Sponsor's own description

PRIME-2-CoV\_Beta is the first clinical candidate based on the attenuated 2nd generation Orf virus (ORFV) vaccine platform which encodes for the structural spike (S)- and nucleocapsid (N) protein of SARS-CoV-2. The aim of the multivalent vaccine is to broaden the specific immune response against SARS-CoV-2 and to increase the probability of cross-protection against emerging variants.
