AdVax is an inter/multi-disciplinary team of individuals who have developed major paradigm-shifting science, research, technology and new clinical data sets demonstrating previously unidentified bacterial infections are able to translocate to the brain and be linked to the induction of Alzheimer’s disease.

We have developed novel and proprietary real time molecular diagnostics to identify these non-culturable bacteria and then apply novel immune refocusing technologies to create both monoclonal antibodies that could be used in treatments and a first of its kind vaccine for the prevention of both cardiovascular and Alzheimer’s disease.

Our program is well on its way to identifying the major disease-inducing bacteria, which are then ready to be put into the immune refocusing technology for the derivation of human monoclonal antibodies and vaccines.
