摘要:
The invention relates to compositions, kits, and methods for cancer therapy using recombinant MVA viruses encoding a tumor-associated antigen, such as HER-2, particularly in combination with taxanes. The taxanes can be administered prior to, at the same time as, or after the recombinant MVA virus.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) virus or MVAAE3L delivered intratumorally or systemically as an anticancer immunotherapeutic agent, alone, or in combination with one or more immune checkpoint blocking agents for the treatment of malignant solid tumors. Particular embodiments relate to mobilizing the host's immune system to mount an immune response against the tumor.
摘要:
The invention concern the use of a virus for the preparation of a medicament for the vaccination or treatment of a neonatal or prenatal animal, including a human, wherein the virus is capable of infecting the cells of the neonatal or prenatal animal, including a human, but not capable of being replicated to infectious progeny virus in the neonatal or prenatal animal, including a human. The virus is preferably a Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara. In particular, the invention concerns the vaccination of neonates against infections with viruses belonging the same virus group than the virus used for vaccination. Moreover, the invention concerns the vaccination of neonates against antigens selected from foreign antigens and tumour antigens, wherein the tumour antigen and/or the foreign antigen are different from the antigens associated with the virus. The invention further concerns the use of viruses as defined above to increase the level of factors which activate dendritic cells or their precursor cells and/or to increase the number of dendritic cells or their precursor cells and/or to increase the production and/or cellular content of an interferon (IFN) or IL-12.
摘要:
A liquid or liquid-frozen composition comprising: a modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) virus or variant or derivative thereof and mannitol, wherein mannitol is the sole stabilization agent of the composition. The mannitol may provide a stabilizing effect at 0 to +10° C. or in a liquid-frozen composition, for example between −10° C. and −30° C. or between −20° C. and −23.5° C. The MVA may be used as a vaccine or for use in gene therapy, virotherapy, immunotherapy, or cancer therapy in a mammal, preferably a human.
