclonal antibodies will be generated and immune markers will be identified. The final lead candidates will be advanced into Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials in humans.
