Stockhead’s Ashtyn Hiron sits down with AdAlta (ASX:1AD) managing director and CEO Tim Oldham to get the short end of the long story on the company’s latest announcement.
Through its collaboration with La Trobe University, AdAlta’s research has led to the discovery of a new family of i-bodies capable of inhibiting the invasion of red blood cells and liver cells by multiple strains of the malaria parasite.
This is a world-first outcome, representing the first high potency antibody-like molecule capable of such pan-strain (multi-strain) efficacy.
