GonCon™ Formulations Product Profile & Position Paper
GnRH-hemocyanin conjugate immunocontraceptive vaccine formulations have been shown to prevent reproduction in multiple mammalian species for extended periods. GonaCon™ and GonaCon-Equine™ are registered with the U.S. EPA for female white-tailed deer and wild/feral horses and burros, respectively. A study indicating that a GnRH-hemocyanin conjugate immunocontraceptive vaccine had potential for multi-year contraception in cats prompted additional studies including this one sponsored by ACC&D. Work to develop an effective, safe formulation for free-roaming dogs is ongoing.
