Mechanism of action

The vaccine uses a modified vaccinia virus vector expressing smallpox antigens to stimulate both cellular and humoral immunity. This approach aims to provide protective immunity against smallpox while potentially offering improved safety and immunogenicity compared to traditional live vaccine platforms. The recombinant design allows for controlled antigen presentation and reduced reactogenicity.
