Generex BioTech Up on Chemical Flu Vaccine

Generex BioTech Corp. (GNBT) chemical-based flu vaccine has a hold on biotech investors.

Generex BioTech Corp. shares are rallying again today, most likely fueled by the June announcement that the company is developing a new vaccine technology not based on biology, but rather, chemistry. As an alternative form of vaccine production, Antigen Express (a wholly owned subsidiary of Generex Biotechnology) can utilize lab equipment to join amino acids into peptides that stimulate an immune response to specific threats, including the flu. If Antigen Express and Generex could develop an H1N1 'swine flu' vaccine with this technology, wide production of such a vaccine could take place soon.

Antigen Express has already assisted in the development of Phase I trial of Generex Biotech's prostate cancer vaccine, which showed positive results. The immunotherapeutic peptide AE37 is also being developed by the company for use as a treatment of other forms of cancer.
