BI 1831169 is a recombinant live-attenuated Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (rVSV), modified to replace the VSV-G glycoprotein with the Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus glycoprotein in order to minimize the potential of neurotoxicity for humans and skin disease in animals.
Recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (rVSV) in which the gene encoding for the VSV glycoprotein G has been deleted and replaced with the gene encoding the Zaire Ebola virus (ZEBOV) glycoprotein (GP).
