HHV Solutions

Pre-clinical Model Services for HHV Research

At CD BioSciences, we specialize in providing cutting-edge pre-clinical model services for Human Herpesvirus (HHV) research. Our services are designed to support pharmaceutical companies, biotech firms, and research institutions in advancing the development of antiviral therapies targeting HHV. With our expert knowledge and state-of-the-art facilities, we provide both animal model development and in vivo efficacy studies to enhance the drug discovery process.

Animal Model Development

Animal models are essential for simulating human diseases and testing the efficacy of potential antiviral treatments in a controlled setting. CD BioSciences offers the following animal model development services to meet the needs of HHV-related research:

Rodent Models (Mouse, Rat, Guinea Pig)

We provide a variety of rodent models, commonly used for their genetic and physiological similarities to humans. These models are particularly useful for understanding virus pathogenesis, treatment efficacy, and immune responses.

Rabbit Models

Rabbits are valuable models for viral research, especially for studying systemic infections and evaluating antiviral candidates. Our services include the creation of customized rabbit models suited to specific HHV studies.

Humanized Mouse Models

These advanced models allow the transplantation of human cells into immunodeficient mice, offering a more accurate representation of human immune responses and viral infection.

Non-Human Primate (NHP) Models

NHPs are indispensable for research requiring close physiological similarities to humans. Our services involve creating customized NHP models for studying HHV infections, latency, and reactivation.

In Vivo Efficacy Studies

CD BioSciences also conducts comprehensive in vivo efficacy studies that help evaluate the therapeutic potential of antiviral drugs targeting HHV. These studies include:

Efficacy in Acute Infection Models

Our acute infection models help assess the immediate effectiveness of antiviral treatments during the initial stages of infection. These studies are essential for evaluating viral load reduction, immune responses, and the overall therapeutic potential of drug candidates.

Therapeutic Efficacy in Latency/Reactivation Models

HHV has the ability to enter latency and reactivate under specific conditions. Our latency/reactivation models provide critical insights into how antiviral therapies can manage dormant viral infections, reducing the likelihood of reactivation.

Our pre-clinical model services are designed to provide you with the most reliable and scientifically valid data, ensuring that your HHV drug discovery efforts are well-supported. We work closely with clients to develop customized models that suit their specific research needs, and our experienced team ensures rigorous testing and data collection.

FAQs

Q1: What are the advantages of using animal models for HHV research?
A1: Animal models replicate human disease processes, allowing researchers to study the effectiveness of antiviral drugs before clinical trials. They provide valuable data on pharmacodynamics, immune responses, and viral load reduction.
Q2: Can you customize animal models for specific HHV strains?
A2: Yes, we offer the ability to customize animal models to accommodate different strains of HHV, ensuring that your research aligns with the specific characteristics of the virus you are studying.
Q3: How long do in vivo efficacy studies take?
A3: The duration of in vivo efficacy studies depends on the specific study design and model used. Acute infection studies typically last 2-4 weeks, while latency and reactivation studies may take several months.
Q4: Are the results from animal models directly applicable to humans?
A4: While animal models offer a good approximation of human disease, they do not fully replicate human physiology. However, they are invaluable in identifying potential antiviral therapies that can be further explored in clinical trials.
Q5: What types of data will I receive from your pre-clinical model studies?
A5: Our studies provide comprehensive data, including viral load measurements, immune response analysis, and efficacy evaluations, to help you assess the therapeutic potential of your drug candidates.
