In the collaboration with Novartis, the Company's hearing and balance disorders program is focused on the restoration of hearing and balance function through the regeneration of critical cells of the inner ear. In addition to its therapeutic product development programs, the Company is working with collaborators to develop vaccines using its adenovector technology. The Company is currently developing preventative vaccines, including RSV, HSV, dengue fever, and malaria. The Company is developing vaccines against RSV, the single most important viral cause of lower respiratory infections in infants and young children. It is developing vaccines for the prevention and treatment of HSV including HSV type 2 (HSV-2) the virus responsible for most cases of genital herpes. With its collaborators, the Company is generating vaccine candidates for the prevention of dengue fever. Dengue fever is a viral disease spread by mosquitoes that historically affected 50 million to 100 million people each year. With its collaborators the Company is generating vaccine candidates for the prevention of malaria. With its collaborators, the Company is developing vaccine and anti-viral candidates for the prevention and containment of FMD outbreaks. FMD is a highly contagious viral disease affecting cows and other animals with cloven hooves. The Company currently has two suppliers for its clinical manufacturing components, one for human health and one for animal health candidates. Currently it procures raw materials, including specialized components known as resins, for its product purification and testing methods from a limited number of suppliers.
