COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING STABILIZED ENVELOPED VIRUSES BY SPRAY-DRYING AND LYOPHILIZATION

Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide for novel compositions and methods for making and using thermostable enveloped viruses. Certain embodiments relate to formulating enveloped viruses alone in a aqueous formulation, or in combination with spray-drying, lyophilization or other drying techniques to reduce degradation and/or preserve activity or titer of the enveloped virus reducing titer loss, prolonging storage stability, delivery, and use. In some embodiments, formulations disclosed herein create a stabilized envelope virus formulation for protection from high temperature during drying processes for an enhanced and rapid drying process for storage, transport and later use of the stabilized envelope viruses.
