摘要:
The present invention relates to modified poxviral vectors and to methods of making and using the same. In particular, the invention relates to recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara-based (MVA-based) vaccine against FMDV infection and to related products, methods and uses. Specifically, the present invention relates to genetically engineered (recombinant) MVA vectors comprising at least one heterologous nucleotide sequence encoding an antigenic determinant of a FMDV protein. The invention also relates to products, methods and uses thereof, e.g., suitable to induce a protective immune response in a subject.

The present invention relates to an improved filovirus vaccine comprising a recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara-based (MVA-based) vaccine against filovirus infection and to related products, methods and uses. Specifically, the present invention relates to genetically engineered (recombinant) MVA and FPV vectors comprising at least one heterologous nucleotide sequence encoding an antigenic determinant of a Marburg virus (MARV) or Ebola virus glycoprotein. Specifically, the invention relates to recombinant MVA comprising Ebola virus glycoprotein and virion protein 40. The invention also relates to products, methods and uses thereof as well as prime/boost regimens of MVA and genetically engineered (recombinant) FPV, e.g., suitable to induce a protective immune response in a subject.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a recombinant poxvirus comprising tetanus toxin fragment C for improved immunogenicity of an antigen and related methods and uses. Specifically, the present invention generally relates to genetically engineered (recombinant) poxvirus vectors comprising a tetanus toxin fragment C (TTC) coding sequence operably linked to a bacterial antigenic determinant as well as to uses thereof, e.g., to affect an immune response in a subject.
摘要:
Compositions and methods are described for generating an improved effective immune response against an immunogen in humans. The enhanced immune response, is obtained by using an MVA vector as a prime and an adenovirus vector as a boost and is characterized by a high level of antibody response specific to the immunogen, and an enhanced cellular immune response. The compositions and methods can be used to provide a protective immunity against a disease, such as an infection of one or more subtypes of Ebola and Marburg filoviruses, in humans.
摘要:
The invention is drawn to compositions and methods for the induction of an immune response, in particular a strong CD8 T cell response, to a specific antigenic determinant without raising a significant antibody response to the antigenic determinant after a first, priming immunization. The method comprises administering to the host a recombinant poxviral vector comprising a transcriptional control element comprising an early and/or late element linked to a nucleotide sequence encoding the antigenic determinant. The recombinant poxviral vector comprises a transcriptional control element comprising an early and/or late element linked to a nucleotide sequence encoding the antigenic determinant. The late element may be stronger than the cowpox ATI promoter in HeLa cells.
摘要:
The invention relates to compositions, uses, and methods for inducing an immune response against a vaccinia virus. The addition of an oil and water emulsion to MVA can vastly increase the B cell response and particularly neutralizing antibodies against vaccinia virus and encoded recombinant antigens. Thus, the addition of an oil and water emulsion to MVA can increase the protective immune response. The invention encompasses administering a dose of an MVA in an oil and water emulsion to an animal, especially a human.
