Mpox Vaccine Tracker - List of vaccine candidates in research & development

Overview

Mpox Vaccine Tracker: List of vaccine candidates in research & development

Smallpox vaccines have currently have been repurposed and recommended for use against Mpox outbreaks in the near-to-short-term recommendations. This list includes trials related to vaccines against Mpox and smallpox.

The WHO is tracking advances and ongoing progress from pre-clinical research and development to clinical trials of vaccines for Mpox, including repurposed smallpox vaccines.

The tracker provides a summary of:

• Vaccine candidates in clinical or pre-clinical development.
• Information on key attributes of the vaccine candidate.
• Preclinical and clinical study designs.
• Links to published studies/sources.
• Summary of key results from open publications.

We welcome the submission of information about potential vaccine candidates being developed for Mpox vaccines to add to this list or feedback to update the existing content in the spreadsheet.

This database is updated every month and the added material highlighted in yellow.

Data extraction tools and sources:

Data is collated and summarised from multiple sources available publicly such as from PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, WHO ICTRP and registries registered with the WHO and from a network of researchers and industry for new candidate vaccines by screening registered trials for clinical information.
