Weighing the promise of VLP vaccines.

A global vaccine developer wanted a clear picture of virus-like particle vaccines for infectious diseases. We profiled innovators, reviewed the science behind each platform and tested our findings with experts.

The Client

The client is a global healthcare company that develops vaccines and related medicines. It wanted to understand current and future trends, competing technologies and the challenges the field still faces.

The Challenge

Promising platform.
Know the hurdles.

Prescouter was asked to deep dive into virus-like particle vaccines targeting infectious diseases, covering current and future trends, available technologies, unmet needs and the stakeholders developing them.

  • Players

    Innovators and leaders

    Who is developing VLP vaccines.

  • Science

    Platform biology

    How each technology works.

  • Gaps

    Unmet needs

    Challenges still facing the field.

Our Approach

Pairing company claims with the science.

Innovator scan
Leadingplayers profiled

Profile the players

We identified and profiled innovators developing VLP-based vaccines focused on infectious diseases.

Literature review
Scienceclaims checked against data

Check the biology

We reviewed company claims and scientific literature to understand the biology behind each technology.

Expert interviews
Expertshypotheses tested

Test the hypotheses

Experts confirmed secondary findings and covered questions public sources could not answer.

The Outcome

A clear picture of where VLPs stand.

Prescouter presented the leading players and innovators in VLP vaccines, with the scientific and manufacturing pros and cons of each technology. The client gained a clear view of each platform’s development stage and the major unmet needs facing the industry.

  • Players

    Leading innovators

    Mapped across the VLP space.

  • Tradeoffs

    Pros and cons

    Scientific and manufacturing.

  • Gaps

    Unmet needs

    The challenges still to solve.

Platform claims are easy to make and hard to verify. Reading the biology alongside the pitch shows which technologies can really scale.
