 PROFILE
Aviron knows there's no such thing as a germ-free environ. The development-stage biopharmaceutical firm develops vaccines based on weakened live viruses and genetic engineering technologies. The company's lead flu vaccine, FluMist nasal spray, is awaiting FDA approval. Aviron's vaccines for croup and Epstein-Barr virus (in collaboration with a division of GlaxoSmithKline) are in clinical trials. The firm is also developing vaccines for diseases caused by cytomegalovirus (a leading cause of birth defects), herpes simplex virus type 2, and respiratory syncytial virus. Wyeth Lederle Vaccines, an American Home Products unit, has co-development and co-licensing agreements for FluMist.
