AdJane Unveils Mucosal Booster Strategy for Respiratory Vaccines

Delft – September 15, 2026 -- AdJane Biosciences has published a white paper outlining a strategy to add mucosal immune stimulation to existing intramuscular respiratory vaccine regimens, using its clinically validated Nm-nOMV platform derived from Neisseria meningitidis outer membrane vesicles.

AdJane targets the mucosal gap left by intramuscular respiratory vaccines

Current intramuscular respiratory vaccines induce strong systemic immunity and protect against severe disease, but generate limited protection at the respiratory mucosa, the point where pathogens first enter the body. The company's white paper, titled 'Boosting mRNA: Mucosal Immunity and a Platform Beyond It,' argues that mucosal IgA responses can reduce transmission at the point of entry, a target public health bodies are pursuing alongside severe-disease prevention.
