Biovest International, Inc. (Biovest) is a biotechnology company focusing primarily on the development of BiovaxID, a patient-specific, anti-cancer vaccine focusing on the treatment of follicular non-Hodgkins lymphoma, or follicular NHL. BiovaxID is a customized anti-cancer vaccine that is derived from a patient’s own cancer cells and is designed to utilize the power of the patient’s immune system to recognize and destroy cancerous lymphoma cells, while sparing normal cells. The Company produces this vaccine by extracting some of the patient’s tumor cells and then replicating and purifying the antigen that is present only on the surface of the patient’s own tumor cells. Biovest is conducting a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial for BiovaxID in patients with the indolent, or low-grade, form of B-cell follicular NHL.
