6. Final data analysis once the 

international field trial is completed. 

Any selected industry collaborator, 

depending on the terms of the CRADA, 

would likely benefit by acquiring: 

1. Better understanding of FMD 

epidemiology in the FMD endemic 

country, which may allow for increased 

sales and marketing of a company’s 

current inactivated FMD vaccine(s) and 

FMD ELISA diagnostic kit franchise 

and; 

2. Pre-published knowledge of 

AdFMD vaccine performance during the 

field trial, as compared to the current 

inactivated FMD vaccines; 

3. Pre-published knowledge of the 

ELISA diagnostic performance during 

the field trial; 

4. Understanding of how the AdFMD 

vaccine may be used with a companion 

diagnostic test to better plan and 

execute FMD control and eradication 

strategies on the local, regional and 

national levels; and 

5. Unique perspectives to better 

leverage existing public-public 

partnerships that will focus corporate 

stewardship toward more cost effective 

FMD control strategies associated with 

the United Nations Food and 

Agriculture Organization (FAO) related 

to the FMD Progressive Control 

Programme. 

Period of Performance 

The CRADA will be in effect for 5 

years or 60 months from the effective 

date of the agreement.
